If you have nothing to trade, you've got no business in Bartertown.

– The Collector

The Collector was in charge of Bartertown's trade and exchange network. He was portrayed by Frank Thring.

Biography[]

The Collector mans a post outside the gates of Bartertown, allowing only people with trade goods to enter. When Max Rockatansky asks to enter the town to reclaim his stolen belongings, the Collector scornfully refuses, prompting Max to attack him for the insult. The Collector realizes that Max could be useful in Aunty Entity's struggle for control of the town, and escorts him inside.

Personality and appearance[]

Like Dr. Dealgood, the collector is a town notable and an important person, close and allied to Aunty Entity, which explains his patronizing and haughty demeanor. He is quite fat, which is rare in an apocalyptic city, and has many small valuables (monocle-magnifying glass, pendant, chain mail). The blow he receives in the games during the hearing of Max, will remind him a little of the humility that his position requires.
