Ok, I was today trying to see if there is something new tf or JLU in the stores....nothing. There are some cybertrons, and I know this will be the same of the other lines (I have X transformer and I need Y tranformer who wont be available, aka Wingsaber), then I checked another store to see more of the same and then when I was driving my xar to my home, and listening some salsa music, I tought "hey this is the end", mean I have some other things that would need my attention other than unavailable toys.
Now, after 10 years of collecting, I'm calling it even, I'm getting rid of what I dont want, I'm gonna give it away to charity or toys for tots.
I dont know whats happening, maybe I'm getting into new interests, I'm kinda getting into a relationship, and its time to thing in the future. I'm keeping just a small amount of my collection as a memory of what I did in a stage of my life. I do have good memories, like the beggining of RID, when I did a 250+usd haul in one day, when I got into the american comics comunity back on 2001, etc.
This has been a great time, but I think I'm evolving into something elses if there is such thing. Most of you must know that I'm not from US, but although I'm not feeling the high price of the gas yet (2.85usd a gallon) I know this will become an issue. I use to do some amazing hauls, but thats in the past.
Thanks everyone who took the time to know me, Jay, Jeremy, Kyla :)and some others, maybe I keep posting here, but I'm quiting all the other places, because if I'm not collecting, what I'm gonna talk about?Wheather ;D
Bye

Hey RC. I know what you mean on the collecting front. My collecting is no where near what it was 2 years ago. I have other priorities now, like my twins. They are 26 weeks now and will be here soon.
But like Gman said, this is not a TF only board, so there are other things that you can talk about. Things like a new PC or Console game, the latest movie you watched or just anything. Since I am cutting back on TF collecting, I was thinking of getting back into building plastic model kits. So I will be talking about that here. So there are lots of things to talk about.
But if you have made up your mind and feel it is best to move on, I just want you to know it has been good to have you here and you will be missed.

I feel the same way, but I decided to try and not totally quit...At least come visit and chat and let us know how you are doing!
Congrats on the relationship! That does tend to dominate ones time, bt hopefully you will change your mind and stick around! It's been fun having you around!

Thanks, but I wont be "totally" gone, but just out of the collecting scene. However I'll stick around as you said, I still like to read reviews about new toys over the internet, I enjoy to see images of new pieces, findings, etc.
I love this place I cant deny it (did I spelled it right?) so quitting posting is not what I'm gonna do right now.
