Chewie Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 Honestly? I never stopped. In fact, on my 18th birthday I bought just over a dozen Episode I figures from Toys R Us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegunny Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 I refuse to grow up so I suppose I've never brought a toy as an adult Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightbat Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 Guess I considered everything I bought as "Toy" mopeds, guitars, computers, even my motorbikes the first "real" toy I bought after childhood was the Yamato VF1A Hikaru waiting for the 1/48 to be released It was all a matter of time though, when I was finally able to buy overseas I would've bought a 1/55 out of nostalgia anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Excillon Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 I kind of dabbled here and there for a while, but didn't go full time until I discovered Binaltech. Mostly I just built Gundam kits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totoro242 Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 My friends and I started buying the new Star Wars line in the mid-90s. That lasted a few years. But eventually gave up on it. Same here. More specifically it was the Galoob Star Wars Micro Machines that initially got me hooked when I was 20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kin Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 (edited) jetfire, yamato 1/48, gakken 1/35.... Not only because I like the anime but also facinated about the whole marketing around it... the consistancy of the storylineand complexity in the toylines... the technical dificulties putted in a toy that eventually get bashed by wild kids. but the jetfire and gakken are rock solid. Toys I bought have got a high value of great achievements in history.... my opinion that is. Edited November 17, 2006 by Kin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baronv Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Well in college I was picking up Marvel figures here and there, these were the mid- to late 90's Toy Biz figures before the nice Legends lines came along. But I had maybe a couple shelves full. The toy craze didn't hit until actually I bought the MPC VF-1S then Macross, Robotech, Transformers and Gundam came forth within the last 3-4 years.
