    Pay bills... stupid stupid bills..... That's what I do when I've reached my collecting goals. Currently the bills are keeping me from getting stars in my eyes on any figure.

    +
    New roof on my house: $Thousands
    +
    New truck payment: $toodamnmuch

    Last time I had a quiet moment regarding third party masterpiece figures I ended up buying X-Transbots Ollie! This one purchase made me realize just how bad my addiction was and is.

    This is what I'd recommend. I personally love when my preorder list is getting short (never been empty yet and I only collect 1 version *mostly* of each figure I want).
