You only have the "start of a problem".
I have about 50 unbuilt rocket kits, 20 - 25 FF airplane kits, 5 or 6 R/C airplane kits, 70-80 plastic model kits, 3 wooden ship models, and about a dozen or so 54mm figure models.
I have accumulated these over the last 35 years so it's not as bad as it seems (except the rocket kits which were all bought within the last 2 years).
I don't have nearly the "problem" that my brother in law has.
His basement wall looks like a hobby shop and the last time he counted, he had well over 600 unbuilt plastic model kits. That was about 6 months ago and I bet he has added another 100 or so since then. He builds maybe 1 a month and only builds models that he has more than one of.
