Tell me about it. And, if you're like me it is always harder, everytime you do the buy back. Yeah, it's costly and difficult to locate, but for me its the arguement I have with my wife over what is "needed" or "affordable" or "extreneous". Then there's the comment "Where would you put it if you got it?" Thing is, I could easily store all of this stuff if she'd just let me move the kids into the basement and use their room. But, NOOOO, how could I think of such a thing? Man, this growing up stuff SUCKS!!!

Hrm... if it makes sense, I feel I never did outgrow GI Joe. Instead I feel I matured with it. I mean, the style of play has changed. Now it's more like a hobby.. like as if model building. I'm buying figures to kit bash them.. now called doing customs. Doing diorama's I'm finding myself researching the techniques in the model magazines for 1/32 and 1/48 scale WWII tanks. Doing lots of research for accuracy. Gosh, it's a lot of work!

And it's expensive.

So, GI Joe 1/18 scale has replaced the 1/32 scale Tamiya model kits I used to be into. Hobby stores are getting harder to find, but Star Wars and GI Joe are easily found. Dios for either is now my new hobby. The style of play has changed.
