Wow, that's an interesting story... a $200,000 Star Wars collection & a TK. To bad his wife wants him to sell it.
Anyone have the video????

I didn't watch the show but I just read the link and the slideshow highlights. Parts of the story are really sad.
No one should make you change who you are if you aren't doing anything illegal or immoral. About the other issues, it just really sounds like she didn't get to know him before she got married to him. He certainly shouldn't have to sell off his collection unless it is something he wants to do. Now he probably does need to slow down the spending and balance purchases out a bit, lol. $200,000.. yikes, lol. It seems strange that he didn't try and marry a Star Wars girl though. Oh well, I wonder if anything really changed as a result of that show for them or if this was just 15 minutes of fame and ratings.

Getting married and having two kids.....I can relate to the guy. You are going to have to scale down!!!!!! Get rid of it all? Now that's too much. I don't do any figures anymore. Just the armor/prop stuff. To give a little hint on how many toys I had??????? WEll, they paid for repairs on my wifes car and all of the prop stuff I have I either traded toys for or used the money I made from selling toys. I have not had to spend cash from the ole check book. This makes the wife REALLY HAPPY!!!!!! Especially now that dang near everytime I go to Walmart with my son, he wants a hot wheel or Cars toys.......Great he got the collecting gene from me. I am screwed if my little girl is the same. I don't know if I can handle buying Barbies and My little pony stuff.
........Maybe the wife will do it!

Dont worry about the little pony stuff. Most of them prefer Bratz.
Also, Starwberry Shortcake is making a comeback!

Its a toss up between swinging her light saber and playing with Barbie dolls for Catherine.
