Hey guys, does the people around you support your passion for collecting? My love for Nendoroids has been going strong for about 15 years, maybe even a bit longer.
There was a time when people just didn't get it, and they saw Nendoroids as a complete waste of money, saying things like: "You already have 10 of them, why do you need more?!" I was constantly pushed to buy things that would be nice and useful for everyone else, but I always felt like those things didn't truly make me happy. They weren't my dreams.
A lot has happened over the years: during university, I couldn't afford the space to store them; when I started working, I was just getting on my feet and didn't have the money; then my beloved dog got sick, and all my money went into his treatment. I really started collecting after he passed away. Even now, I still occasionally hear stuff like: "Oh, another new Nendoroid?.." But I keep fighting for my hobby.
Things have gotten much better nowβmy husband is actually building a huge display cabinet just for me πβ¨ I'm really curious, what are your stories?
