Kinda. I stay on top of the news and pick up what I like. I can't afford o go at it like I use to. I would love to be able to go out and buy everything I want, but I will never be a completest again. That was stupid. I never could complete the last line I wanted to. That was Alts. I never found Camshaft, and I am not willing to pour the money out that is required to obtain him....

The only reason I haven't purchased many tf's lately is bc there isn't much out there I want (ie, rotf for the most part doesn't interest me) or I can't find it (animated arcee and cybertron ratchet).
I'll probably be picking up some pcc, and classics dirge of course.

I have found ratchet, but I want Arcee. I am finding out she is a hot commodity for scalpers....

Since its been slow with the Transformers I have turned my attention to other things like any DC items DCUC,JLU,IH and the DC Direct of the Blackest Night figures
Star Wars has slowed down but I do want all the ESB vehicles including the AT-AT.Right now I have been hunting for Animated Arcee but haven't been able to find her

For the most part I no longer collect. I still try to pick up a few of the G1 reissues and when money is better I will get a few G1s from ebay. But for the most part what little spending money I do get goes to my computers. I just set up a 4 PC network to use in studying for for my MCSE.

What do you guys think of the new stuff coming out (powercore combiners, war for cybertron, generations, etc)? I think a lot of it looks good, especially pcc.

Power Core Combiners, I just dont like it, dont get the concept, I prefer any Generation figure.

I saw a couple of these at the store the other day, I just did not get it and did not feel it was worth wasting money on. Also, its good to see you posting again, I dont feel so lonely anymore. lol If you like computers, check out my computer and networking section.

I'm pretty excited about some new stuff coming out, even from the rotf line (highbrow, tomahawk, and terradive look great), so I think my tf collecting will definitely be on the upswing the next few months.
And we haven't even seen the prime toys yet!

Wow, it looks like it was yesterday when I used to post here....Regarding me? My collecting habits have changed drastically since this thread was opened...I use to have a huge collection that covered from G1 to Generations and Combiners Wars. Sold most of them since the last year, only kept Beast Wars and MP transformers. And like most of you, Im not as active on colecting as I used to be for several reasons. To number them:
1. Money: Im a proud father of one and husband as of 2009 and want to keep that way, so no more excesive spending for some time now. 2. The quality of the product: Lets face this fact, for 20usd you dont get the same quality of lets say, 2006 anymore. Call it economics, inflation, whatever, thats a fact and I tried it when collecting Combiner Wars and had the chance to compare them to say, some deluxes from the Armada trilogy, even the movie ones seemed to have more weight on them. 3. Dont know how to call #3, but my TF taste have changed since I got masterpieces, where I rather have 1 masterpiece than 10 deluxes. Sounds rather silly, but things are the way they are.
