Thanks.

I collect because I get a thrill at buying things. it makes me happy. Also I have to have something to look forward to. Granted I could do that with some other collectible but I've been into the X-Men for 30 years this year, and the Avengers nearly 20 (got into them over Heroes Return and then bought back issues of the first run.) SO I've got a huge invested interest in Marvel properties as well. Also at some point I'm going to actually play with them. Yeah, I said it. I don't care LOL. I will sit by 40-something butt down and get out my figures and make up storylines to my hearts content...whenever I have the time which I haven't had yet. I am just a big kid at heart.

As far as collecting them for value, no. No interest there. What I buy I buy for me and have no intention of parting with it as long as I'm here. And after I'm gone....they're gonna have to bury or burn it with me. Nah, just kidding I will will it to someone who has kids that would enjoy it.
