So, my question to you all. Is this an obsession taken to far? Is this just about right? Or do I need to increase my desktop army and take over my workplace? :tfevil (as it is I've filled up my shelf space, if I seperate all the combiners and Optimus, and I have to transform Unicron when I put them away under lock-up for the night, I've managed to reduce Uni's transform time to under 3 minutes, including dynamic pose clutching/crushing Flattop in one hand and Micro Hot Rod with one of the mega SCF matrix's in his other hand :tfgrin ) But I do have more deskspace I can use.... :tflaugh And this is hardly even a dent in what I have at home.... between all that, fixing up a '74 corvette, and having a fiancee, no wonder i'm always broke, lol :tftounge

buy them all, take the obsession beyond your financial means . i do :thumb

Well, I am planning on switching my original Rodimus Prime with the TRU reissue when it comes out in this area, and i'm considering bringing in my TRU reissue Jazz, as well as my rubber-wheel Kup, and I'm definitely gonna bring in Tracks when I gain a spare from my cousin's collection i'm getting :) I'm also toying (no pun intended) with the notion of getting an extra Skywarp & TC TRU reissues since the nearby TRU still has quite a few of 'em, but then I definitely wouldn't have room on one shelf to put 'em all in Vehicle mode when I feel like it. I work at a helpdesk so they keep my mind occupied when i'm talking to stupid people over the phone, lol.

Must be a fair-sized desk... :P

 

I wouldn't call that obsession, per se...if there was nothing BUT action figures on your desk, then YES, THAT would be obsession.

 

I wish I could relate to this story, though. Being a casual fan, I'm not that hardcore...yet. :D

just hope they don't have one of those bring your kids to work days or you could find yourself over-run with rug rats!!! and i can tell ya from experience...IT WON'T BE PRETTY!! :eek

Obsession, hah. I think of it as extreme dedication to a hobby

I can not imagine that many toys being on a desk. Do you actually have any space to work?

screw work. Transformers RULE!!

Well I wouldn't call it an obsession either; I'm more concerned with the fact that they're all at work.
