I actually went through that as well. Ended up selling my Hulk Pf, Cap, Thor, Doom etc... I gutted my whole house myself and used the $ for supplies and some finishes. In a weird twist, i ended up getting a great job right about the midway point and now i regret selling off my statues. I will never pay aftermarket prices for those early Marvel Pf's. The good thing was that my wife has very simple country type tastes so i was able to save on furniture and all that by refinishing pieces i bought on antique hunts and dumpster diving. The house came out great so it wasnt so bad but deep down it still is a kick in the junk.
