In 2015, I bought the original core for my nephews. Also picked them up a few y-wings, picked them up Rebel Aces. It was a good start, I thought. We sat down and played the game. It was really fun. They enjoyed it. I bought them a few more expansions. Then I bought myself a core. That was a mistake.

I adopted the letterbox/shoe box method of storage. I put together fun lists (Tie Swarms/Dash & Poe/brobots etc.) and placed everything you needed in its own box. But I also bought extra copies of expansions, stored them away. Just in case. Then more expansions came out. Then all I needed was one more expansion to make it to free shipping. I'll just get an A-wing.

After organizing most of my collection yesterday, I found a box with six unopened A-wings.

2.0 makes it very easy for me to stop. And that's good. With my collection as is, my nephews' grandkids will be getting expansions for Christmas.

I never fly Imperial, but on Black Friday when everything X-wing was 60% off for the first hour, I grabbed 1 of every Imperial expansion I didn’t have. More than half of them sit unopened in the closet...

Unfortunately your words of wisdom come five years too late.

A mere pup! I must have missed that stone tablet.

Embrace the dark side. Channel your obsession! And come to version two when the lack of new first edition content no longer satisfies that urge.

I imagine you could sell off or trade a fair amount of your redundant collection.

I literaly haven't done anything to my G4H than remove the Harpoons and Viper title. Haven't used the models, any other cards, and the cardboard is still not punched and with 2.0 on the horizon probably won't ever be.

But can still be corrected: open the boxes!

Wait... was that the mistake that everyone else thought it was?

Where was everything 60% off?

Local store. Everything was 60% off the first hour, 20% the rest of the day. All except the Spiderman #1 signed by Stan Lee.
