You are more than the sum of what you consume.


Yeah, I might enjoy the hobby, but it doesn't rule my life.

I'd get a little worried myself if everything I thought of pertained to Transformers.


Well, there's nothing else for me to think about.

I can't think of a better reason that this.

Unfortunately, this is one reason I collect. As much as I hate the fact that I do it, it is easy for me to give into this kind of 'peer pressure'. It's too easy for me to jump on the bandwagon of whatever is a hot collectors item at the time.


Indeed. I frequently stop collecting G1 for whatever line is 'hot' right now. So it's not all nostalgia and warm childhood safety.

Dear Jeebus, I've been interbreeding!
