    Anyone else here still holding onto childhood?

    I have a few hundred Yu-Gi-Oh! cards consisting of a couple pretty aggressive / defensive decks. I never play them anymore, I was in my late 30s when I got into it for about 6-9 months. My card protectors are even My Little Pony, everyone thought I didn’t know how to play and people hated losing to me... like I wasn’t taking the game seriously. :D

    I’ve also amassed a collection of 27 LEGO sets. Consists of all the police sets from the first Lego movie with other larger sets from the movie as well. None of them are opened, I just own them. I have a couple from the Lego Batman movie, one is open / built, the rest still sealed. The only ones I would build out were the Star Wars sets, there’s 6 of those assembled or partially assembled.

    I have no idea why I own this stuff anymore. It just seems to take up space. Lately I’ve thought I should sell this dust collecting plastic to free up some closet space.

    Currently the pile of Lego sets is sitting obnoxiously in the corner of my living room taunting me to sell them.

    Prepare for a similar post in the Making Beats thread regarding my collection of controllers that also collect dust.
