The point when you have enough Lego?

[HawkLord]

I think my limit is space, but also innovation. I know I don't have every piece ever made and I honestly don't want to. The reason being is that I like having to strategize alternatives, so for me my collecting is slow based on MOCs and when the next time I'm stuck on something is. I never buy on bricklink or the like, I just use what I happen to get from sets and the occasional PaB wall.

You are building awesome MOCs with your stuff. Therefore, you don't have to stop acquiring unless it is causing problems in other areas of your personal life.

Doc ya old smoothie. No problems except feeling like a Lego junkie.

I could certainly say, that to many I have enough LEGO. I have a lot of LEGO but I will carry on buying sets to add parts to my collection. I have a shortage of baseplates and will be buying more. It is my favourite hobby next to reading/writing and now that I have sorted my collection the possibilities are endless and I am really looking forward to realising some childhood dreams of large layouts.

I just wish my photography could do my MOCs justice.

There was this one time, I think it was in 2005 or so, when I got a Lego catalog in the mail and was disappointed to find that I already owned every set in the catalog that I was even remotely interested in. I thought to myself then, "Is this it? Do I already had all the Lego I could ever need or want?"

I'm happy to report it was a very short-lived thought. I've come to realize since then that my collection will never grow fast enough to keep up with the ambitions of my imagination (either that, or I'll have the right part, but in the wrong color…)

^^ Without explaining why, a few years I was entitled to pretty decent discount at the local LEGO store, and I pretty much bought everything I wanted.

Skip ahead to now, and my wish list on LEGO.com is nearly $2000.

I have lots of Lego, but like others space is an issue. I had to wait about 10 months to build me Ewok Village because there simply wasn't enough space.

...I just bought another 3 small sets. One of which I already had...being more sensible with purchases is not working out very well

My solution is to take things apart and store them for a while (and occasionally sell sets that I've enjoyed but won't build again). Then I can just rotate what's on display. After a few months (years?) in storage I don't remember all the building techniques anyway and there's something satisfying and nostalgic about revisiting a favorite.

I think rotation is the way to go for display. Keeps things interesting and it contains the Lego madness from spreading if you don't have a dedicated room. Except for the ones I can't bring myself to break down like my ucs b-wing.

I've done a lot of set rotation, but I also have a lot that I don't want to rotate, like modular buildings, so as time goes on even my "rotate" shelf space gets less and less.

I probably have enough lego right now, but I am aiming for 1 million bricks.

Like most AFOL the real problem is storage and display space.

One day I might have enough of both of those limiting commodities.
