THE TOP 5 MOST ANTICIPATED FIGURES OF 2015

Figure Collecting - A Breath of Fresh Air

In the next few weeks, there'll be more announcements to come! *hint

You ever get stuck in a rut? Doing the same thing repeatedly get stale? That's what collecting retro video games had done for me. Seeing the same games over and over, with only the prices changing (going up usually). Don't get me wrong, my friendships have really strengthened with Lester and Ian (my partners from my Thriftdweller channel) simply because retro game collecting gave us something to do. However, the time has come to do something different. Action figures and statues have opened a whole new world for me. There is a large community of figure collectors on YouTube with vast amounts of resources. I feel reinvigorated, like a breath of fresh air.


I have taken to this figure collecting with vigor and motivation. There'll be more announcements in the days and weeks to come. For now, here's a list of channels I've taken a shine to recently and recommend to anyone interested in the action figure community.

Retro Canada X dream lives on...

As many people may have seen, I began a website called "RetroCanadaX". I was a test and was suppose to be a group of online retro game collectors coming together in one place and we would see where it could have gone. It was a lot of work to upkeep and I had trouble getting the resources I needed. For the time being, I've put that project on the back burner as I continue w/ my other pursuits. The dream will live on, it's just simmering at the moment!

Collecting 2015 - I'm "DONE" with retro game collecting!

There's a few reasons I've moved on from Retro Game Collecting! But what ever could I move on to?
(Not my game room in the picture! But click here to check out this awesome room!)

"A hobby is suppose to help you pass the time... not fill it!" Funny me, using that quote that came from a Psycho named Normal Bates. I'm beginning to come to grips with this "collecting" of mine, the hundreds of video games, it must seem crazy to the "normal" people. I guess it's a good thing there's so many like myself out there. However, as I continue to age like a fine wine, my collecting is going to have to evolve as well. Here's why I'm "done" with retro collecting, it's the theme I've come up with for 2015...

"I've got all the games I've ever wanted!"
