::INSERT HARSH
GRIMACE AND AUDIBLE PAIN::
Moving…has
taken a part of me…again. I started this blog as a passion project years back
in 2012. I was living in the Netherlands and was just enjoying being a
collector in my spare time. It was quite the task to pack this stuff up to move
back to the US.
Now, I’ve
moved again. Still in the US, but across states. It took me over a week to pack
my collection…just the collection. The
task of putting them all back into their packaging, especially the Saint Seiya figures. This things…those damn things.
Much
has changed since I started in 2012. Mainly, I have a wife and child now(woot
woot). So, for the new place we moved to, I sacrificed the 2nd room
for the baby. That was not an easy decision to make, let that be known, but necessary
all the same.
So,
what does that mean? Did the Hobbyist get rid of the collection? Absolutely
not. The bulk of it is in storage, which leaves me with…::drum roll::…5
figures. Just. F*ckin’. 5. I know, first world problems, amirite? But as a
collector, it sort of hurts to be kept away from all that hard work(collecting,
building, posing, cleaning, etc.) be kept away from you.
So, without all the
lip service…my “collection,” if that is what you want to call it, now looks
like this:
The guy on the right was impulse. He just looked well done. |
When it used to look
like this:
Backlog... |
I guess
I’ll just wait until I buy something a
little more permanent. You guys know what I’m talking about. Starts with an “H”,
rhymes with “ouse”. Yeah, you know the deal.
Who
knows when I can do another review. I don’t have the setup like last time, nor
the abundance to choose from. We’ll see. There’s just so much to do, and such
little time to do it all. I’m a busier man than I thought, it seems. Until next
time…
Happy Hobbying,
everyone!
Just came across your blog looking for reviews of Legendary Armor Roto haha. Your collection was amazing and it was a little bittersweet reading this last post. Hope you're doing well with your family!
