ppl act like figure collectors buy 10+ figures a week and built their collection over night. i feel that a real collection is smth you make over time and the fact people buy such cheap crap from temu or aliexpress shows you don't see merch collecting as a real hobby imo

We really need to stop with this lazy argument.
Buying bootlegs encourages the overproduction of figures that ALREADY exist, plus, they're made with toxic material and constitute art theft.
I'd add that figures are not that expensive when bought secondhand (especially from Japan)
