If we didn't buy them... imagine how full the shelves will be.
We are helping the economy when it needs our help the most! Repackers can go to hell.

Not even a little bit.
I figure I earn the money, I take care of my responsibilities first, my spare cash is mine, to spend on what I like. Anybody doesn't like it, FTA. |

Do what makes you happy. And yes, although I am in my happy place in the toy isle, people look at me like I am nuts!!!! I even bought a kids birthday card to use as a decoy when looking at joes. I hold a politacal position in town. So I am ALWAYS undercover.

I don't feel guilty one bit. I tend to hit my toy runs during the week when its slow and not too many kids asking "mommy, why is that man buying all those toys?". At this point I pretty much have everything currently released thanks to my runs last week to complete Wave 12. I've just been looking for figures that I can use to customize or trade if I see its one a lot of people are looking for on here. As of now I have no where near as many Joes as I did when I was a kid. Christmas morning was spent opening bags of figures and vehicles. One year I got all of the Battleforce 2000 line for Christmas. I had the TerrorDrome and Rolling Thunder. We would go to Mass Christmas Eve because Christmas morning was unwrapping gifts and the afternoon was spent putting together all of the vehicles I had gotten. It was usually that night or the next day when I could actually play with all of them.

Recently I have, I've had to stop collecting. I'll be getting married in a few months & the pending marriage has priority. Unfortunately, my greatest hobby has to take a backseat until further notice.

I'm almost 40 and i don't think there is anything wrong with it ,boys will be boys right and we like our toys ..
There is nothing wrong with collecting ,but if you are over 20 years old and still play with your Fisher price toys ,you've got some serious issues . |

People just think I'm buying them for my son.
Except. I don't have a son. Yes, it is a waste of money. But so are so many other things. Despite the fact that I'm a performer, I do own a cell phone or anything else. I play emulators and shop at thrift stores. Toy collecting/playing makes me feel like a kid again! |
