Definitely get yourself some vintage Gillette razors such a Tech, any of the Super Speeds, or an adjustable. By the way, your setup looks pretty good so far.
+1 except you mentioned collecting so I'd say get them all...

Thanks again for all the advice guys! This is truly one of the miss informative and helpful forums I've seen!
that being said, I placed a couple orders and should have some stuff coming that will fulfill some of your recommendations. I've got a Merkur 37c, Prosaso red and greed, Maggards babershop soap, RozoRock Don Marco Bergamont Neroli soap, D.R. Harris Arlington AS, Seomgue 620 & 830, a Maggards 24mm Synthetic brush, Maggards alum, and Fine lather bowl all one the way to me this week and I'm still waiting on a bunch of samples from The Shave Den.Needless to say I went a bit nuts a Maggards, lol, but I'm very anxious to try all of it!!
On top of all that, I got a very generous offer on a SE razor from a fellow Missourian so I'll be giving those a shot soon as well!
Thanks again for all the useful advice. I'll keep y'all posted on how it all works out for me and thanks for the new addiction! Lol
+1Semogue 620 is my personal favorite brush all together. Ymmv, but that's a major bang for the buck. A more aggressive razor is a good idea too!
Lots of good gear there. Have you tried Captain's Choice AS splash yet? Lots of good flavors from which to choose.
