[QUOTE="olisuds, post: 398213, member: 2119"] I've heard a few people criticise focus collecting as a bit obsessive but lets face it, collecting anything (particularly toys) is a bit OCD and having a focus is a method to the madness. Unless you have unlimited money, space, time i think it's good to set some collecting constraints. A focus, particularly a character focus does just that. In addition to this it's fun, it can be a helpful way to avoid competition with other collectors and it's probably helpful to develop a name for yourself associated with a particular character so when interesting things come up for sale other collectors bring them to your attention. Despite my interest in R5-D4 I've never really considered my self as having an R5-D4 character focus. I admit it would be a lot of fun. But my real interest lies with pre production and despite the urge to spread my collecting interests i don't really have the space or money to do so. Everytime I expanded my focus I ended up selling the extra bits off as soon as an expensive pre production item came up. [/QUOTE]
