Easier said then done. Once it's time to move that will be a different story. No one knows how to pack or even begin to sell these with so many fragile parts but they collector himself/ herself. These things takes up massive space and the boxes as well. If your kids gets married they probably will not want the statues hogging up a couple of rooms that can be used for family. Or if they move out of state. Chances are they will not try to pack and load these up in a truck and then unpack them all later to display. Very unlikely. When I go I will just sell them all at 50% off which is the only way to move most of them these days after high fees, and breakage refunds. and give them the money. It's much easier that way imo.

If she wants a free statue collection she can figure out how to move them herself

A conclusion is simply the place where you got tired of thinking.

I’ve been out of statue collecting for a few years now. This was the one character that could get me back in.

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

Well I definitely have people in my family who think it's an incredible waste of money, but me and my cousin who is one of my best friends have bought statues and figures since we were kids buying heman, g.i. joe and transformers, so nothing they say matters because you either love collecting or you dont and I love this stuff, my daughter likes my statues, but would probably rather have the money from them, but shes gotta wait a few years I hope

Sonja has some requirement that you need to beat her in battle before bedding? I know some folks are just being PC but most guys that aren't keyboard warriors aint got any problems with this option. Seriously. Maybe the hordes of white knights army roadblocking? Yeah.

Dejah is like an Aphrodite that would just spin you around in a lust web where you would probably starve from just over-mating and forget food altogether.

I choose the over-mating as I aint about wasting time and energy on sword play. Plus that toxic masculinity typically calls out us guys to do no harm to the ladies even as we chase humping all in sight.
Lol, you make a convincing case, can't argue with you there.
