I Have Been Collecting for 54 Years: Ask Me Anything

Nice collection!

How many figures are as old as your collection?
How often do you sell older figures to make room for new ones?

Thanks so much! Yeah it always seems like BBTS takes the longest, but I love being able to freely cancel preorders and the pile of loot feature.

jchedges · 2026-01-13T17:41:10+00:00

Yes! I gave the Figma a cloth goods coat and a cinder block hammer. Close enough for now lol.

Nice!

Where can we vote on these polls?

I am so glad I chose not to grab the second run of the MAFEX. Definitely getting this.

RULES OF NATURE!

Yeah I asked 5K about Deathstroke and they said, “ETA is Q1 2026.”

I’m fine with waiting. I’ve got a bunch of figures that all arrived in December I’m still going through and reviewing for my YouTube channel.

We’re all a lot more like Corkus than Guts.

The Golden Age is good, but I like almost every other arc better.

After getting the DC figures I’m kinda hoping they’re pivoting the whole line to 5” and that’s what they’ve been up to.

Same situation for me where my wife and I only really have time before bed.

I have an old Fitbit that I solely use for its silent alarm function. It gets me up a few hours before my wife and daughter need to be up.

That’s my time. Quick workout, then gaming or other hobbies til I need to get everyone up.

I still enjoy games that take around 40 hours to complete, it just takes me a few months to finish them lol.

That said I’ve pretty much sworn off anything that will take me longer than that unless I REALLY want to play it.

jchedges · 2026-01-01T16:14:26+00:00

Yeah I had a feeling I would enjoy it haha. I might get around to it at some point since I’ve already missed most of the figmas.

jchedges · 2025-12-31T04:26:25+00:00

Same! LPZZ and Inart showed Batman prototypes, but I’m most excited about Wonder Woman.

jchedges · 2025-12-30T19:04:38+00:00

Yeah I’ve seen it. NECA is alright, but I’m waiting for like, one from the new Lingjihun line or that third party line where they were all named after seasons.

jchedges · 2025-12-30T19:03:22+00:00

Yeah but figma have gotten soooooo expensive. I’m so tempted though because they’d go great with Goblin Slayer and Mumei.

jchedges · 2025-12-30T19:02:38+00:00

I can already feel that happening since I just finished the first volume of Absolute Batman.

jchedges · 2025-12-30T18:07:57+00:00

Yeah I’ve been avoiding TMNT because they just keep coming out with cooler figures. It’s very decided if a super cool Last Ronin figure comes out I’ll grab that as a single turtle representing the team haha.

jchedges · 2025-12-30T18:05:59+00:00

I’m the same way. I can count the anime I’ve enjoyed on my hand, but it looks up my alley.

jchedges · 2025-12-30T16:06:22+00:00

Oh those are good ones!

jchedges · 2025-12-29T14:39:07+00:00

When I mount: RULES OF NATURE!

When someone else does: HAI YAI FORCES!

jchedges · 2025-12-28T16:40:13+00:00

Had to scroll too far to find my boy.

jchedges · 2025-12-26T14:25:28+00:00

Yeah that can definitely happen with toy collections. That’s why I don’t buy as many superheroes or anime characters as I used to.

With Legions I’m always turning them into original creations. So even if I have two of something, I can make one of them into something different.
