I may not buy Tf MPs which I had been collecting and just buy a um prime or equal to be centre piece and that's it.
Half of my collection is in another house so. I know I never be all lost.

I'd hope I'd have insurance and I'd just call it a day.

I would not replace many. Once my life was back on track I would continue to pick and choose Transformers as I have no strict collecting rules.

If I lost everything I'd be devastated as whilst I haven't had my figures since I was a kid several of them have sentimental attachment for various reasons which could never be replaced.
I probably wouldn't replace my entire collection but like Jazzcomp be more selective and probably only replace a few choice pieces... ones that I can rebuild memories with or that just make me genuinely smile - like Ultimetal Prime - If I'm having a bad day all I have to do is walk past that figure and he brings a smile to my face.

It seems the overwhelming majority of people wouldn't completely rebuild their collections, but would either call it a day.... or just buy a few select pieces.
I know this is a pretty sombre thread, but I like how it makes you question yourself.... and how much your collection means to you.
It's been interesting to read everyone's thoughts so far..... thanks for posting

I would bail on collecting and buy a nice Mercedes with the insurance money
I still function.....................while killing threads. ;-)

I would use it as an excuse to stop collecting. My collection keeps expanding and I am severely lacking in space to the point that everything from 30th Generations onward (and I have pretty much collected both Takara and Hasbro versions) remains MISB or MOSC and in boxes.
