How do you know it's time to move on from Transformers collecting

[UltraMarginal]

Awww - I didn't know you were having a kid - congrats dude! Best thing you will ever do!

The time thing is a major factor. Take my last shipment from BBTS. 5 Generations toys, 2 Masterpiece toys and AM Frenzy. So far in the 3+ weeks I've had these figures I've only gotten around to opening MP-G2 Sideswipe Between a job, a 16 month old and a hobby farm, I'm lucky if I get around to opening one figure a fortnight. Hell - my Kreo Menasor and Computron have been sitting on a shelf unopened since Dec! So yeah, your concerns are pretty valid.

I still haven't unpacked (I have opened the box) a BBTS shipment from December. I have found my interest to be dropping off a bit. But that is mainly due to time as I have a few other things going on in my life that take priority. I still have some TPB comics in the plastic sleeves that I haven't read either. I feel guilty sometimes and then I realise that I am still a fan of Transformers I am just time poor. Also the basis of my collection (Generations/Classics/Whatever you want to call it) is pretty much complete at the moment.

If only there was some way I could get someone to pay without having to work, that way I would have a lot more spare time and I would be able to finis sorting out my TF room.

Congrats Shirokaze, great news about the little one.

Huh, i'm married, no kids, I only live 10 minutes from work and I still only manage to open maybe one toy a week on average. I've been buying faster than I open for years now. I need to open more because they take up less space but then, I'd also need to move some off display into boxes.
My Phantom comic stack of unread grows steadily, I'm nearly two years behind at the moment, when we go away I burst through 5 - ten issues at a time but otherwise it's something I don't get around to anywhere near often enough.

I suppose time poor is part of it, perhaps time management for me is a bigger issue.
