    Default Collections, past and present.

    Any collectors here? What have you collected, or what are you currently collecting?


    Past;

    Garbage Pail Kids
    Comics (still have all)
    Comic Cards (still have all my complete sets and foils/holograms)
    Baseball/Football/Hockey Cards (still have most, including all my Pete Rose collection, as a kid, I figured his controversial history might make him more valuable one day)
    Warhammer Figures (still have some)
    Stone animal carvings (I believe the artists name was Scott Wolf, not the actor)
    Magic the Gathering (many moons ago, stopped playing/trading/collecting soon after The Dark), still have some
    Star Trek cards (for a month or so, traded on a MTG deal that was just to good to be true)
    Rage (Werewolf card game, still have all of these)
    Guns

    Present;
    Shot glasses from my travels
    Steins
    Turtles (we always find a turtle souvenir)
    Antique furniture/goods
    Just started an antique arms/etc. collection with my son. Got a cool piece in the mail today, a Viking ring, c 850-1,000 AD. Really awesome ring and it fits me perfectly. I'll post up pics of his (ours, mostly his) collection.

    In the past I definitely collected Pokemon cards and POGs. I still have a ton of them, somewhere...

    Now I collect video games. Mostly on my Steam account.

    Never been much of a collector. When I was a kid I used to collect Beano and Simpsons comics. Now all I own could fit in an average sized wardrobe. I like to live minimally.

    I don't collect things, really. Even if I wanted, I wouldn't have enough space for the things.

    In my youth, I had a collection of Pokémon cards, and an action figure collection. Sold them off eventually when times got tough.
    Lately, I've accidentally started a coin collection. I didn't mean to, but I started coming across some old and interesting coins from all over the place. I've managed to get coins from South and Central America, Europe, Australia, and some US coins dating back to before the Great Depression.

    This is what collecting Steam games is for!

    Collecting database values just doesn't have the same impact on me

    I have a shot glass collection, most of them from different states in the US. Unfortunately they sit on a shelf in a cupboard, I'd like to get a display case but I'll wait until I have a more permanent residence because moving trout sucks. I have a small collection of perler bead magnets on my fridge that I get from conventions. I really want a sword, knife and other deadly weaponry collection to hang on walls and stuff but again with the moving....
