feel anything yet?
Look at the kits you have, and think about presenting them in a way that you wouldn't normaly. Diorama? Fantasy paint job (i.e. paint a tank to look like a Nascar), super detail, etcc. Or lay them out and see if you can tie one in with a movie and go rent that movie. It could jog you into something and get the mojo going again.
You could box them up and put everything away for a bit and not even think about it. You'll go back if you want to build something, or not, then nothing lost.
Remember why you bought them in the first place. I'm sure you had an idea when you laid your money down.
Give yourself a deadline. Pick one and decide to build it in a period of time. Stick to it like it was a contract build or as a gift. Pick a local contest and build to make it into that contest. You don't have to go, but if you carry through you'll have something to enter.
I promised myself, that I would not buy anything new till I finished at least 3 of my backlog kits. Amazing what you can accomplish if you remain honest with yourself and keep a personal promise, especially if there is a kit you want really bad.
Start up a GB with one of your kits as a subject. There's always one going on and I know I used the Sherman build to keep me focused and going in a direction that I accomplished something. Especially if there are others "virtualy" working along side you.
Good luck.
