Why would you?

You have a great collection of 25/28mm figures that you have spent years accruing.

You would have to be mad to get rid of it all now.

Space and money... plus my ow is foundry 25mm so none of the new stuff matches!

I'd hold on to the Cthulhu stuff though!

If you have for instance Napoleonics or other historical armies this is a valid question as they can be swapped like for like but anything else, even in this magical age where you can get literally anything, is folly.

I will join the chorus of no's.

I wasn't talking magical age Svenn, you'd have first dibs on killing me and taking the lot if I ever do that...

Really I suppose it's OW that bugs me..

Absolutely not, unless you're willing to give them all away (to me ;-) ).

Honestly I love 15mm for anything above skirmish level. But that's the thing, everything your listing is in fact skirmish level gaming which IMHO is much better in 25mm+ sizes then in 15mm as you just don't get the detail you want for skirmish gaming at that size.
