    Since this weeks botcon I feel burt out from transformers.

    I, for some reason have no interest in transformers.


    I'm not sure if it's a passing thing, but I was wondering if anyone else feels this way.

    Nope, still kicking.

    I still have some TF's to pick up. Also, I'm waiting for the Encore reissue Convoy and Starscream.

    I wasn't at Botcon, but I am burning out slowly.

    I like collecting, but sometimes I think to myself ... "wtf am I going to do with all of this stuff?"

    I used to after seeing the new movie but as soon as I heard more classic transformers are being made then my fandom came back also hearing the news transformers 2 was being green lit that helped too

    I'm as excited about Transformers right now as I ever was. This is a great time to be a collector!

    This is the wrong place to ask this question!

    I was hoping to get out after the movie, but everything I've heard about the next line and the return of classics is really good, so maybe I'll stick around a while longer.

    Same here my wife doesn't get it. I keep telling her I grew up on these toys and I will be passing them down to my son but she still gets aggravated about it.

    Nope, but I am only a G1 vin5tage collector mainly on US relsed stuff. I might go over to Japanse G1 later but for now its vintage G1 US and repaints.

    New stuff is cool sometimes but nothing I will collect.

    collecting is like your ugly, oversexed girlfriend.

    you keep wanting to break it off, but the butterface, she love you long time.

    No. More excited than ever after the product panel. Even cautiously optimistic about the Animated stuff.

    Hmm...not burnt out...more like overwhelmed...so many old TF, current TF and new TF coming out that I want with so little funds available...

    I hate having to pick and choose only those I can afford...

    I'm getting that way alittle bit but my wife i'm sure is more burnt out then me. If she ever knew what i spent on them then i'm sure i would have to sell a lot of stuff. But now that i've heard about more classics, i'm going to see the movie wedensday and my Botcon stuff is on it's way to me i'm getting really excited.

    Ya know, I'm having the same thing happen to me. I'm looking at all my figures and thinking "It was cool at the time, but now it's meh" Good thing I saved a lot of my receipts and I'm really slow to open stuff up. The rest is going to eBay. My clone army is going to shrink very fast in the coming months. Which means more money for TFs!!!

    Not burnt out, but I am taking a break between now and Classics 2.0. Not really interested in the Movie figures or TF: Animated. I will complete my Alternators collection and get the last couple of Titaniums.
