Panel Suggestions

I would offer the suggestion of a panel of a "hard core" collectors.

By this I mean bring a couple of the collectors out there, such as myself (Collecting Starscreams only)(and I would volunteer to do this - if there are more than two others) to discuss what drives us to collect the figures we do. I am sure we could twist the arm of the Fiend - since he has a huge collection.

its just a thought to toss out there.

Re: Panel Suggestion.

Wow. Haven't been on Cybertron.ca in a very long time, like almost 5 years! Amazing how much of one's time and energy dating takes up, huh?!
But ya, I'm always up for talking TFs with fellow hardcore collectors! Thanks for the mention and the suggestion, Sunstar.
Not sure, really, what drives me to collect the way I do, other than I loves me some TFs and have a compulsive need to get them ALL! I guess you could say I'm obsessive, having ~9000 pieces in my collection, and sacrificing so much in my life to get as many as I do, but I pay my bills, I sometimes eat, and I'm good with spending the rest on my addiction. S'just what I've always done. Some say I'm committed, most say I oughta be committed! LOL

I did panel awhile back about how to be a hardcore collector with limited funds (Based on my own tricks and experience growing my collection while working a minimum wage more then 10-15 years ago)

Mind you that panel was in 2013 so maybe something updated is worth putting together.

Re: Panel Suggestion.

I can see it being useful especially given the CAD has nosedived in the last few years. My own collecting habits have definitely shifted in part due to that.

I can see that. I know as a lower income collector I have to plan/save and ultimately kick things off my list.
