Where do you draw the line and stop collecting/buying new stuff?

After buying a lot of crap, and later reselling it, I've settled on this goal:

I want to have one high end set of my favorite turtle incarnations and baddies:

Nick show turtles fighting Kraang and Triceraton,( Revoltech and mixed Playmates)

Mirage turtles fighting mousers, (NECA)

Fred Wolf cartoon turtles hangin in the lair, (Figuarts)

90's movie turtles fighting Shredder, (NECA)

and modern movie turtles fighting Bebop and Rocksteady. (Playmates)

If they ever make an IDW line, I'd probably buy every figure. (NECA hear my prayers)

In addition, I have room in the office at work for a small collection of vinyl figures. I decided to sell all my vinyls except The Loyal Subjects, which I'll be sticking with.

If an adult toy line isn't made in any of the above, then I'll customize stuff.

I also decided not to buy figures of concept art. If I see a cool artistic representation of the turtles, maybe I'll buy a print of it.

I'd like to think of my eventual display as a museum exhibit. When friends come over I can show them the turtles in their various incarnations. I don't have room or money for EVERY incarnation, but the ones that really stand out to me and from each other.
