Do you feel bad?
I was talking about this with my girlfriend the other day after buying more toys.
Does anyone feel bad that they have more 'toys' than their children?
I was thinking that i have more toys now than when i was a child and it made me think, that i have more toys than almost all children would have?
does this trouble anyone else or am i just wierd?

While it is true, I don't care. I have been collecting them. And unlike most kids, I have kept them in good condition and so I have had time to build up my collection.
When I was younger, toys would get lost or left unplayed with until mum gave them away. Had I done the same as I do now back then, then I'd have a whole lot more toys now.

i dont feel bad as i still own most of my toys from when i was kid and almost all of them are complete and in good condition
so yeah i may have more toys than most "kids" but i am just a bigger kid with bigger toys

I like thatbut i am just a bigger kid with bigger toys.
I do worry sometimes about buying them and not giving kids a chance to get them and experience them (not my kids). I believe this reason was discussed in another thread. i dont feel bad for long though.

I feel the same as loophole. I have a big collection because I've just never stopped playing with Transformers since I started collecting them in 1984. I would actually feel bad if I ever 'abandoned' Transformers and stopped loving them... I felt sorry for Toy Story 2's Jessie the Cowgirl during When She Loved Me.

what i also should have asked, do you feel like you have to buy your children toys when you buy toys for yourself?

it cuts deep when sum1 who sees my collection says "what.. are you a kid or something?" or this long silence followed by a long stare up and down my one book shelf, don't like people thinking im a kid even though im a really immature and childish person 8======D (.)(.), i think its perfectly fine when i have a stable income so i can enjoy buying hasbro deluxes and voyagers and other toys i wouldn't be collecting these days (e.g bumper battlers and cyber slammers), mainly for me kids enjoyment and my love of TFs
