My wife didn't know what she got herself into when she pre-ordered Indy for me earlier this year. I had never heard of Sideshow before that. Once Indy was pre-ordered, I started trolling the Sideshow site and pre-ordered ANH Han. And once I actually got Han, I went crazy and started getting stuff off ebay like a maniac! Now my wife curses the day this ever started! She's more concerned about the space and where I'm going to be keeping all these figures--right now they're cluttering my desk and there's not much room left. She wouldn't mind at all if I found a very discreet place to store these, out of sight. I intend to clean out a closet in my office so I can have them all on shelves, and be able to close the door in case of company!
She knows I'm serious about this collection because normally it takes me a long time to mull over buying something. I'm usually very thrifty, but I'll plunk down the dough for these babies in a heartbeat! There is nothing else I buy with this little hesitation. Everything else takes weeks of research and soul searching to really know if I truly want item X.
So when something new arrives on the front porch, I get the eye rolls and the "where are we going to keep all these?!?"
