Not Star Wars, but I still collect toys from my favorite toy collections, and if any of them go missing or get damaged by some brat with butter-fingers, someone’s gonna die.
I actually had a use for Rose Tico. A Villain I created in 1973 had a Half Asian Daughter who was a bit on the plain side. Rose resembled what I kind of imaged that woman to look like. Only reason I bought her.

There was a place I used to go to all the time for transformers from almost every line, G1 to modern. Now, under new management, they like 2 whole walls of funkos and exactly 5 transformers, all of which are modern. How the mighty have fallen...
Those things really can't be that popular. I have no clue why stores get like 3 shelves of them, while leaving the rest of their toy department a desert.

“What’s that new girlfriend? I’m too old for star wars action figures? It’s either you or Boba Fett? Sure, I’ll just shove all this cr*p in a garbage bag and drop it off at a goodwill. I will definitely not regret this decision when we break up four months later!”
Pro Tip: tell your significant other, it’s an investment and can pay off debt when finances are tight Additional Pro Tip: Don’t buy cool action figures on a tight budget ; )
You forgot my personal favorite: I had this super rare figure but it was stolen by a friend, broken by a sibling or sold in a garage sale by my parents, but I'm fine with it and I don't hold grudges. 😭😭😭
*after dropping accessory in the carpet* "Well, I guess I don't REALLY need it to be complete, so there's no point in spending 45 minutes looking for that little piece."
God I love the new no plastic window packaging from Hasbro. I like my figures missing their heads and accessories. Bonus feature they come pre scuffed with extra dirt.
After 2 divorces, 4 kids, and a long Army career I am now a proud 40 year old virgin. Nothing better to me then collecting childhood memories and holding them in my hands again. Happy collecting everyone!!
Nah man because once my mom and I move into a bigger place, EVERYTHING is getting displayed. My second favorite part of collecting is organizing and setting them, the first is playing with them
What is it like for you to be married to a geek hobbyist? Just wondering because I'm a toy collector who lives alone but if I decide on having a girlfriend or wife somewhere down the line, I'm unsure how accepting they would be. My apartment pretty much looks like Steve Carrell's place in the 40 year old virgin.
@@scorpionwins6378 I think there needs to be a healthy balance. And obviously that’s for you to ultimately decide. But I think if you are open and honest about your collection with your potential significant other and see where they stand on it is a great start! The biggest aspect is being forthcoming about it.
@@scorpionwins6378 maybe its less percentage idk, but there are plenty of women who are also geek hobbyists. As long as you dont prioritize your collection over paying the bills and necessities, if a partner can't accept a harmless integral part of your life they ain't for you.

I have a friend who collect WW2 model kits. One day his visiting sister let her children into his man cave to play with the "toys". When he got home for work he finds his entire collection utterly destroyed. The sister said she will pay for everything. When she find out how much the "toys" worth she was shocked. The man is so broken he never wanted to have a children of his own.

i am a 30 plus year toy collector but i have no actual toy collector friends, so i am not the only person that HATES Pops? i genuinely did not know that. i will never not be glad that i am not a carded collector, i have bought carded figures before and they show up in a bubble mailer. luckily i was going to open them anyway. i am almost at the "i dont need more action figures" point, but thats mostly because no one is making the figures i want any more. i only collect 18th scale and i dont like retro style gimmick figures. uh, i actually do laugh when my non toy collector friends start telling me how much my collection must be worth and then lamenting on how rich they would be if they had just kept all those figures they use to have. people have a VERY incorrect perception of the value of the average toy collections, do not get into it if you are a greed motivated person.
LOL, I needed a good laugh. This reminds of the time I wanted to get a new PS4 white controller and the wife said “just remember that you are going to see Cheeto finger prints all over”. So got the black one instead. Thanks Tony, I love your dry sense of humor.
Collecting for me is always been about nostalgia about when I was a kid I really enjoyed playing with the GI joes back in the day and now I collect them because they just don't make him that good anymore ❤️
Hysterical! Totally on point!!! I love the “less articulated than the original” haha!!! My thoughts exactly - uhh…why exactly do those figures exist in the first place? Awful!
