I get super interested for a couple of years, learn a lot about the topic, build a collection and then the interest dies and I purge the collection, usually with nothing remaining. I've even done this with guitars. So right now I'm down to guitars and related equipment and a small amount of movie memorabilia. I actually just sold off 85% of my movie memorabilia but I'm going to keep the last bit because it still has meaning to me.
Do you guys ever do the same? It's a costly habit but it keeps me out of trouble.

Lots of positive reasons why being interested in the items you mentioned are healthy if it keeps you out of trouble.
I started collecting sports cards in the late 70's and continued into the early 90's. I still have them all, about 35,000. Included are also lots of 70s tv/movie cards like Star Wars (those are cool), Charlie's Angels, Mork & Mindy, etc. Don't know if I'll ever get rid of them though.
