Re: A pause?
I quit during the Prime Wars trilogy. Bought a couple of Legends and Leaders from Combiner Wars (in other words, I bought some of the CW figures that ignored the CW gimmick) but skipped Titans Return and Power of the Primes completely. Siege and Earthrise got me to at least look at Transformers again, but I still barely touched those lines (in Siege's case it was because of the battle damage and the desire to mimmic the MTMTE-style half-Cybertronian designs, and in Earthrise's case it was because I already had better versions of most of its characters.) I bought more of Kingdom since a lot of those characters had never had decent representations before, but I'm still skipping more figures than I'm buying.
I suspect I'll continue taking a pick-and-choose approach to Legacy and beyond (I was never a completionist, but I used to impulse-buy Deluxes sometimes even if I wasn't interested in the character or design, but current prices have put a stop to that.) I'm going to be skipping all of the figures they've shown so far, but I might buy repaints of some of them if they're ever made (Scourge for Laser Prime, Fracture for Drag Strip, Elita-1 or another fembot for Arcee.)
