00:53:50 THE MAIN DISCUSSION

When we start out collecting we often hunt for anything and everything Transformers related. But over time due to changes in disposable income, space, mid release design changes or falling out of love with a line the purge happens.

So thanks to Danny Quinlan over in Wa, have you ever done

“the Purge?”

-A couple of figures or a full line?

Reasons why?

-Out of space

-Change of collection focus

-Unhappy with designer build quality

-Moving locations

-Falling out of love with a line
