Thanos is set to ship Jan - March. Then I'm done with statues. They are now a rich man's game and I am now. I may just stick to omnibuses to collect. I am looking forward to him so badly though, cannot wait to take some pics!
I'm in the same boat Jonesie, I've spent so much money on comics/statues this year, it's crazy. After Thanos, and IF XM makes Angelus, I'm done. Omni and a few comics here and there will what I will collect. Running out of room in my storage for this stuff and life has other priorities, I need to be happy with what I have.

It's kind of comforting knowing I'm not the only one! Next year is the year of smart choices

I am actually done as well. And not just for the year. I'm out of the statue game for good. Not only has finances and space been an issue but it's begun to just feel like clutter. Selling the majority of my collection and keeping the few pieces I feel are truly special to me. Books are potentially next on the chopping block but they're a little more difficult to unload without flat out giving away.

Tomb of Dracula Omnibus vol. 1 and 2. I wish Marvel do a reprint. Love John Buscema's art work.

A buddy of mine and me were joking about starting a fb page like LAS - Life After Statues or something. A support group for those of us in recovery LOL

Yeah I figured omnis would unload easily. Still hoping to keep most of mine though. The books I'd like to get rid are mostly paperback and random hardcovers.

Seems like you're purging from all hobbies. You done collecting period?

Pretty much have stopped buying statues. Bowen's Frankenstein was the last one I got. If he ever decides to come back, I may fill in a few holes but everyone else just got too damn expensive for me to ever justify. I do pull my Omni a lot & find their completeness a great resource. What I'd really like to do is unload my comics. But I have 40+ long boxes & the task is just too damn daunting for me. I love my omnibus though & doubt I'd ever part with them along with a few other fab. hdbk collections & my Essentials & Showcases. But, like a few have said here. "enough already" w/ a lot of stuff.
