    Ex was awful for this and would be extremely dismissive if I tried to talk about something I was excited about, yet would be extremely annoyed if I didn’t pay much attention to her music or art.

    Hypocrisy.

    My ex didn't even know I was into all this haha. Knew it USED to be something I liked, but thankfully my family was discreet enough to not tell her it was ongoing. Would've turned that month long relationship into a week.

    That sounds look a previous return to me, something Amazon is now notorious for.

    Sorry to hear that. I don’t really speak to my wider family about it these days they just know i’m still into it. My significant other absolutely loves it, starting to get to the point she wants her own small collection. Thinking about getting her some femmes.

    I just don’t see why people have to bash what others love, and then act like their opinion is fact on top of it. No respect.

    Mostly over it. Just was an awkward time in hindsight that's hard to brush off. Glad to hear yours shares the interest! I'd see what of yours interests her most, rather than go straight to the fems, who, let's be honest, suck in plastic form. Except for Legends Nightbird. That thing is fucking gorgeous

    Easier said than done because she eyes up a new piece each time she comes over, just a shame it’s never MY piece.

    Alright everyone, any more Rule 2 postings here will be met with a little more than editing and deletions.
    You should all know better.

    Carry on.

    I guess I was lucky that aside the weird look, my ex didn't really care that much, but then, I was so broke thanks to her at the time, that my collection suffered, but still grew a little bit.

    My wife on the other hand doesn't mind and even supports it as she has how own stuff too. I turned her into a "geek" and she's more of a Star Trek and Marvel fan, and now has a fairly large Groot collection aside other things.

    I hate that if all the franchises Hasbro owns they are doing a crossover with MLP!

    Because we need overcomplicated designs, paint that scrapes off when you transform the figure and weak points that break before you even open the package in CHUG, SS and Cyberverse, right?

    If anything, the MP designers should take lessons from the CHUG and Studio Series team.

    Sometimes we are our own worst enemy...

    Also, I hate you for making me want those things too.

    One of these days Hasbro will make WFC figures that can roll as standard.
