But at the same time, if my dad turned over a super sweet collection of anything to me now, I'd do some crazy celebration dancing!

So it makes me think it's worth holding onto something that was this valuable to me (not monetarily, but just as a passion) in case the kid shares my love for Marvel in any form. And heck, come 4 years old they may just inherit the entire thing to play with as they wish because seeing them happy with toys outweighs my hobby. (minus sdcc and super rare stuff I can't replace easily of course :P But that'd just be until they were older.. because we all know how we played with toys when we were 5! lol)

This is something that's been heavily burdening my conscious as of late, but in the end, I still think they sit where they are instead of sell. I won't get nearly as much $ as they bring me (and hopefully my kid(s)) happiness.

So, are you having a boy? because if you're having a little girl, she might not be on board with your plan to give her your collection, haha. All kidding aside though, I think it would be pretty cool of you to hand over most of your figures to a little version of yourself, and if you take the time to teach your kid about the characters, they will love them. I have a little sister that is much younger than I am, and she lit up when I gave her a Spiderman doll and some Spiderman socks. We are superheroes to these kids,and they just tend to appreciate anything we do for them. Kudos.
