@TicciDaToby: A thing last week said that 25% of retail toy sales are for adults. And that doesn't count ebay, flea markets, those $$$ hyperrealistic 12" Asian figures, comic shops, etc. The first time I came back from WDW, the airport security lady found my carry-on full of plush and said, "oh, are these for your kids?" "My what?"

Like everyone else is saying, go for it! Im really into kids cartoons right now and nobody makes fun of me! And if they do, I will make them miserable for it.happy

Go for it! I guarantee you have classmates who collect toys, though they may do it on the DL. It's sure as heck not little kids buying $30 figures of super obscure Marvel characters and Hello Kitty waffle irons.

If you want to collect them, go for it!! You don’t have to be a specific age to collect toys, & if anything I’d say that most lps collectors nowadays are teenagers or adults. If you’re worried that people will bully you for it, you don’t have to tell them.

Also if you want some general tips for getting back into collecting (such as buying pets for cheap, identifying authentic vs fake pets, cleaning/restoring, etc) let me know & I’ll gladly share what I know!!
