My toy collecting manner has waxed and waned over the years - maybe because I've been a 'fiction first' person for as long as I can remember.

I sold off a bundle a while back. Those that I sold (or attempted to) had been from an era when I was buying Transformers pretty much because they were Transformers, rather than due to any particular like of the figure or character.

These days I collect a lot less, months could go past without a figure popping up that interests me (of course, like buses, after that long wait, six might turn up all at once).

I actually kind of like this better as I think I end up with stuff I really want or like rather than simply 'amassing numbers'.
