I was re-arranging my display cases this week to fit in all the new figures hitting/shipping lately (4, 5, 6, Legends, etc.).  Anyways, as I had things pulled out and looking at them closely again, it really hit me how much of this stuff there has been.  Like I've said before, I don't have near the collection of many (or most) of the people here, but it really is accumulating at this point.  When I was a kid, I wasn't fortunate enough to have anywhere near a complete collection, usually relying on what I could pick up with my "allowance", and a couple of hand me down ships.  Anyways, I was looking through my modern figures, and I think I honestly have more Darth Vader figures (modern) than I had vintage figures total when I was a kid.  Yikes.  I'm still really enjoying collecting these days those, this year has been a great year.  It just made me realize how far things have gone.  I couldn't imagine having all of this if I was a kid, that would have been pretty fun.
