You should at least try to sell it, but giving up on collecting is fine.

>>11687590
selling it would take time and effort, I'm positive I wouldn't get the same sort of satisfaction

>>11687592
Just set yourself on fire then, ya fuckin Debbie Downer.

>>11687594
that sounds awful

>>11687584
Say it the same as ever other week when some makes this damn thread.
Box it up. Put it away. For 5-10 years. Eventually you will either be happy you kept it and enjoy it again or you'll be ready to just chuck it or bulk sale it or give it away. Give yourself time to figure out which one is the one you want to do

>>11687615
I literally just pulled it out of storage and feel this way

>>11687584
i'm sure you have some store that buys used toys and nerd shit. just sell it all at once and get some money back. maybe not at cathartic as burning it all down and letting the fire cleanse you. but it's gonna be a nice little perk to maybe go see a movie or get some beers

>>11687673
no i think i'd probably want to set the store on fire in the process

to be clear this isn't about money at all it's about being overwhelmed by useless garbage

>>11687678
alright bro just burn them, shit dude.

>>11687695
we understand it's not about money. we're trying to suggest more beneficial ways to do what you want. its a bonus. you get rid of the shit and rid yourself of this feeling, and you also get some extra cash for something that may be more fulfilling for you.

>>11687584
You are just easily swayed by the opinions of others. It’s fine, most people are.

isn't Sam Hyde a pedo? why did you post him?

>>11687780
His goal is to flood the catalog with youtubers, thats always been their goal.

>I'M GONNA DESTROY IT ALL I'M LITERALLY THE JOKER
Chill out faggot. Sleep on it and maybe consider selling them off or giving them to some kid. Destroying them would be a dick move.

>>11687780
>isn't Sam Hyde a pedo?
No, he's the Las Vegas shooter.

Excuse me, it's called ephebophilia

>>11687584
Holy fucking shit. Why is this board full of such overly dramatic little girls that have midlife crisis tier meltdowns over collecting fucking toys. I can't stand that I have to share my hobby with such mentally ill drama queens. God fuckin damn. You little niggas need some real problems.

>>11687678
>>11687592
>>11687584
I agree that you should set yourself on fire

It would be the most cathartic solution of all.
Plus has the added bonus benefit that you wouldn't be around to continue flood this board with your shit, low quality bait threads.
Even better and even more beneficial to society at large would be the actual benefit that there wouldn't even be the accidental chance you might breed more future imbeciles, just like you!

>>11687584
>that's frivolous and wasteful
OK who's the fucking girl who turned you into a commie? That is such a commie thing to say. I've been collecting probably longer than you've been alive, and never lost the love of the hobby.

>>11687584
They're toys. Play with them, you dummy lol

Getting real sick of these shitty "I'm a tourist who started collecting during covid and now I realize I never actually cared about this hobby" posts. No one fucking cares what you do with your own shit. Just stop being a bunch of faggots and bemoaning about your existential crisis to your therapist. You need to start paying me if you're going to vent all your gay little problems to me.

>>11687584
I've had those feelings but then they pass. I mean we live in an era where stuff like this exists. For me its Lego was shit in 50s. Lego exist in the 1800s. Lego will be shit and made from biodegradable slop in the future. But right now, Lego is good and I'm living in the right time to be able to have Lego in this world. Ive thought about selling my stuff but then I think about the hassle and the shipping and how I probably wouldn't make my money back. But at the same time I bought this stuff because I wanted it and what soothes the dread is realizing this type of thinking and that leads to buying less figures or toys that I don't need. Before I used to buy almost every type of set. For years now I just buy what I really like and hope for the best that FOMO doesn't set in for certain toys/sets. Plus I have other hobbies, so those other hobbies get a more spread attention now and I feel rounded.

>>11688016
Also at least donate your stuff instead of destroying it. Yeah, it's your property but even if you donate it to some place like goodwill there is a big guarantee that a kid or another collector will want your stuff.

>>11687584
Why would you want to set it on fire?
Usually normal people just reach a point where they are happy with their collection and just store it away

>>11687584
I boxed up everything when I moved and haven't put it back out. In fact, I like not having all this shit displayed on shelves and collecting dust. Stuff I buy, I open mess around with it then put it back in the package. There's stuff I haven't even opened yet. Stuff that looked cool, but didn't really care when I finally had it in hand. I still like action figures, but there really hasn't been much I felt I really "need". Doesn't help companies don't make what I want. The only nostaliaslop they release now from my childhood is stuff I don't care for anymore.

>>11687584
You shouldnt set your toys on fire anon. Just give them away

>>11688030
>Doesn't help companies don't make what I want.
Which is.........?

>nostaliaslop
Nostalgia is a huge driving factor in this industry. It may not interest you because not everyone has a sentimental personality. That's alright. There's nothing wrong with that.

Okay, for example The Real Ghostbusters. Loved it when I was a kid, had the toys. I just don't care enough about it now to buy the new ones even though they look cool.

TMNT is another. So many new figures based off the old cartoon, which I also loved and had many figures. I almost bought the "remakes" by Super7, but it was purely driven by nostalgia and "I had thing as a child". I realized I wasn't actually that interested in owning them.

It just sucks there is stuff from my childhood I would love to be made/remade but it hasn't and likely never will be. I'd have to "make my own" by designing and 3D printing, but that's never gonna happen.

>>11688509
>It just sucks there is stuff from my childhood I would love to be made/remade but it hasn't and likely never will be.
Examples............?

>>11688562
The original Resident Evil games. They haven't even made figures for the remakes.

>>11688005
I've been into this stuff way before covid, I had to reset in 2013 and some of the first ones i picked up were the SH Figuarts Rangers and the really early Dragonball figures. I think it's just the volume of stuff I've acquired overwhelming me, it just feels so fuckin stoopid to have this stuff sitting around.

>>11687584
Burning plastic ... is that a good idea in the first place?

>>11688588
There's statues from the remakes, but they're expensive. Personally I wouldn't mind getting one if it weren't for the price.

>>11688666
No. It releases toxic fumes.

The most real point Fight Club makes isn't anti-consumerism or anti-masculinity that there's a bunch of men who want their life to have some greater meaning and structure and desire some big cinematic moments where you can put clean chapter breaks in your life.
The fact that your first thought is to burn things instead of doing something normal like selling them or giving them away, and the steadfast refusal to do so, shows your thirst for melodrama you think would satiate you more.
You probably imagine it'll be some cool and poignant visual where your shadow is against the fire while the high heat quickly sears and melts through plastic dramatically, but in truth you're still going to be a skinnyfat dork in his late 20's/30's setting what will look like kids toys on fire like some bored teenage cretin who can only entertain himself with arson. You will not feel satisfaction, it will not feel cool. The fire will be pathetic and the burn will take far longer than you thought and you'll be left with half melted plastic slag you'll have to still dispose of after, or at least still look at as you leave it in the woods.
A normal person does not think like this. If they have something they know is of value, (and given you post here you certainly aren't some boomer giving away his perfectly fine car to Cash 4 Clunkers for $50 because they don't do any research) they will either try to make some money back on it or at least give it to someone who may appreciate it. But you desire destruction because you relate to life like movie visuals.

>>11687584
just give it away at the nearest orphanage you larping FAGGOT

>>11687584
maybe you could try playing with your toys?
if you need an adult way to play with them that isn't hot glueing it, you could try to make a stop motion animation with them
you could even set yourself on fire and use yourself as lighting for the stop motion, but it wouldn't be very good since fire flickers and might smoke up your studio

>I'm curious if this happens sometimes to anyone else here or if I'm an outlier and actually should set this stuff on fire.
I think definitely, it does.

I've been collecting for 20 years and only now gotten around to getting cabinets that can hold my whole collection, while I've previously had large chunks boxed up an any given time, and you end up with a bit of a, "hmmm, so that's everything..." kinda feeling seeing it all in one place, like if I lost the whole collection in a fire I don't think I'd replace most of it.

But I've been very active in selling big chunks of my collection off over the years to get it down to a (relatively) small size, and now keep to a general 'one in one out' rule. It'd probably be worse if I had everything I've ever brought, all the stuff I have now I really like.

>buy toys
>get angry

Why don't these losers ever post the collections they're pretending they hate? I'm curious if there's a pattern or if it's just the same faggot making the same thread every two weeks when his manic depression spikes.

I would bet the most depressing toy line to collect would be either Marvel Legends or Masters of the Universe, since they're both reliant on recognizable characters more than aesthetics so there would be days where it's just a bunch of mediocre Walmart tier toys of random people in gaudy costumes from dead franchises. DC Multiverse could also be frustrating but Todd is finishing the best quality figures DC has ever had and unlike Legends it's ending, so for better or worse the line has a resolution and what's made is what's made.

>>11694017
Sorry kiddo, but I don't buy action figures for the sake of buying a cool toy. I buy action figures based off characters. I'm not going to buy something from an IP that I don't care about just because it looks kewl.

>>11694021
Are you having a schizo episode?

>>11687780
The fbi went to his house back when that shit was going on, nothing came of it. He fucked a chick who was technically legal but it was still questionable. You can call him a pedo but it wont make any difference. The girl involved in that whole thing is embarrassed by it.

Imagine thinking burning toys if the solution to anything. Are you a weirdo who enjoys the stench of burning plastic?

But feel free to do it if it's just Funko crap.

Uhhh its a funny youtube video, you autist. Destroying expensive things is a classic youtube video genre.

>OP thinks that happiness comes from outside himself

You will burn them enjoy a few days of feeling like you have "turned your life around" then the humdrum and boredom of everyday life will set back in and you will move on to the next distraction.
