Does your wife/husband/girlfriend/boyfriend/whatever, support you as toy collector?

Mine don´t, she only have accepted that part of me because she loves me, but she is a real pain in the ass because of money issues, my kids, that yes, they are a real support, they love all my toys.

I haven't got a girlfriend right now, but I've been lucky enough to have a few relatiotionships with girls that did support me as a toy collector. It's not like I'm a BIG collector, but I like to buy myself toys every now and again, and I have hardly had a bad reaction from anyone, except for my parents when I still lived with them.

I'm single just now. But my last relationship, which lasted four years, was with a lass who didn't mind it at all. As long as it didn't interfere with the bills or our social life, she was fine. In fact she helped it in some ways - she was always getting me presents - be it the Usagi Yojimbo & Fugitoid figures she brought back for me from New York, or the time she called in sick to work so we could go see the original TMNT movie which was showing at local cinema, she was pretty awesome. Just a shame she chucked me! :ohwell::P

My girlfriend has hundreds more anime figures than I do, so I'd have to say yes. She doesn't like that I buy the exceptionally sexy ones, though. :)

[Cure]

For sho'. She finds it cute and endearing.

[Candy Kappa]

yes. she wish i had more, only downside is i sometimes find my figures in... sexual positions especially my marvel legends figures

[BoggleKng]

I think the kids like it more than the gf, although they know not to touch some stuff.. Cracks me up cause they are all girls.. and even more into it than I was, it seems.

Oh man, that's like the biggest prerequisite for me. My very first girlfriend made some comment about me being too old to have shelves full of toys (I was 16.) I didn't keep her long and I didn't stop collecting. :lol:

At least 2 of my family members do.

As for any new people that I may bring into my life in the future, if they choose not to accept it, that's their problem. If I had to choose between a girlfriend or action figures, I would go with the action figures.

[Master Splinter]

My wife is very supportive of my growing collection. I think if it was something other than TMNT she might have a problem with it... I joked about "what if i was into Star Trek like I am TMNT?" and she jokingly said I would be out on my a**... :D:D:D

She brings me home TMNT presents every so often.... So I think she is pretty cool with it and I love her even more because of that...

My GF doesnt mind it but says its a waste of money. But whatever. Its what I like.

[Sword Slicin' Leo]

It's strange for me... if we are somewhere and there happens to be some kind of TMNT, it's cool, but she seems to get pissed if it comes from eBay or craig's list... I always have to same defense though..... Better than me going to a strip club or a bar with the money right?!?!?! then she shut's up EVERY TIME LOL

My wife and I both have been collecting for a long time. As most of you know it can
help get you through some rough times. She understands the "thrill of the hunt" and
the satisfaction of finding that (really ugly) but rare piece for your collection. I believe
its helped our relationship stay strong over the years.

[Digital Ghost]

My fiancee is very supportive of my figuire collecting... mind you, it's not like I have that many either. I really only pick up figures that I consider must-haves and display them in a cabinet. I think if they were all over the place or in her way or something, then yeah... she'd have a BIG problem. :ohwell:
