Hmmm... I usually have a few figures around the computer and "play" with them a bit once in a while.

And I make a lot of photonovels, and my wife calls that "playing."

Oh, I'm playing with my toys right now. Pretty much every time I'm on here, there's a toy in my hand, when I'm not typing to you folks. Right now I have SAGA Red Guard, Courscant Guard, Clone Commander, and Commander Bly ATTACTIX (BTW the gun he has is dangerous. It hit me in the face and it hurt. The missle, I mean. It also shoots all the way across the room.) plus the other various figures I have strewn about.

Sort of.  Every now and again you may catch me doing the woosh sound of a lightsaber or a blaster sound.  It's over before it begins as far as "playing" is concerned though.  Maybe if I was home more alone by myself I might play with them more.

This is exactly what happens for me...if my wife and daughter go out of town (maybe 3 times a year to visit my in-laws) I get all the stuff out, set up some sort of hangar (so I can get the Vehicles out) and have a small engagement...It's not near as involved as when I was younger, but I do have a 2 story house now (didn't have that as a kid), so the hangar is usually on the landing...I have just as much fun getting them out and putting them up as I do playing with them at this age though.

At 34 am I too old? Not to me I'm not...I'd do it when the wife and daughter were in town, but my wife always wants to be to the cool characters ;) ...and I don't want to share...(kidding, she just rolls her eyes when I get new figs)

I prefer the word "pose", but...  uh...  OK, I don't make the "bee!  bee!"  laser sounds, but I do "pose" my figures some.  I mean, I got these tower things from a toy store the other day (like lookout towers) for cheap, and I had my VOTC Stormies set up in this really cool "checkpoint" scene that wasn't up but for a week... 

Is that playing?  I guess...  in a way.  It sure was fun though!

Oh, and I got these great 4" Predator/Alien figures and I had them in this cool scene briefly where they were either takng skull trophies or the Aliens had cleared out a squad of Stormies.  Looked bitchin' really. :)

Not me...  last time I played with toys like this thread describes I was about 18 and was having a small war with Military Micro Machines - which I still have back home even though the giant airbase/mountain battlefield I built on the back of an old door is gone...

I play with my Attacktix most every day.  I just love shooting those missles.   ;D

Never.  Until I had a child, now I have an excuse to get down on the floor and make funny noises!
