I used to be huge into collecting. Limited editions and special versions, I loved them all. I spent hundreds of dollars on things that I didn't need or never even opened. Most of them are still lying around in my room or closet, in excellent condition. Mostly, I've beaten the urge. I realize some of these things are not necessary for happiness and that others aren't necessarily that rare. But then when I think of all the things I didn't buy because either I couldn't find them or couldn't afford them, my mouth begins to water. We will see one day what happens if and when I am able to return to that life. But until then, here is my wishlist....

Back when Final Fantasy X-2 came out, there were a set of these gun controllers modeled after Yuna's Pistols. I always wanted a pair and they were readily available at the time. They would have run me 250 dollars and at the time I had the credit but for some reason didn't charge them. Do I regret it? Yeah, maybe a little. But I think one of the reasons I talked myself out of it was because it was an online transaction. I had never seen them up close and was worried about the quality. Had I been able to verify them in person like say in a retail store, I probably would have bought them and this would be a completely different story.

More Wishful Thinking To Come,
