Middle School: Toys are cool.
High School: Throws away all toys.
College: Toys are cool.

Since I was 15, people told me I was too old to buy toys. 30yrs later, I'm still happily hunting the toy aisles.

[ginashaw]

I totally agree but also, I think for me it's deeper than that. For me, being a kid was the happiest time of my life. My memories of growing up are amazing. I'd go back in a heartbeat. It's when you get to a certain age and 'grow up' that lifes not quite as fun.
To still be able to have the things that made peoples childhoods so amazing and hold fond memories must be what it's all about. We all love a bit of nostalgia whether it's an old track from back in the day or a TV show we all loved or a favourite holiday destination, we hold onto those things because they brought us joy. Growing up doesn't mean we have to let go of that, it just means we can appreciate it more and hell, right now we all need more joy in our lives!

I'm still pretending to be an adult 30 years later...

[saintjamesmodernart]

LOL! I am almost 70 and still collect. Black Series, Neca, etc., etc.
When people criticize and say I should grow up. I say why?
I am not finished with adolescence yet. LOL!

Once a toy collector, always a toy collector, now that I'm in my early 20s

[drwhooo]

I'm 60 next month and have only been collecting toys for about 15 years . Looking forward to the action man documentaries, the toy i grew up with

[johnlumbano]

I’m 48 I’ve been collecting for as long as I could remember. I have 4 daughters married for 23 years and I will die collecting. Figures, retro consoles, and thing that reminds me of my youth. It’s great my kids love it.

[InsmniaUWE]

45 and still proudly collecting toys!

Last time someone challenged that I was too old to collect toys was a TRU cashier of all people. I kindly pointed out if thier opinion was that important I could take my money elsewhere :)

Another great TTT episode for the books.

[Narboo]

Love this so much! I’m 45 and toys keep me sane in this crazy ass world. 🙌

Simply collect what you love and enjoy. If you can’t add anything useful or be supportive, keep it to yourself.

[jesusreuterventura]

First time catching your channel and I am now a subscriber. I'm 47 and I have no shame in collecting toys at my age. I stopped collecting toys for awhile because I was caught up in reading and collecting comic books, but now toys and toy hunting are my thing again. I've collected toys throughout my life and now It's a hobby that I truly enjoy doing more than ever before. There's just something about that thrill of the hunt. I'm big into MOTU, TMNT and Macfarlane Toys among other things. And lots of vintage stuff.

[eltenda]

I'm 50 and I collect, my room it's my relax room as far what people think I couldn't care less ! Great video bro

[thunderkid]

Great video, man. You're right on, the people who rip on others for a hobby or interest like toy collecting are the immature ones. They are indeed stuck in a very basic, adolescent mindset. They are likely very boring people. I've struggled with the issue of having confidence in my collecting. It is certainly not the norm among my friends/family/peer group. I'm learning that self-confidence and being comfortable in one's own skin is a real mark of being an "adult". If you're a collector and it inspires you, brings you joy, brings good relationships into your life etc., etc., embrace it fully and proudly. I'll work on taking my own advice haha.

[SecretOfMonkeyIsland]

I once got someone on eBay pull out the "You must be a virgin with no job who lives in your parents basement" card when i was making a offer on the price of a vintage toy he had listed. A lot of people do like to resort to popular stereotypes when they hear about adults collecting toys.

[timothyfletcher]

I’m 56 and still hunting shit down….recently been going around B&M stores trying to buy the latest Character Options Dr who releases before the scalpers get em all 😂..great vid👍

[stevobranno]

love your room with the yellow cabinets ...I started re collecting in 1990 I'm 53 now and I'll be doing it until my last breath! oh yeah

[froggy]

47 year old here and I have an awesome, amazing huge toy collection and do not feel the least bit ashamed of it.

[slimehousetv]
