I Kind of Like that G.I. Joe's on a Break *gasp*
 
It's okay, it's okay. I'll explain.

I used to have a good-sized 25th Anniversary collection, but I ended up selling it because I was starting a new business and needed the money.

When I think back to that old collection, there were a lotta duds. Don't get me wrong, there were some really cool figures too, but I was clearly collecting just to collect. Now, thanks to the lull and lack of "newness," I can look at past figures and be a whole lot more selective.

After getting the 1985 figures in Modern Era form, of course. Because there are a few duds in there, too :eek:

So, how about you? Are you enjoying the hiatus? And if so, why?

Have fun, all!

Pause in Joes
 
Im pretty happy there is not much going on right now.Money is tight since im currently in the middle of a custody battle. 😖There are a few kickstarters I want to back,but cannot do that either.I can say I have a little saved up for a few new figures,but thats about it.So yes,I am glad there is a pause in sales.

I don't really buy modern, doesn't affect me much. I like to see what's going on, so now things are boring.

Also, I've no money to spare for toy collecting besides cheap stuff.

I am happy...
 
...because I have money to spend for Transformers "Generations", "Combiner wars" and "Titan returns".

I'm using this time to re-equip my figures with Marauder gear.

I am just focusing on WW2 stuff now since I lucked out with a local source lately. I have to be select with G.I. Joe purchases as they are a bit pricey and not easy to come by anyway.

I haven't bought anything since the 2nd movie. Been mtf since they did their 1st Kickstarter. I kinda have everything I want /need for my stories.

That would be cool. Need to get some jeeps too. Also a German convoy to keep blowing up.
