This video is for the people who want to come at you negatively or keep hounding you about collecting.
Action figures and comic book collecting is much more sensible than being a criminal, con artist, or a drug addict.
Eaxaclty. It’s collecting art
Simple answer is, “Because I like it.” 👍
I'm a black nerd, I had PLENTY of conversations about this when I was single and dating.
Its simple. I earn the money, i buy whatever i like.
I knew right away to sub yesterday; you were in my recommendations. Thanks for the laughs this morning, brother. Made my morning. Her makeup costs was always my #1 “go to.”
I like the attitude of this. Because people should be able to express themselves in art and collections. I collect action figures from Japan- sofubi Godzilla s- vintage D&D- and more. Some of my collection increases in value and is considered contemporary art. If it gives a boost in happiness just do it. Live life and be happy. Sending blessings to all my collectors out there. Be who you are. Artistic with exquisite taste!!!
@ I agree with that 👍
My wife is 100% in support of my collection. She’s watched it evolve into an art form, I went from 3rd party Transformers to customizing my FlameToys TF models and Gundams. She’s even helped with dioramas, and displays. The only catch we agreed on was my hobby must support itself. Which it has accomplished easily. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Keep up on the content.
Winner!
🙌 blessed 🙌
Same here. The supportive wives are the best. Mine always tells me she knows I work really hard and deserve to be able to do this.
That is the coolest man cave I’ve ever seen, EVER! Ive got a problem too…. I keep trying to stop, but I can’t… but it’s hard where I’m at, nothing in the stores for 6 months… until currently… ordering is ok, but not as fun….
I think that your outlook on the situation was well thought out and well said. I am with you on the topic all the way.
PCA entered the Chat…
First. Congrats on the prequel to this vid (around 31k when I last checked). You deserve the views and I hope it catches fire more and YT don't trip - you da realest. Second, it's amazing and contradictory that men/women that cast judgment on our spending on something we love clearly have their own 'appearance' hobbies/fetishes (wigs, lashes, hair color, chest, tucks in all kinds of places, even working out or whatever, jerseys, shoes) that I really could care less about and am glad they're enjoying themselves ... hell they mine as well be a LIFE-SIZE 1/6 scale in my moducase lol
Lol right!
Hey, appreciate the support!
This was a great video as always and the open minded mentality on how you see this situation makes sense because I’ve dealt with this in some shape and form I will say that
Perfect , I couldn’t explain it no better 😊
Another great video! I was cracking up he whole time but you are 100% correct! People spend their money on whatever and have a complaint about somebody else hobby! smh
Your background looks so good it looks like AI. I had to check some of your other videos and nope it's REAL lol
I'm a big Batman + X-Men fan but I don't even collect this stuff but find it fascinating -- if that makes sense.
Subbed!
Appreciate ya & the sub!
Simple answer "cause I can."
I honestly think it's sad to see women and men who think it's better to have an alcohol or drug addiction. Same with gang banging and music that deteriorates the mind. Toy collections don't come anywhere near close to being bad unless it's draining your pockets but that's a different problem.
Appreciate this video my brother.
I collected Shoes since I was a kid My Lady is Kool wit it she know what she signed up for😂🤣… so do what makes you happy That’s what I always say 🫡🫡
Subscribed...end of story.
When I was a kid, my dad used to collect Star Wars fighters and action figures. Also had lots of model kits of things like battlestar galactica and aliens and stuff like that. Nobody would dare question him for that.
lol their purse collection be cost more than a collection of hot toys combined. These 200 to 300 dollar purses just sit in a closet after one or two use. Even worse if you combine it with their shoe collection that sits in a closet. Pull it out a year later and find a random dead crusty water bug in it. All, poorly taken care off and can't be resold. Unlike guys who collect Jordan's(for an example) take very good care of them and keep them in the box.
🫡💯🙏🏽💯Thanks fam for these fire 🔥 collection videos. Collectors hear and appreciate what you say and share 💯 Keep up the great work fam 💯 🫡💯
No doubt! Thanks for watching
Why so many toys, you only have two hands?
Yeah, I wish I have more. 😂
*@DSIKonz:* Correct on all points good brotha. I have a vast collection of extremely rare comics,action figures,video games,etc. All of it has made me ALOT of money just off showcasing alone,let alone selling certain items to serious collectors. Most chicks collect nothing of value.
I’m 47 i collect video games and consoles..Marvel figures and funko pops so I don’t care what people think..I do sometimes go over board on certain things my wife be on my ass😂..
You know how the wives are when they see that money flying off 💸💸💸 lol
50+ female and I collect Funko Pops - Going for the Guinness World Record for largest African American Funko Pop Collection - Nothing but respect on a serious collector!
@@faygoandfunko616 the record?! That's crazy 😯 GOOD LUCK! Hope you reach that goal.
how many do you have
I lost the homie for collecting figures because he didn't like it. I don't give two 💩💩 about him! Guess he wasn't a real homie. The important thing is that my wife supports my plastic crack addiction🙌😄 I tell people the same thing you do when they questioned me.
Damn a homeboy mad over figures? That's crazy work. He wasn't a real friend.
Nawww b, you ain't being an a$$hole at all. You're keeping it real & calling it like you see it. How anyone going to tell you how to spend YOUR money? They can keep it moving/GTFOH!!!!! Great video & I'm still collecting TF'S or anything that makes ME happy
Lmao, I've never had an issue with people disrespecting my stuff in person. It's all the keyboard warriors that have a sudden burtst of courage
They always get courage behind that keyboard
Great points, sometimes unfortunately it comes down to what's an acceptable hobby and what's considered a unacceptable one I don't get judgy about people who wear large cheese props on their heads I just see it as their passionate about their team......
I’m the same buddy. Got figures to unbox. Probably do it soon 😊. Waiting on a few more orders. Anyway have a good day.
You as well!
It hasn't happened yet but if any broad were to ask this question, my reply would be; because it keeps me happy.
It is what it is you like what you like but some of these collectors do go overboard and then got a nerve to try to internet fight you but don't realize some people really stand by their name
I dont bring randoms to my house so they will never know what i do . Thats what the motel for .
Nice fireplace. My fireplace is so fake that it causes fireworks, lol!
@@J0r-El it's a TV playing the role of a fireplace lol
@dsikonz Oh, lol! Well, the TV does it justice.
I've had women question me about action figures, Js and firearms. I think women want men to be miserable and focus all your attention on them. Well some women. The miserable single or judgemental women. I have a 75 year old aunt who still reads comics and another aunt who loves Betty Boop. I'm 48 will collect until I die. Appreciate the videos mane. This is my second video of your watching. Keep pushing out content bro
Me and wifey about to start collecting firearms together soooo....so I got some ammo (pun intended) lol
@dsikonz that's an addictive lifestyle.. I thought I'd be good with one but I'm probably on 25. Happy collecting to you and yours
Just say: "you're the crown jewel of my collection, babe.". "You're a 1 of 1. They didn't make any like you anymore... You're the real masterpiece.". "All this over here... these reviews, they were just practice, for the one review that really matters: you and me. Where we're going... (Where's that, she says, hands on hips). Down the aisle, honey, up on a pedestal. Now if you'll excuse me, I've got a review to record."
That only applies to wifey. Randos & potential girlfriends get my method lol
Honestly the best policy....sometimes.
My collecting went from just catching that nostalgia high to being an output for my creativity customizing painting. Fuck em if they can't get over it
Man my gf bought me two dragon ball toys for Christmas and her family laughed when I was showing my gifts off. I truly didn't care though cause I always been critiqued my whole life
Hold ya ground bro! 💪🏾
When she ask why do you collect toys.. I respond back why are you here still ?
Lol good one
Excellent response
Find out what she liked/played with as a child and purchase just one,then give it to her...watch what will happen.
Ok I'm going to try this again. YT keeps deleting my comment. For women you're with, yeah. I did a video about women you're with. For women that are randos and hostile, nah my method is better. Weeds out the bad bunch.
They don't respect you show them the door. That stupid stuff they collect is materialistic and a waste. If you were to put them down after they put you down they would be the first one to try and fight. Like you embarrassed or belittled them. People collect all type of stuff and the last time I looked it costs money. So if your collecting, paying your bills and have money to spend on them...where's the problem. Women and other people need to understand everyone has their own interests and things they like...respect them or get lost.
💯
My friend once told me he went to bed with bey and woke up with grace Jones!!!🤣
🤣
I think you drop a video on you talking about quality between different figure lines like marvel legends dc multiverse Mezco Sh figure arts and all the rest because uncle Tim got me hot claiming Mezco hot toys Mafex Sh figure arts and other brands ain’t quality nothing but paying for a name 😂😂😂😂lol makes no sense man
I got something in the works
I think one unspoken issue is how the rise of the "adult toy collector" has coincided with the death of toys for actual children. As adults, we have let video games become the default "toy" for kids while actual toy companies now market to adults. So each "toy" made for an adult represents one that isn't made for a kid and that just seems like a capitalist dystopia that we unquestioningly accept. Its sobering to acknowledge, but "toys" are something adults have taken from children, which is the sense in which nostalgia isn't the attempt to recapture one's own youth, but rather the act of stealing someone else's.
@ericb9804 Adults that collect are not a new thing. I somewhat agree you depending on what we are talking about. If we are talking actual toys made for kids I can see that somewhat. But ultimately I disagree with you. I somewhat already covered this topic on my channel in a couple other videos but I actually got another video on the top is coming.
@@dsikonz Cool. I'll look out for it. I certainly don't want to come off as blaming or shaming, but I also think we should be honest with ourselves about the extent to which our own behavior contributes to the very things we complain about. There is clearly a sense in which market forces manipulate our sense of pleasure to paradoxically create a social situation we don't particularly enjoy - and yet we keep doing it. For example, its important that we acknowledge that "toy" companies chase adult dollars by sacrificing toys for children. We tell ourselves that kids want video games more than toys, which is true to an extent, but only in the sense that children are even more easily manipulated than adults.
Kids have video games while adults have toys because that is world we have created for ourselves by an unquestioning acceptance of market forces that are not necessarily in our best interests. Its Ok to acknowledge that, for all the joy it may bring, buying "toys" as an adult is both a social and personal pathology.
You know what, you don't owe nobody an explanation of a completely legal hobby!
True but sometimes you gotta pop out and show ninjas
Mmmm dude your channel has declined sooo much... it used to be fun. Sorry had to unsubscribe
Not a problem. Thanks for rocking with the channel while you did.
