I've honestly stopped coming on here mainly due to wanting to avoid news of waves being released or new exclusives. While it's nice to get so many figures released it's also a curse. I'm about ready to hang up my collecting hat once the new Jean Grey and new Vulture release at which point i will merely pick and choose the odd figure to buy.

Yeah I know what you mean. I'm starting to just focus on certain lines and am getting rid of everything else. I'm losing interest in Marvel Legends, so I'm getting rid of most of them and I've completely given up on DC (like how many Batman's do I really need, lol). Even for Transformers, I'm going to get rid of most of my CHUG figures and concentrate more on MP, 3P, and Seige (Seige might eventually go out the door too). Figuarts is something that I still really want to collect, mainly because they don't overwhelm you with releases.
But, still, with rising costs, too many releases at once, and poor distribution, this hobby takes up way too many resources
