I have found that smaller displays look better than the walls of clutter I used to have.

Walls of clutter have their place...

No doubt they do! Although my walls of clutter were invading the hallway, a nearby bathroom, and our living room!

Mine do too, except the bathroom... I try to keep my toys out of the bathroom area. :shock:

And I, in like fashion, try to keep my bathroom out of my toys...

I love the joy collecting brings. But I am not a completist/completionist by any stretch.

I can't understand the drive to get EVERY ONE like that guy on PlasticCrack.com. Just obsessed.

I buy only what I want, which happenes to be only 1/700th of all the TF stuff ever produced.

But I admit, I DO want the Robot Masters Victory Leo and Star Saber, only because I am NOT paying $300+ for each of the original versions!

But if it feels like a problem, it needs to be controlled. If it is not interfering with your LIFE, then, by all means, go forth and purchase...

Me too, as a general rule! We just have a little shelf in there that was used as a temporary display areafor a short time. Still, it was a sign that things were getting a little out of control.

I know how you feel, Puncher. I got the KISS Rod when it first was released so it was cheap but now... The SDCC doesn't have Lil' Dumplin' (that's what I call her) so that's a plus. But the real reason I bought it was the fishing rod. I thought it was the coolest. I never found a Mirage so its the only version of that mold I own too.

Let me put which will make you feel dumber: buying it now and realizing in 6 months you didn't need it or realizing in 6 months you want it and having to pay through the nose for it? I always try to feel good about something like that. Hedge my bet so to speak. I'd feel worse buying it later than I would having it on the shelf. I got Nemesis Prime last year so I'm good this year. And if I change my mind later I'll be content with the KISS Rod. Reprolabels has a flame set for him anyway.

Exactly the way I do things. I'll always buy the TF in question if I have any inkling that I could possibly want it. Best case scenario, I get it when its cheapest. Worst case, it goes on ebay for a premium. Either way, I win. I just keep them MISB until I decide one way or another to preserve value.
