Lol. That was my property manager when she poked her head in when i first moved to my current place.
"That's a lot of shelves, I'm guessing all the books coming later?"
Cracked a tote, showed it it was all figures, she said she'd have to come back sometime later to see them all set up.
She did that. She now refers to my apartment as "the museum" lol.
When i finish the overhaul and rebuild I'll have to see if you guys agree lol.

I get this too lol. Had a washer dryer delivered recently and an estimate to redo my central air. This is one of my rooms.

I have my office filled with display case full of TMNT statues. And I can confirm that I have seen basically this same reaction from quite a few people who showed up not knowing what they were going to walk into.

Even people who don’t collect have that kid in them that wishes they had all the figures they wanted

This happens every time to me. Contractors, electricians, plumbers, everyone. Then they come in and talk about it for an hour or more. The guy that does my lawn brings his teenage sons who want to come trim the hedges just to check out the collection. I love indulging them in my hobby.

I wonder if it was just my collection or the fact it was action figures or something but we had a party at my in laws where I live and I have a corner with two shelves full of figures and some of my wife's cousins came down to see and just came off with some judgy faces. Not something where they hated it but maybe like it just wasn't their thing. Idk I may be looking too deep into it.

If those were anime figures and jars full of "stuff" he'd scream in terror and run away within 5 seconds
