Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

3 statues equal a purse 6 equals purse plus shoes 10 equals jewelry. at least in there minds it does.

I'm lucky in that my wife embraces the big nerd I am and supports my collecting habbits. She even goes as far as telling others about how cool my statues are and has picked her favorite. On that note, if she realized just how much money goes into the hobby I'm sure she wouldn't be AS supportive.

my wife is supportive as well and critiques my statues. She post pics of my statues on facebook cuz i'm too lazy! She got me some great statues like the xmen vs sentinel #1 diorama when we were dating. right then i knew she was marriage material. LOL.

She sees me acting like a little kid in a candy store when i get my stuff so she is cool with it. i do see her eyes roll when she sees all the empty boxes though lying around and the vampirella comiquette. LOL.

My girl left me because I only collected Bowen and she started seeing a guy that collects Sideshow.
She left him for a guy that collects Hot Toys.
