    I only had painted toys for a while, and having just one or two unpainted DID drive me nuts...so I just collected more! Now there's a whole shelf. For me, one shelf is a good amount. The rest can be painted.

    Blanks, to me, are like an unfinished painting. The only ones I end up displaying are clear with paper guts.

    I always liken blanks to cookie dough - delicious, in their own way, but totally unfinished!

    Blanks need protecting from vandalism. Ornament is crime!

    I personally only collect painted... because if I collected both, I’d be broke!

    I love unpainted toys, collect a ton of it...but think too many unpainted toys are being released in general.If almost half of a toymakers releases are unpainted, that is way too many. Keep blanks to a few incredible unpainted or marbled colors, but paint the majority of the rest.

    In a collection, I love seeing shelves of unpainted toys together. Especially in all of a single color, or really good color mixes.
