>>8351533The only way to free yourself from modern collector confines is to go back to the roots. Don't keep up to date on releases, don't order shit online, don't read these stupid online forums. Go to whatever stores you happen to frequent, browse the toys, grab what you like. Don't set up big shelves, just one big table and a couple boxes to toss stuff in. Favorites will shine through, the rest become fodder for different storylines or forgotten in the abyss of the box.
