Out of the 19 units from the series, how many did you get? My magic number is 0 (zero), XD because HCM-Pro always come after Gunpla for me, and with the increasing number of items appending to the already very long to-buy list, my HCM-Pro choices just got pushed more and more downward ^^;
My favorite HCM-Pros are Sazabi Metallic Coating Ver. and Exia (not from last year's list).
