What are the best 'must-have' bp's for a beginner collection?
Being new to the world of BP's, I know what I visually like. Those are the ones on my wish list, and the one's I'll need to either save for years to get or win the lottery to purchase,  ! Right now I'm just building my collection and starting with mostly het's so I can hobby breed in a few years to get what the morphs I want or like. Mind you, I'm doing it because I absolutely love BP's and want to build up my own collection, not because I want to make money.
So that being said, what does everyone feel are some 'must-have's' for a beginner collection? Again, I know it's all opinion, but I'd really like some experienced opinions, rather than just my own opinions. 
0.1 Dinker (Goliath), 1.1 Het Ghost (Hercules & Athena), 1.0 Lesser (Titan), 0.1 Het Albino (Arya), 0.1 Wild Caught (Cleopatra), 1.1 Het VPI Axanthic (Perseus & Aphrodite), 1.0 Albino (Midas), 1.0 Butter (Samson), 0.1 Spider (Delilah), 1.1 Mojave (Apollo & Pandora), 0.1 Yellowbelly (Venus), 1.1 Het Pied (Isis & Osiris), 1.0 Bumblebee (Orion), 1.0 (Poss G Stripe) Pied (Spartacus), 0.1 Normal (Bandit), 1.0 Albino Burm (Caesar),2.1 Dogs, 0.2 Cats, 0.0.1 African Dwarf Frog, 0.0.2 Vicious Fishes, 1.0 child, 1.0 husband
In Loving Memory: 1.0 Pastel Zeus, 0.1 het Albino Anya
I'm a girl, I have snakes, I have tattoos, and I have piercings.
The more I talk to humans, the more I prefer my snakes.

Re: What are the best 'must-have' bp's for a beginner collection?
I'm still pretty new to the BP thing, but other than a normal, I think a bumblebee and a lesser are really good starter morphs. One bee and one normal can get you normals, pastels, spiders, more bee's, and from there you can get super pastels, killerbees. With the lesser you can get queenbees. They aren't the cheapest morphs you can buy, but I think that what you can get from a bee and lesser are worth the money.

You have all of those and you can work on some fantastic combos.

If your intentions are to build your personal collection and to not sell or make money then it's simple. Get what you like and can afford. If your intentions are to breed and sell then still work with what you like but stay in the codoms. All the recommendations above are good ones. Some of my personal favorites are lessers, black pastels, pinstripes, YBs, and pieds (recessive but a must have).
