Does Owning Too Many Models Make You A Geek?

So many people think that Sci-fi models like the Dr Who ones and models such as Star Wars and comic book ones are really geeky but is this true or something that is just ignorant?

The Models

If you take a closer look at some of the fantastic models out there you will see exactly why people buy them. When you look into some of the detail on these models there is no doubt that a lot of work has gone into it. From the RC cars that feature in the many Batman movies to the remote controlled helicopters that you see in films such as Avatar and Transformers.

The makers of these models really spare not cost when they are making the models themselves. They look at all of the initial plans for the vehicles from the creators and it will take close look at the drawings and the images from the films and then they will work hard to make the model the best it can be.

It is certainly true to say that models can be a bit geeky but this is only if you are filling up rooms full of them and you do not ever open them. If you like to have a couple of models from your favourite movies then I really cannot see a problem with this at all. Surely these people are often just jealous and simply call these people geeks because they have very rare and expensive models. How about something like a light up with sounds Back To The Future car, that is certainly awesome. 88 MILES PER HOUR MARTY!

So there you have it, are models like RC tanks really that geeky or is it only if the person has loads of them? Does it matter what people are thinking if you are a collector of the models, you most likely could have a lot of money if you sold them.
