Actually, I find a lot of times, I get bored of a toyline easily. Like a new movie may come out and it'll spark my interest and I'll buy a bunch of toys but then realize that I don't like it as much as I originally thought I did, or at least the interest isn't retained. This fickleness usually works out for my local charities. For example, when the TMNT CG movie came out, I flipped for TMNT and bought a bunch of movie line figures and two Cowabunga Carl vans. Don't get me wrong, the toyline is amazing but I didn't have the room to display them so I gave all the figures away along with one of the vans (still have one). Part of me feels bad because I spent a bunch of money on toys but then it just feels like I'm buying gifts for the needy so it makes me feel a bit better. lol. Parting with the toys isn't always easy, though. It's the little hoarder in me saying "well, you might find room for these later!" I just gotta say "Chris, let them go!". Honestly, after they leave my hands, I usually don't even think about them which leads me to believe that my "need" to acquire somehow exceeds my "need" to hoard.
