    Hello

    Hello,
    I'm a collector of a little bit all toys from the 80s, late 70s and early 90s. I'm married to a very cooperative non collector. We're even moving into a 4 bedroom so I can have two extra rooms for my toys in addition to the toy room I already have at our business (automotive repair, his passion).
    I'm planning to narrow my collection in the near future down to an enjoyable amount. I'm finding it's not enjoyable to buy a toy, stick it in a box, label the box, then place the box on a stack of boxes. I may regret this later as I've seen others do but to me the hunt is the most fun.
    I'm a great admirer of those able to create custom characters. I have no talent at this myself.
    I hope to meet and get to know many of you in the near future.
    Thanks to the mods for approving my account,
    Melissa

    Welcome to our obsession and the best place this side of Eternia!

    I know exactly what you mean about collecting and displaying your collection (I am fortunate enough to have 2 display rooms, since I collect DC/Marvel items as well as MOTU.... and my wife and I don't have any kids, so what would have been smallish "kid" bedrooms I get to claim for my display room/ office / den rooms.

    Jump right in posting and welcome again from this Old Sorcerer!

    Melissa - welcome to the board! Which toys are you in to? What are your favorite lines?

    It is always good to have a spouse that allows us to run rampant with our hobbies. My wife is very "cool" about the whole thing. (Please don't ever add up how much I have spent on my hobby though and I think I will live)
