Did the toys you played with as a kid end up having any relation to what you do as an adult?
In hindsight I didn't really play with toys, which is probably just another indicator of autism that got ignored.I remember my mum got pissed that my aunt wouldn't let me touch her beautiful collectible teddy bears, and now I have like 6k of bears on the shelf next to me. So sure, I guess.
>>11250843I played with army toys so I became a fascist
>built bases for my green army men out of whatever shit>had huge race wars between my PVC ninjas because I somehow had a hundred of them>Transformers Cybertron mexican standoffs where Autobots and 'Cons would line up and blast the fuck out of each other>crazy skirmishes with my legos because I wanted to play PVP games but couldn't run them on the family computerNever once mixed my toys together and I'm worse off for it. Toys never influenced me either.

>>11250843I think Lego inspired a sense of control. I hated it when other kids would visit my house and mess with my creations. I also try to be systematic/modular when I rearrange my room. every part of my room: bed, shelves, desk are all hugging the wall right now because I need that big empty space in the middle. I wanted to use that space to play with toys on the floor, but I never do that. I am happy with the general flow ive created though
>>11250875Your mom sounds like a fucking bitch and autists do play with toys.
>>11250843>mixed up all my toys and lines and built elaborate dioramas/towns and made up societies and lore and quests etc>still mix lines/series and arrange dioramas and enjoys miniatures as an adultGuess so. Picrel, probably influenced my diorama/miniature autism and line mixing as I mixed in other toys with them.
