I don't really throw away toys.I had a I rub my duckie that I threw away a few years ago and I didn't feel sad.The only reason I threw it away was because It didn't work and it wasn't insertable.I keep all of my toys even if they are broken.

Getting rid of ones that I just don't like but spent money on -- sad and wasteful.

Otherwise I don't really think twice.
That's how I am. :/

If it treated me well and wore out after a long time, I feel very sad. I am often attached to my toys.

However, if I have to throw it away after a very short time owning it, and I have to throw it away due to malfunctioning, I tend to be pissed about it.

I don't ever throw them out if they aren't broken, I'll try to sell, trade, or give them to friends.

Getting rid of stuff in general makes me feel pretty refreshed, no matter what exactly the thing is.

Sad! I only get rid of ones that are truly horrible, so they seem like a waste!

I don't have a big collection, so i really only throw them out if they don't work or if they really are just collecting dust. so i'm pretty indifferent.

Right now I'm in the process of upgrading all my cheap toys to high end stuff, so I'm happy to see those old friends go. I also have limited space to store my collection so I can only keep the best of the best and I'm fine with that!

Indifferent. If they don't work well for me I throw them out. What's the use of keeping them around?

I just did this a few days ago. I had some stuff "hidden" in the basement. Some were mostly ruined and some I still held onto, even though I haven't used them in ages. I was sad to let them go, but they were of no use anymore, due to age/abuse.

Indifferent. I actually just went through my toy box and got rid of a whole bunch of cheap ones that were broken or I never used.
