    I'm certainly slowing down but I don't think I'm slowing to a stop. I don't have any interest in the Prime or Animated figures coming from Legacy, just G1 and Unicron Trilogy. I'll keep buying the ones I care for, but I'm not feeling any reason to be a completionist with the current line.

    I'm truly considering it,but there's so many aspects to life that keep me collecting. I know I need to stop within the next decade,and I've gradually slowed down my collecting pace due to me reaching many of my original goals (g1 season 1,then g1 season 2,then 86 movie and season 3,ect) but I'd say unless they do a mp animated line I'll probably be out of the active collecting market come 10 years or so

    I'm pretty much done at this point. I was collecting Marvel Legends pretty hard and heavy but between the fact that my dream list of characters has been fulfilled, and they're increasing their prices I'm having to choose between giving up toys or comics and since comics are my first true love it's time to stop. I plan to get the rest of the Insecticons if/when Hasbro does them and maybe Blitzwing if I can catch him on sale or something but I'm pretty much done.

    I have been. I was moving over to 7” DC the with McFarlane and sold some of my 6” figures. Kinda regret it as what I want has been made as unobtainable Gold Label releases. Also sold some Transformers I have no sentinel attachment and were replaced in the WFC line. Sold my Bandai Power Rangers to stick with Hasbro’s releases. And sold Marvel Legends that have replaced on the shelf.

    Like I said I’ve been losing interest and primarily collect anime Funko Pops now as they are quite easy to afford and the only things fun to hunt for now.
