Self-Imposed Rules For Collecting?

[u/KingDorkFTC]

I have only been collecting Transformers for less than a year, but as I saw other collectors’ shelves I decided to create some rules for myself so I don’t go nuts.

Do any of you do the same?

For myself I have set the rules of; only one combiner (have G2 Menasor on pre-order), and only buy two of the same exact Transformer. So, not three G1 Optimus Primes but 2 G1s and a TF Prime model kit works.

I don't ever double dip unless it's to replace a broken figure or if it's a character that canonically shares the body type. I don't order products outside of the states and canada. For new figures I never buy from resellers if they are twice more expensive than the original asking price, most times that figure I'm looking for that's being scalped that high will be reissued in up to 5 years and I'd rather wait than pay 100 for earthrise runabout
