My mom got me a Barbie for Easter this year, and I'm almost 18 :) I adore stuffed animals and keep an ever-growing collection on shelves in my bedroom. I'm actually afraid to bring my Pillow Pet with me to college. I'm very attached to it and am afraid it might get ruined somehow.

So yeah, I don't think it's weird at all.

I love fluffy animals and sylvanians. I have all my animals out on display in my room and I really do not care what people think.

I LOVE toys, its why I became attracted to tabletop because it was like I was painting and putting my own toys together. Same thing for model airplanes. I don't collect transformers but I do have a generation 1 starscream (missing his missile launchers) sitting on my bedhead. He and Thundercracker are the only transformers I ever liked, never got very heavily into the fandom. Growing up I had lots of favorite toys, especially when I was little. One was this literal bucket of tiny plastic dinosaurs that came with a hollow volcano. It was about 30 or 40 dinos in the pack, cheaply made plastic molds but I LOVED them. They were my bathtime friends when I was little!

My all time favorite toys would have to be my Jurassic Park "battle damage" dinos, which I sadly lost years ago and my Kenner Aliens. I like plushies a lot, I have a windrider (don't play warcraft anymore but he's a sweety!), a master tonberry who stands about 10'' tall complete with lantern, a little chocobo (given to me be a boy) and a chest burster from Alien :o! The plushies best buddy is my stuffed dolphin "Flipper" whom I've had since the third grade. He use to have a brother "Antonio" but i gave him away to a kid that needed a heart transplant (he was staying with us a few years ago and took a liking to my dolphin twins). I have a very autistic attachment to Flipper and I treat him like a real living creature, if anything happened to him or he was lost I would cry. I also have several small Pokémon figurines too, had to throw out a few that were simply falling apart (Charizard lost his tail and wings) so right now I just have tododile and Groundon. I use to have A LOT of Pokémon that are sadly just gone, once I have money I plan to scour ebay, among my old collection I had the original KFC plushies: Vulpix and Zubat! I also recieved a Meowth and Pikachu for Christmas then got a Dratini later on. Vulpix and Zubat were my absolute favorites and my sister took them away with her to college and I never saw them again (she's stolen so much of my stuff :roll:). The little plastic toys were AWESOME, they stood a couple of inches high and I proudly displayed mine at the top of my locker. I just remember having Koffing and Psyduck..its been so long.

Toys rule!

I still love toys, and I'm 20. I have a big collection of die cast Cars...mainly comprised of the characters from the "Cars" movies. There's also a bunch of Johnny Lightning, Hot Wheels, and Matchbox Cars in my collection, too. :D I also have a bunch of G1 My Little Ponies, and some of the toys from G4.

I also have a lot of stuffed animals, too...in fact, I took a picture of my current favorites the other day:

I took my Car collection and my plushies to college with me, as well. :D

I'm 40 and still have a collection of teddy bears of varying sizes. I still cuddle one on occasion for comfort that I've had since I was 6 :D

It's totally fine that you like and collect toys. :) Don't let anyone make you feel bad about it.

I'm not really into toys, but I do read comics and graphic novels, and I m 27. I also wear Captain America tshirts and a Captain America hoodie. But I don't look like a stereotypical comic nerd (in fact, one friend frequently tells me I look like a UFC fighter).
