Me and my wife were shopping at Walmart. I found Flash and grabbed him when my wife proceeded to tell me she wanted the black Storm Shadow. Before we met 3 years ago she knew nothing about G.I.Joe. Now she knows most of the characters by name and wants to collect the combat hero's.
Collecting can be contagious |

It is so very contagious.
My wife now runs around after work (she gets off earlier that I do) looking for G.I Joe or Transformer toys. I think she has found more of my 25th anni toys than I have. |

My wife will go with me most of the time. But sometimes while we are walking, she wanders off and i find myself alone in the toy isle...:(
She does help me pick up things for other members when i am at work...A +++

My Wife is super cool about my toy collecting but sometimes she gets jealous of the attention my Joes get. (It used to Marvel legends before)
She says “I’m Jealous of the Toys”

My girlfriend likes, what she calls, the "overtly gay GI Joes" - these include Gung-Ho, Roadblock, Shipwreck, Destro (despite his relationship with the Baroness) and the twins Tomax and Xamot are all homosexuals.
But she tends think nearly all men are gay, so there you go. |
