Toy hobby activities

November 12, 2008 | By Juliana Heng In How to collect toys |

As a toy collector, what other related activities do you do besides the actual action of buying new toys?  Most of us tend to do the following: 

1) Search online for info of the latest toys to add to your collections.

2) Frequent toy forums to find out the latest buzz about your hobby.

3) Read other toy blogs to admire their toy photos, for toy updates etc.

4) Visit flea markets, toys stores, departmental stores at least weekly.

5) Take photos of your toys for your album, blog, website etc.

6) Organise your toys at home for better presentation or storage.

7) Clean up toys that got dirty or covered in dust.

I used to do this but not anymore:

8 ) Customise your toys into characters that were not made or based on your imaginations.

What about you?  Feel free to add your comments!
