Have any of you bought toys and figures and ended up regretting your purchase(s) later down the road?
In the 90's I went on a several year-long spending spree buying Star Wars, Star Trek, Starting Line-up, Spawn, Hot Wheels and practically anything hot and collectable. Years later, I've amassed a HUGE collection and have a storage FULL of toys that I don't have the space to display. Much of my collection is crap I don't really collect. They were toys I bought because they were hot at the time, chase or 1-per case figures and now they collect dust and have become havens for spiders in storage. Even worse, most of that stuff is worthless and can't be given away on eBay. The link in my signature (cheap plug ) isn't even a fraction of the toys I own.
Currently, I've become more judicious and have been sticking to Green Lantern related purchases, although the DCUC C&C figures have gotten their fair share of my money... and with the Blackest Night set, it's hard to stay exclusive to Green Lantern with the release of the Guardians and what not.
Just wondering how things are for other members of this forum. Are there things you've bought on a whim and ended up regretting it later on?
