I will only collect a figure here and there as it fits into my already existing collection. I will make customs of figures that never get made and if Hasbro eventually gets around to making a better one than I did, I will swap them out. But as far as hard core collecting (buying everything in sight) will not happen again for me. I have a baby on the way. I will be sure that he/she (we aren't finding out till birth) loves Joes and I am sure that we will buy some for him/her. But Daddy will only buy for the collection when a must have figure comes out (i.e. Low Light)

I'll never stop but I know there will come a day when what they produce will not interest me. I didn't get any sigma 6 because I wasn't into it. If Hasbro is smart they will always have figures or a line that appeals to nostalgia. That way older fans will pick up a figure from time to time.

I don't really consider myself a "collector". I like to "play" with my toys. As a kid, everything came out of the box and stickered up. File cards were cut and placed into a recipe box. Blueprints were pinned to my wall using thumbtacks. Now that I'm an adult, I "play" a bit differently. I'm getting into refurbishing, modding and customizing. For me it's like model building. Except with toys that I know I love!
My methods are simple. If there's something new that comes out that I like and can "play" with. I'll buy it. If not, I won't. And if that resource runs dry, there's always the old school stuff!!!
