My mom doesn't mind my hobby (there are worse things) she has even done some hunting for me. My Dad really hated it until I sold off one of my toy collections on Ebay last year. After the amount I made off one collection his views have changed (he now believes the whole world is crazy and a bunch of suckers).

My mom still sends me toys for birthdays and Christmas. She also helps me hunt when I'm having trouble finding particular items (since she's often at stores earlier in the day than I'd be able to go due to work, and Wal-Marts in her area tend to be better about their exclusives).
She used to voice some concerns about how much money I spent on this kind of stuff, but I've never been living outside my means and I'm not spending it on drugs, booze (well, maybe a little on booze), or other vices, so she's come to accept it. |

i was born in 86 and started collecting in 89, she always supported my collection, she would help me get bigger items like bases and large vehicles, then i stopped collecting in around Extreme era, i got into xmen and videogames, but come xmas, id get a random joe here and there. i remember when they releases a 3 pack with destro in red/maroon, blue armored CC and a baroness, she got that and another set. dad detested it, he was a jock in school and thought i was an idiot for not playing sports year round.
i moved to FL from VA last year and mom still shops back home and mails me what i cant find down here. now, 23, i collect again, my girlfriend hates it with a passion, dad thinks im a failure, and mom thinks its cool because collecting makes me happy, gfs family thinks i have too much stuff in general. "Arent you too old to play with dolls", "OMG, youve got too many dvds... friends are more productive" me, i just shrug it off and wait for the holiday to pass to get them out of our house |

my mom is mad cool with it, she thinks its cool i collect joes and dont use drugs no more so she even will buy me figs here and there. but my ex girls parents were terrible about it, when my ex bought her house i had my own joe room and when ever her parents would stop by they would give me shit about it all the time, i just would tell them to mind their own business, buts its all good man some people will understand and some wont. do what you do.

Mom really never see her much except on Holidays and Sundays same with my Dad since they been seperated since 1992. But they never really go to my place except for last xmas when I had a GIJOE ubernativity scene which I will setup after thanksgiving. My dad saw it and said with a baffled look "son why does Mary and Joesph have guns near baby Jesus and whats with the white ninja on Manger roof?
