My wife is cool with it & has even complemented me on it many times. Of course I don't have a whole lot of figures (29 Moc) & most of my collection consists of posters, autographed pics & some ring worn items.

I always like to show her my new purchases, even if she just pretends to care. For Christmas and birthdays she'll always pick me up figures Im after. But when she finds out what I spend on certain items you can actually pinpoint the second her heart breaks in half.

My common-law, live-in girlfriend supports it for the most part. She's always trying to find ways to help me save on cash for figures. We live in Canada so it can cost a pretty penny to ship anything in. She'll keep an eye out when she's out.
She's trying to plan a trip to the states with me this summer to try to get some figures shipped to a hotel we'd be staying at. Literally planning a trip around my hobby haha.
She's also helped me be more sensible with what I buy. She knows what I have and is able to give me the "is this something you really want? Or do you want it because it's there?" interviews very well. Really helps me prioritize my wants.

My wife doesn't exactly support it, but she doesn't say much anymore about it either. As long as I keep it in check she is ok with it.

My girlfriend likes it. She's cool with anything I like really. She knew how badly I wanted the Chainsaw Bálor and she was so happy when I found it yesterday. Not as happy as me tho

I'm sure my wife is not crazy about it, but it could be worse. I'm not on drugs, an alcoholic, I don't go to strip clubs, and I don't gamble.....so if I like to buy toys and sit there and look at them....like I said, it could be a lot worse.
She will look for them for me if she's going to the store and there's something I'm looking for. Recently within the last month she's gotten me TNF Macho Man, the TNF Bash at the Beach 3-pack, and she got me 2 HOF Sting figures from Target. I've showed her how to use the Brickseek and she actually opened the HOF box off the stock cart at Target to get me the Sting figures after the guy working said they didn't have any. lol

My wife is pretty cool about everything I collect. I have cut down on figuresomething considerably in the past 2 years. I may buy 1 every other month now. I also collect baseball jerseys. Collegiate and pro, which is a much more expensive hobby. She's fine as long as bills get paid and there's plenty of food in the house. I've learned to keep spending in check the older I've gotten. Mortgages will do that to you.

My wife has mostly stopped buying them for me,but that has more to do with the fact she doesn't know what I have. She will occasionally get me ones that I won't buy on my own like the new day elite in the cereal box. That was a nice xmas gift!

My wife tolerates it, but is a good sport. She'll kindly check certain stores for me for the names I text her to keep an eye out for.

She tolerates it. As the years have gone on its become more of a funds issue due to growing responsibilities. I have a basement and all my stuff is displayed down there. Having a basement for man cave stuff was a must before building our house.

My missus of 9 years hates it.
She has only ever brought me 2 figs.
DM swries 1 HBK
And I nearly passed out the other week when she brought home a 34 inch Stone Cold.
We almost split up 2 years ago and one of the many compromises of reconciliation was to keep the toys in one room. I have failed to do that on about 687 days since then.....

My wife collects Funky pops, I love finding her new ones.
I collect WWE Elites, she hate it.
Seriously I never hear the end of it. She gets 60$ to 90$ fir her finger nails each month. Plus buy funkos like crazy.
She bitched so much recently I sold my entire collection off.
I gave 4 WWE retro, and 1 cactus jack elite. She has over 100 funkos.

Dude! Never give in unless you want to! Should be an equal relationship. My wife collects Funky pops, I love finding her new ones. I collect WWE Elites, she hate it.

My wife is ok with it, She doesn't really like wrestling but likes that I have a hobby. Unless I bring home a crap ton of figures in one week then she rolls her eyes
