Default Cutting back on collecting?

I've spoken to a few people lately (other collectors I mean), and I get the impression that I'm not the only one that is struggling with the speed in which companies are releasing things at, these days. (Zavvi - I'm looking at you with your bloody steelbooks!)

I mean, we've got 8 weeks left until Christmas, and whilst I've heavily cut back on the number of preorders I have, things are still pretty tight.

So, has anyone else had a preorder cull lately? Or made the decision to cut back on their collecting habits?

For us, we have decided to now focus just on games, movies and TV shows that we actually love and are excited about. I know obviously a lot of people do this already (since it's the smart option!) but for us, it seemed a bit alien at first as we're so used to just trying to get anything and everything.

So with that in mind, all we have left this year are:

- Lego Marvel Superheroes.
- Xbox One Day One Edition.
- Dead Rising 3.
- The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds CE.
- The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds 3DSXL.
- The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds CE Guide.
- Breaking Bad: The Complete Series CE.

And then the rest of our spending money will be going to our son's birthday, Christmas for each other - we're getting each other the Zelda CE Guide Boxset (one for him, and one for me), Allan is getting me ACIV Black Chest CE and I'm getting him Ryo Hazuki Exclusive statue - and Christmas for our son and our families and friends

So have you found yourself cutting back on things lately? What preorders have you got left this year? xx
