Collecting things

[Lonely Paper Star]

I like buttons and pinning them all over my bag.

So, what do you guys collect?

[Freya]

Teacups! I don't have too many yet but they are cute and I want more :D I want your panda button.

[chionos]

Coffee cups. Not just at my house either. There are specific cups that are "mine" at my friends' houses and such.

Notebooks.

Books.

[Laddy]

Scrotums.

[chionos]

I thought this was the "Things I suck at" thread for a moment. Got confused.

Thanks Laddy.

I used to collect Magic cards, and still have my collection somewhere. I recently discovered that some of my most impressive cards have at least doubled in value since the last time I bothered checking card prices. I will probably hold onto them for quite some time longer, and then sell them.

I really wish I had bothered keeping my cards in better condition now. I have a Time Walk and an Ancestral Recall (amongst other cards) that were at one point in near mint condition but are probably in only good condition now. That's what I get for not using protector sleeves earlier :<

I also collected coins and paper money for a time. I haven't the faintest clue what that collection is worth now.

I currently collect vinyl records. I mostly collect them so I can make my own rips, which means most of them have been played three or four times maximum. I am quite obsessive about not playing them unless doing so will yield me a better rip than my previous one. They would be worth even more if they hadn't been played at all, but I'm mostly not collecting these for the price.

Oh god this thread again.

I SHALL RETURN WHEN I AM NOT SLEEPY SO I CAN SIT HERE FOR TWENTY MINUTES AND TYPE OUT EVERY SINGLE THING I COLLECT.

[theundeadhero]

Books~
Video Games~
Vinyl Records~ I collect them so I can listen and enjoy though. My collection has probably doubled since I was last active here and I starting collecting them in 2000.

[Night Fury]

People's souls.

[Shauna]

I have a bunch of old and foreign coins. They're probably almost worthless, but I still enjoy collecting them. :3

[Lone Wolf Leonhart]

Blood slides.

I keep them hidden in my air conditioner.

[Faris]

Desk toys. Specifically these ones:

STILL NO FRY :mad2::mad2:

[Shorty]

Alice in Wonderland books! Different copies, illustrations, print dates, etc. I have some really incredible finds that I've stumbled upon accidentally.

I also collect coffee cups! I came home with two from Sweden :love: Although I had to get rid of some a little while ago and that made me sad.

[DownDiagonalLeftA]

I have a nice little comic collection, including a few first appearances. Mostly Marvel.

[Sephex]

I collect Katamaris.

[Agent Proto]

I used to collect baseball cards, but I have since stopped. Nowadays, I just collect dust.

[Jinx]

Men.

[Pike]

MLP toys.

Also video game related toys that go in my video game corner along with my game collection and posters. :omghey:

[Sephex]

Men.

How many do you have? What type? Any of them evolve yet?

[sharkythesharkdogg]

Does mounting debt count?

[Araciel]

GOTTA CATCH EM ALL!!@#!#@#@ :D

(/nerd)

[Scotty_ffgamer]

Books
Vinyl Records
Rocks

I used to be obsessive about getting strategy guides for every game I owned because I thought they looked cool. That didn't last long though.

I got into collecting/playing the Redemption card game a while back, but that obsession only lasted about a year.

I also still have my collections of Pokemon and Yugioh cards in a bunch of boxes lying around. I have a book that holds all of my holographic Pokemon cards in my room. Most of my collection is energy cards as well.

[Futan]

Um. I guess video games(and dust) is about it. The last thing I collected just to collect something was Pogs when I was a young'un. XD

[Aulayna]

Magic Cards. WoW cards. Video Game merchandise (again largely WoW related). Merchandise related to anything I've been obsessing over recently (most recently it's been the London 2012 Olympics - I swear I've entered crazy cat lady territory with the amount of Olympic memorabillia I have now).

Also these LEGO.com Minifigures : Home (http://minifigures.lego.com/en-us/Default.aspx)

Right now you're on post #666. Clearly a sign you should start also collecting copies of the Necronomicon.

[G13]

I collect PS1 era RPGs, Assassin's Creed swag, and Star Wars, well, everything. When women walk into my house the panties practically fly off.

[qwertysaur]

pokémon :bigsmile:

[Clo]

I don't really collect anything. I would say the closest thing I have to a collection are my books and PS1-era jRPGs that I tote around like a brand.

I want to have your babies.

[Mercen-X]

If it's useless, I have it. :p

More specifically, I have a large collection of old gaming magazines. Some are Nintendo Powers I inherited from my cousin. I became a fan of T&T when I found an article on FF7 which led me to pick up a copy of the game (I didn't even remember what FF was until I actually had the game though). GI, OPSM, PSM, Edge Magazine.

I also have a small collection of items that could be used as blunt weapons: pool cues, mop handles, baseball bats, planks (those which can be wielded single-handed)... originally, I collected these items because I like to fiddle with them and twirl them around like I've seen in those karate movies. You might suppose I could just as easily have used a baton. However, I just don't consider the baton to actually exist in this reality. I can't use it and I can't imagine why anyone would want to touch it. I mean, throwing a stick around sounds useful if you want to hit someone or have a dog to play fetch with.

I still have my original Nintendo games despite not having a working system.

My mom collects cat figures. I know a girl who collects old-fashioned keys and items designed to look like them (including pictures of them)

[Miss Lady Shelly]

Comics, twisty puzzles (i.e Rubiks cubes), dragon statues, hello kitty stuff, Monopoly games, shot glasses, different types of drinking glasses. ummm yeah.. thats pretty much it.

[NinjaCoachZ]

I have a pretty impressive Transformers collection.

[Mercen-X]

I had a Beast Wars collection for awhile. I recently gave it to Good Will.

[escobert]

Guns
fish

[Raistlin]

Civil War weapons
Magic: the Gathering cards (formerly)
Tears of unfathomable sadness

I'm not that interesting so I don't collect anything except for funny images from the internet.

I've been considering recently, though, collecting refrigerator magnets. What do y'all think?

So that you can grow up to be a crazy refrigerator magnet lady instead of crazy cat lady?

It doesn't have the same ring, but I like it. Don't put them on your refrigerator, though. Put them everywhere in your house except your frig.

[sharkythesharkdogg]

Foa, you should collect sea shells and glue them all over your car.

Maybe, MAYBE I can collect cat-themed magnets and have the best of both worlds?
