I hear you.
I have all of G1; but much of it was collected at a time when market prices were way less than they are now (1985-2005). And a lot of the toys are both fragile and expensive to replace... and kinda dated.
They're on display.
I pretty much scoop up every cartoon-era character that shows up with modern engineering. More poseable and... well the plastic isn't 30+ years old!
Welcome.
