If not for prices, and to some extent scarcity, then I would most likely not be looking at retiring collections. With that said, I am kinda looking forward to ending the TF collecting tbh.

I agree with a lot of what you said and think I feel the same way about most of it. I'm planning a few Beast Wars figures this year (Tarantulas and Inferno to swap out old figures), but ultimately I think my TF collecting days are over. I may still buy the odd figure here and there, but that will be about it.
At one point I was buying pretty much everything TFs and now I've gone back to just characters I really like and generally not multiple incarnations. This has meant mostly G1 Decepticons and Beast Wars TV characters.
I look at what I have on display and I'm content with it and don't feel I need more. I've been selling for a while on and off, but need to speed up on that some. A part of me really likes the idea of this retiring/completing/coming to an end.
I was mainly a TF collector, but I have also got into Super7's Ultimates Thundercats. Super 7 Ultimates are overpriced for what they are, but I have enjoyed them and I think I'll keep going on that at least for now. One good thing is at least they don't continuously revamp the same character over and over (currently). Any time they do I will pass (like the red Mirror LionO they showed in an upcoming wave).
I also bought the Super 7 Ultimate TMNT turtles - just the 4 turtle characters. I really like them, but I think I will restrain myself from diving any farther into that line (unless they make Android Krang body).
BTW - nice PC. I'll need to get a new PC some day this year or next year too.
