Just received my Eaglemoss Galactus from my eBay purchase.  Very cool.  The Galactus ones are hard to find, glad I won the bid.  My wife looked at it and said he looked like a bug.  Hmmph!  What does she know? 
It's funny, I've been picking up a lot of these older Marvel ones on eBay and they've been arriving piecemeal for a few days now.  She keeps asking, "Another package?"
I tell her it's not like I drink or smoke!  These damn things are fun.  Wish I'd started last year though, I'm spending a little more than when they first came out, but not too bad.  I'm all caught up on DC, so just need to get some of those early Marvel ones still.
I don't know what she'll say when the Heroclix Galactus arrives!

This has long been a justification in my own mind for the insane amount of money I sometimes spend on toys. No matter how much it is, I can reach out and put my hand on all of it. Nothing went up in smoke or up my nose!

JB - If I ever get a Annihilus commission please promise that is the pose you pick?  That is incredible and kind of makes me want to get back in the statue game.

Yes, I was thinking in the New Mutant ...pretty cool that Adam Warlock, anyway, thanks Matt.

Oops, in midtowncomics there aren't all the figurines, I must try with Ebay too. It's going to be hard to find all I want.

I miss too a nice Captain Marvel and more Asgardians: (Sif, Heimdall, Karnilla, Hela, Frandal, Hogun, Surtur, Fafnir...) They'd be a pretty nice figurines, maybe in the future because there are more important characters in Marvel than the Asgardians :(

Yeah, like Blink and X-23.

I also use not drinking, smoking or following sports as the reason I can afford comics and toys. My wife is way cool with what I spend on them but others sometimes question the amount of money I must have spent (That and that I have my Star Wars collection logged on a spreadsheet).

She's nicely curved, I think.  I do remember a story or two where her spells were used to fix/maintain her looks.  I'd take it from those that she looks exactly how she wants.  Could have been worse:
