When I was younger, I had one helluva toy collection. In the mid-late 80's, I must've had every action figure, vehicle and playset in the Star Wars, G.I. Joe, and Masters of the Universe toy lines. Including special figures you only got through the mail with proof of purchase, like pre-Hayden Christensen adult Anakin Skywalker (that looked like an older man).
Also got from vending machines every NFL team helmet as of 1987. Of course long before expansion, helmet redesigns, franchise relocations, et cetera. One day, I at least need to burn a few quarters getting the current Denver Broncos helmet (especially since they won 2 Super Bowls immediately after changing from the "Big D" design they lost 4 Super Bowls with).
The end of toy collections and whatnot pretty much coincides with the beginning of Nintendo video game collecting. Everything else pretty much became irrelevant. Nowadays, non-video game collecting for me is stamps, and especially coins (state quarters, presidential and Sacagawea gold dollars).
However, recently I have started up my first toy collection in about a quarter of a century. As you already know if you've visited the thread here about a certain popular equine-themed cartoon lately! yay!Sorry. Was that too loud?
I collect Zippo Lighters, and Titanic memorabilia (The actually ship and event not the movie).
Titanic, the most famous object to ever come out of my country! (That or the pneumatic tyre)
I enjoy collecting CD's, I'd much rather have the physical copy instead of a download. Currently I have about 100 or so.
