Other collections!
« on: April 24, 2008, 12:00:51 am »
Yes, we all collect anime, but we also have some other things we all like to collect besides that.

So, tell us, what else do you like to collect?

Me- I <3 sports. I have a collection of MLB game caps, and sports jerseys- concentrated on MLB and the NHL. It's a tremendous feeling to have this much sports paraphernalia. :D

I collect movies. Not just any movies, but I dig deep and search far for the underground gems of horror, gothic, dark, weird and foreign films. Pretty much the diamonds in the overlooked rough. My personal library has about two hundred dvd's at this point, and it is only growing.

I also collect (and this can be much more fun at times) what I like to call "monstrosities". Action figures, figurines, statues, and toys of monsters and altogether-terrible looking creatures are all over my room. I have figures ranging from McFarlane's Tortured Souls and Hellraiser to Nightmares of Lovecraft Cthulhu and a Predator bust. I love this collection, and it really is a joy to add to. I plan to add the Cloverfield monster to it come September. ^_^

Oh, and how could I forget about my jewelry collection. Lots of antique looking jewelry and finger armour.

I collect business cards and RPG books. I call the RPG books a collection because I only ever get to use 5 or 6.  :(

I'm a Darkstalkers/Night Warriors obsessive; I collect anything and everything with the Darkstalkers name or characters. Some of the figures run upwards of $100, unfortunately T_T  It's not the most popular series in the world, but that just makes the collection more achievable and gratifying when you find one more thing you don't have. I'll have to take a picture!
I don't have the arcade machines, either  >.<;;

And dice, too!!
I have a Crown Royal bag for every different die. I don't have many 30's and 100s, though, so they go in the same bag ^^;;

Likewise.
I blame Pokemon for getting me hooked.  When I went to Japan I bought a lot of pins from the pin dispensers and put them on the cargo netting of my backpack.  By the end of my trip the entire patch was covered with different pins.
