What do you collect? - Page 10

Dreran the Green · 06-01-2004, 05:57 PM

Beatles vinyls and business cards, which are much more interesting than anyone would ever guess.

Sminty_Smeagol · 06-01-2004, 06:17 PM

Well I am sure you could find plenty of people to give you those

(business cards)

Dreran the Green · 06-01-2004, 07:14 PM

hehe, yep.

I have over 500.

Sminty_Smeagol · 06-01-2004, 08:45 PM

Hey I just remember I do collect stuff. But not conciously. Just if I see something I'm like 'cool.' and I tape it to my wall or something. On my wall I have... rust from someone's house... a feather from a dead bird on the side of the road... movie tickets from about 80% of the movies I've been to since like 2001.... receipts... a collage of trash I found on the side of the road....

I believe that was what first got me talking to IR on other-than-the-moot....

ah yes the semen days.

We wont talk about that incident...

Sminty_Smeagol · 06-01-2004, 11:53 PM

What? What incident would you be referring to? I talk to IR on AIM. So he's like my mooter buddy from outside the moot. Semen united us!

Beruthiel's cat · 06-02-2004, 03:13 PM

This is going to sound so dorky...

I collect Beanie Babies. Not like I used to several years ago, but I still have a pretty good collection (about 140). Most prized Beanie: Garcia the Bear that I bought for $5.00 when it first came out. And people bring stuffed beanbag animals to me as souveniers from trips. I have them from Pheonix, AZ, Mount Washington, the Bahamas, etc. I have some Beanies sitting on my computer monitor at work. I like cats more than bears, however (a shock, I know...).

I also have loads of cat items like jewelry and clothing (including a really neat tapestry jacket covered by cat faces...).

I like lighthouses, too, but don't have very much to show for it.

But I don't actively collect things anymore. I usually just acquire things that interest me from time to time.

That's because they're dead. They all got diseased so I bashed their heads in with rocks, remember?

Something · 06-02-2004, 05:11 PM

I collect Cows and Dragons.
And TLOTR figures.

Cat items, often so irresistable.... I have a few cat statues standing on my bookshelves (or the part of my bookshelves that isn't covered by 3 rows of books). I don't really collect them but when I see a really well done cat statue I find it hard to resist.

I'm also incredibly fond of little Bastet-statue.

Something · 06-03-2004, 08:17 AM

I also collect books and films.

johnnyboy · 11-02-2005, 10:48 AM

Sideshow figures, swords, and the replica jewelry. Where does everyone buy there collectibles? I have found Hot Movie Props seems to have everything in one place and it is where I usually go. Anyone know of anywhere better?

Gandalf66 · 11-02-2005, 10:57 AM

I collect pokemon and yugioh cards

Curubethion · 11-09-2005, 01:43 AM

I collect any kind of RISK I can find...it's really cool to see all the different types...

**Nurvingiel** · 11-09-2005, 05:06 AM

Isn't Johnnyboy's post up there blatant advertising? At least the link should be deleted.

Anyway, I collect books, stamps, coins (I don't actively collect them, I just keep cool ones I come across), and post cards.

Embladyne · 11-09-2005, 04:35 PM

Hmmm, I have some magazines which I collect. And sewing patterns, especially older ones. I used to collect glass cats when I was a child, and my grandfather would find me pretty ones when he was out selling depression era glass.

I also collect old toy action figures, and some dolls. I'm very picky, though when it comes to these.

*must resist need for sarcasm....failing.....can't hold on much longer......AHHHH!*

Grey Hairs
Debt
