I can understand where you are coming from, but one of my friends has the largest collection of Doctor Who stuff you could imagine and we don't think anything of it. It's a little odd, but it just shows he loves the series.
You don't have to have them on open display if you have new visitors but there is no need to get rid of stuff you love collecting for the sake of social appearances.
Unless it's MLP dolls... then you should hide/burn them immediately.

I have some old shoe boxes I could put the anime and games I still don't want to get rid of in. That's what I did with all my old Bionicles because I couldn't bring myself to throw those out.

Yeah that could work. I've still got all of my bionicles and I've even bought a few off my friend who was getting rid of them. I'll just box them up and keep them for the future, I have too many fond memories to just get rid of them.
