Was it the childhood memories – a simple morning TV cartoon show that it comes on the channel every weekend and sparked you to collect anything related to the character? Or was it a stamp on the letter that you first received from your beloved sibling who’s studying overseas? Many reasons and many stories of how one embarked on a journey of becoming a toy collector.
