Love my mom haha.
Action figures are considered to be "childish items" mainly because they have an 8+ age. A lot of people don't know about customizing, displays, photo shots, reviews, variants, and resale value. I may have a lot of toys, but if I had the time and effort I could make 3-4000 on ebay easily. Guys and girls our age should be buying video games, movies, cd's, etc. I just see it as like a poster, no real purpose other then to say you have it, and star at it. Well an action figure is like that, but better because you can change the pose and form of the figure where as a poster stays the same. Yet a poster is more socially acceptable. I have a few friends that "don't get it", but honestly they're guilty of collecting other things themselves. Be it dvd's, video games, cd's, cards, coins, etc.
