What is everybody's here? Mine is a 1995 variant Boba Fett with stripes on the hands instead of dots that I bought at a sci-fi convention back in 1996 and then had the card/package signed by Jeremy Bulloch the actor who played Boba Fett in The Empire Strikes Back and Return of The Jedi who was part of the convention. My friend who I went to the convention with was so jealous that I got the thing signed by him.

Probably my 12" Sagat figure. Not worth anything, but it's fucking badass.

Masterpiece Transformers are always badass (though the Megatron takes over an hour to transform according to DCompose). I'm interested in the upcoming Grimlock.

Right now I guess I'd have to say my Leader class Megatron from the Transformers Animated line. Ultra Magnus'll probably usurp that role once I get him though.

Right now its a Monster Hunter figure. It's actually kinda girly ( i guess it's based off some weird tween girl toy line in Japan) but it's a female hunter in full 'ian gear with a Tactical Blade....best 15 bucks i've spent in a long time. Up until then it was my Diablo figure.

The McFarlane Movie Maniacs version of Ash from Army of Darkness is also one of my favorites. I honestly prefer Evil Dead 2 to AoD but the figure is basically from both movies. The balance between horror and comedy that Evil Dead 2 hit was perfect. I found myself laughing out loud at stuff that probably was not even meant to be funny.

Then logic dictates they're not your most prized.

Out of all my Batman statues/figures, my favorite is probably the Scarecrow from the Hush series:

Although, my Two-Face from Kia Asamiya is pretty awesome too:

I agree with this. I had the evil ash vs ash 2 pack at one time. macfarlane's robocop is also a pretty sweet figure.

Sathien logic fails in the situation of those that I am willing to part with
That is that I am not willing to part with other things in my life, and thus they are less prized then those things. Also, I do see the point in that, so much as most prized, they would be less so since out of the list they are the ones I would part with, but then for me it comes in to a question of prioritizing my list, or which is most prized. This is the mental gymnastics my fucking brain does all the damn time. It can be a real pain in the ass. I apologize.

My original Lando and R2-D2, a realistic Joker 'Dark Knight' figure (my friend who works at Toys R Us had to lie to an employee to buy it for me), Slash by MacFarlane, Judge Dredd and Don Corleone, and my 18 (?) inch Eddie from The Number of the Beast cover.

All of you picked action figures? Mine would be my NES or my Pokemon cards.

But you can't do anything with Pokemon cards by yourself except do some sort of goldfishing (MtG term) or stacking them like a house of cards.

My 80's vintage Darth Vader that has voice action in the box. Someone donated this to the Marines for "toys for tots". I know, I stole from poor kids, but what the hell are poor kids gonna do with a vintage Star Wars figure? They got Jar-jar toys instead. (Evil Laugh)

Wow. This is tough, My first few toys are actually broken or lost by now.
So I'd have to say...my Beast Wars Silverbolt (I loved that toy. Still have it. Minus a feather misslie), my Batzarro action figure, or... Image

I am going to redo this come summer. I am going to strip the paint, resand it, fix the pants to it can bend at the knee and then repaint it.

My Generation One Megatron reissue; I always wanted him as a kid but wasn't allowed to have guns and then I never wanted to spend a ton of money on a vintage or reissue one. Until I found the reissue at Newberry Comics for $70 and without the blaze orange cap he's supposed to have in America.
