Hot Toys The Dark Knight Joker DX/Artisan 1/6 Scale Figure

Custom bros watching people argue which subpar (Hot Toys / Inart) figure looks better

That’s fair. We all have different reasons for collecting and all are valid.

Yep. Have to suffer the hard choices, can only have one vice in life. Bolivian marching powder or dolls, the dolls won.

I like the conversation, but collecting in and of itself isn’t fun to me. I don’t like storage,
I don’t like seeing how much product I’ve acquired. Don’t like the feeling of being overwhelmed of what’s in my possession without a way to navigate any kind of future life. I suppose I just don’t like clutter (I threw out new nightstands and a headboard because they felt like too much, same thing happened when I received my Moducases, I disassembled the smaller cases and will use them for parts) no matter how good the figures are, custom or officially licensed, they all amount to clutter to me at a certain point. Though I like the process of building figures up, it’s such an exhausting task that I couldn’t be bothered trying to do that with 20+ figures.

The passion has dimmed I suppose. Bit of a love-hate relationship, on one hand I want to get something as accurate as possible, on the other - I feel like why bother, which makes me really hone in on the characters that matter that can actually push me to improve their accuracy.
