I've been thinking about this a lot though, especially as my collection matures...so, when is it that you've had enough of a figure or character? When are they done?
I ask this in light of MP Optimus V3, but I was caught thinking about it as I ordered that PotP Nemesis Prime off Amazon and briefly considered how I had only handled my LG EX Black Convoy for all of the time it took to check his three modes.

I don't think I'm ever 'done', it's more a matter of becoming increasingly selective, i.e. Movie Bumblebee.
Outside of Bumblebee and Prime, it's hard to think of other character that have been so overplayed. Prime fatigue is real, but Prime IS Transformers to many people; I find it hard to balance Prime fatigue with the appeal of a Prime display.
That said, I try to avoid tiring of the LGEX style redecos by collecting exclusively Nemesis-colored black Primes.

Take for example the Titan Returns Tidal/shockwave above.
I have the Armada and Micron Legends versions, both superior in almost all regards to the boxset version from Titans Return. Why keep it other than the fear of not having it? It's a question of maintaining a large, perpetually changing collection.

Ever since MP-8 Grimlock came out, I've bought a lot of Grimlock toys. This is because I love him. That said, MP-8 is pretty much perfect, so why would I do this? If no more Grimlock toys were ever released, I'm satisfied. MP-8 made him "done".Counterpunch wrote:I know we all love to get new stuff. I'm as guilty of it as anyone if not moreso.

The rest is honestly just me greedily embellishing transitory desires to have new things. New takes on an old idea can be fascinating though fleeting. Sometimes it's like comfort food. I'm not sure this answers your question fully, but it's something.
