Same Figure

Just how many of the same figure is enough for you?
Got a few doubles of the same figma's but that's only because I received them that way ^^;
Used to buy two Gundam Fix Figuration sets many moons ago though.

I only have doubles on one figure, and it's Nagato from the Petit Nedoroid set.

It doesn't hurt to have same types of figures...
Like Konata says"It's always good to 3 of each!!!!!"

Is that 17 of the same Haruhi nendoroid I see there? O_O
♦College Student♦
Maybe if something is a limited edition then I'd probably get 2. (Brag rights :3?) One is enough imo.

Given figures aren't exactly put through daily stress on a regular basis... just one is fine. Unfortunately for me, I made the mistake of not announcing loud enough I have a Nagato Yuki figma to everyone and ended up with an extra Nagato Yuki figure...

Most invoke Konata's rule: One to use, one to keep and one just in case. ^^
For me I like to have two of some figures. Probably my fav. Figmas are a good example of wanting two.
I think GFF is a little different since you could often make more than one version with two GFF's. I think that is why I only buy the Metal GFFs now.

I only have figures (Nendoroid and Figma) that have been release in is own unique box. With that said I have two Nagato Figma, one in her school uniform and the other as a witch (non WF version).
The collection above does stand out. and luv it
http://darkdam.deviantart.com/
woah sure even I have like 3 or 4 of the same figure, but nothing like 9 haruhi times 2. That's just a little OD, but it looks great.

oh I meant 3 or 4 the same for some of them, like nendoroid Miku, not all of my collection.

I only have one duplicate figure, and that was because of a Christmas present. It worked out in the end- I just kept it in the box, for safe keeping. As for other figures, I have one each. I figure if a Figma broke badly enough that I couldn't repair it I'd probably re-buy, however.
As for model kits, I like having a couple- I can build and paint them up slightly differently, and try different things with them.

One is enough for me, but I do have 2 Fate T. figmas. i wouldn't mind having doubles of figures I really like though :).

One will do it for me. I don't really see the need to have any more than that...

No. This is way overkill. o_O I can't stand having two figures of the same character, let alone two copies of the same figure. It's such a waste of cash - I can think of so many better ways to put that money to use. Other figures, games, gadgets, savings...
Heck, even charity when you come down to it.

Only doubles I have is a bunch of trading figures, that's it. Anyone want a bunch of Kira and Athrun trading figures? ^^; But yes, lack of money and variety doesn't allow me to buy doubles. Variety meaning that I want different variation of a character instead of the same ones.

Oh shit! that's something serious, I mean, to collect that many Haruhi's 0_o.
But after all "about taste there's nothing written" and who am I to criticize someone if I have my owns vices.
And about the picture, the only one that called my attention's Tsuruya-san... kawaiiiiiiiiiii.

I'd say 2 of my fave figures would be more than enough.

for your favorite figures, no harm getting 2 =)
1 stays in the box, other one gets touched and molested...sorta

Why on earth would anyone spend money on more than one of the same figure? Actually I can think of only two reasons: one's that it's rare and you plan on selling it later and second is one for playing and displaying and the other is kept in the box forever.

True, but if it's a buy-one-get-one-free promotion, I'd get 'em.
Never bought a figure, but having keychain(s) are good enough for me. And even keychains are expensive. I think it was about 15000 wons (KRW; $15.00 USD) for my Rin (FSN) keychain.
Student
Goodness... Why so many Haruhis? I could understand buying that many if you were going to sell them. But if you're going to sell them, why are they out of the box? There are some strange people in this world... :D

I think that if you were prone to breaking figures, having multiples would be a good idea, or just a lot of spare parts for them. My collection of figures is small, so I would prefer to get a bit of variety before I start picking up repeats.

I used to buy doubles but times are too hard and these things cost to much to buy more than one nowadays. One of the more pricier doubles I've purchased was Daiki's Koyori.

With that many, i think sharing is essential, i happily welcome any unwanted duplicate figures ;p
Anyways i haven't got any duplicates, i'd rather spend the money on getting another figure in my collection, but I suppose if it was seriously cheap i'd consider it, incase anything was to happen to one.

I only have one of each kind (and sometimes only one of each character) mostly because if I have too many everything looks cluttered and the figurine itself can't really shine. That's especially dangerous when you have too many, so it's always best to not rush into buying too many figures.
Student
For me two is the max, though usually I stay with one.
Injured
I think that in a few Gashapon tiny tradeables I got the same ones. Was trying to get Kos-Mos from Xenosaga in bikini and failed. One or two of those also were not fully painted so I got even more of a rare item in a way. Socks were not painted and were brown on one. For Kos-Mos probably would collect 2 of each regular figurine but they are like $120 USA each always to get. /sigh

1 is good. i dont see the point of having more than 1 of the same fig...

One extra copy of my favorite figures would be enough...
Wow, Haruhi army. 1 is enough for me, but extras are welcomed^^

I always only get one. If I had more money to blow on this particular hobby, then I would get two because right now I don't get to open mine.

one is enough for me too. but if i had more than one, then i would start selling them off. unless its a castoff type figure. then one for clothes on and one for castoff.

I can hardly afford one of every figure I want, let alone two. It might be nice to have an extra of a particularly awesome or limited figure, but I'd rather just spend the money on other figures that I don't already own.

The furthest I'll go is a colour variant of something with the same pose. It would have to be something absolutely amazing to warrant getting more than 1 of it, in which case I'd justify it by having a display and a sealed figure.

Err. I don't think i will want that many. Maybe 2 is enough for me. One to display and play with, the other to be keep in box as backup. I don't mind keeping few deplicates of figma though, i want to bring them out without worrying the risk of breaking them.

2 is good but only for figmas or something.

Got a mutiples of marmit stormtrooper and a few other 1/6 star wars troops but really try and keep to one per character.
One for me...unless I love it so much or you can display it differently, then maybe 2, but I feel it is a waste of money buying the same one. If I was hardcore enough collector or just rich, I would probably buy one to display and one to keep in box, but currently I would not spend my money like that since I don't have that much money ; ;

I have a few different figurines of 1 character, does that count? Buying more than one just seems a bit wasteful to me, if you take care of your figurines (simply cleaning with a brush) you won't have to worry about replacing it at all. If some strange things do start appearing there are various PVC figurine-care liquids out there for emergency situations.
