Ever wondered how a single piece of geek memorabilia can unlock a floodgate of memories? That's exactly where we land in this nostalgic episode, unearthing the treasures that line the shelves of our lives. From my Little Mermaid keepsakes to Hanna's Funko Pop fortress, and not to overlook Stacey's impressive D&D dice collection, we take you on a tour of our most cherished collectibles. And yes, I'll even let you in on how a galaxy far, far away found its way into my wedding vows!
Step into the vibrant world of collecting where each item tells a tale richer than the next. Halloween costume plans morph into heartfelt discussions about the friendships that shaped us, leading us down a path lined with carousel horses, Barbies, and eventually, to the prized Star Wars memorabilia that holds a grandmother's love. Discover how the joy of finding sleek A-Wings at the store intertwines with the emotional wealth that these collections bring to our hearts. It's about much more than just the collectibles—it's about the shared experiences they signify, connecting us to one another and to the moments we treasure most.
Hold on to your autograph books as we whisk you away to the bustling floors of comic cons, reliving the thrills of snagging signatures and the unexpected delights of mingling with the likes of Sean Astin. I'll share the story behind my prized autographed Stan Lee Funko Pop, and we'll explore the sentimental journey behind each item we've gathered over the years. From tips on convention survival to musings on the intricate details of "The Last of Us" figures, this episode is an invitation to celebrate the stories behind our geeky passions.
