I suppose that's supposed to imply having littles in the system? That's just steriotyping all around. It reminds me of the Hollow Men sketch where an marketing group was trying to associate ham with being gay. Not all systems have children, not all system children have or want plushes, and there are plenty of adults who have plushes.
It's been my experience that legos, and erector sets aren't nearly as immediately associated with system children, and it's something that kind of bothers me, because these toys could be both fun and educational.
Other possibilities to consider:
You're a pack rat and never threw out your toys.
You've never outgrown collecting memorabilia.
You have kids.
You are susceptible to nostalgia induced impulse purchases.
You are secure enough in your adulthood to purchase childish things.
The plush is just that cool.
Anyway, I have toys, some of them are plush, some aren't. Sometimes it's because of pure dorkdom. The plush Venom is mine dammit, and I'll be first in line for an Omega Red plush.
