Collections; What do you collect?

I don't have that many collections really. The few I do have:

Total Film magazines. I've bought and kept every issue since the September 2003 one (It had a POTC article in it so I bought it and I liked the magazine so much I kept buying it). I am missing one issue though, one from earlier this year, with X-Men 3 on the cover (which means HUGH!!! OMG!!!), I bought it but it seems to have gone walkabout.

I guess you could say I collect DVDs although I tend to have more of a "Oooh I like this film!" approach to buying.

Like Su I have a large collection of pics on my computer. All subfoldered and organised:

- Clothing: Yes I'll admit it, I have pictures saved of clothes I've seen online that I liked (but will probably never have). And no this folder does not include any pictures of shoes.........*whistle*

- Men: Which so far includes a Hugh Jackman subfolder (big surprise there :rolleyes:) and "Others" that didn't have enough for their own folder.

- Pics of Me: Slightly ego driven (although I think I look like hell in most of them). But this is all the pics of me I've posted in the "Who Are You?" thread and other places.

- MSN smileys: Ays taught me how to get all the smileys I had *coughcommandeeredfromLoonieandStevencough* so there's a file of them.

- Other: Random pics that I couldn't find a place for

- Rumrunner Logos: All the little "Rumrunner" logos Lor made, I saved them just in case (I might want to change the one in my sig someday).

- Sims Pics: Being the Sims Addict that I am I have quite a lot of pics from my game, this folder is mostly pics that I took that looked funny/cool/unusual.

- Sker Bay: Pics I took on one of the beaches in my town.

- Sunflower: Pics of the Sunflower thingy I made for Art (and used to have as my Av waaaay back when Parley started).

- Tenerife Pics: I LOVE Tenerife (one of the Canary Islands) and I've taken a lot of pictures of the hotel and the island and stuff (I really need to go back and get more pictures!!).

- Avs+Sigs: Avs and sigs that I've used or I've seen and liked.

Wow! This thread exploded with people wanting to post here! I didnt know so many people collected so many things!

I also remembered I collect a few other things-

+Some really old baseball cards. I got them at the Baseball Hall of Fame.
+Anything with a colts logo on it. In fact right now I'm wearing a colts shirt and a colts blanket.
+I guess you could say I collect Age of Empires computer games. I have all of them except the first and I try to get all the different versions. Battle for Middle Earth (LOTR), Empire at War (Star Wars).

I collect... DVDs I guess, graphic novels and comics, on occasion figurines of various characters I like if they have an insanely good likeness, and I also have this weird thing where if I see a movie magazine with a comic character on the front I have to buy it, I got so many just because of X-Men or Spider-Man, today I got one because it had Optimus Prime on the front, I'm so weird. :blink:

I collect DVDs, I have somewhere around the 400 mark (I've lost about 50 films this year through lending). I'm a sucker for a special edition too, stick a few art cards in the box or an 'exclusive' sleeve around it and I'll buy it again. As for earlier collections in my life I used to collect sea glass. You know the frosted pieces of glass you sometimes find on the beach where the sea has worn them smooth? They're becoming rarer these days as most beaches in the vicinity are getting cleaner but I still have a big jar of sea glass at my mother's house.
I have 3 guitars, a fairly decent CD collection, I used to religiously buy Total Film and Empire but I've been a bit poor for that this year and due to a backlog of washing up I am apparently collecting milk bottles (although that's only by default). Looking in my kitchen cupboards I'm also collecting half full bottles of spirits and the living room has become a shrine to various games consoles.

Wow what a good thread. I like it!

I collect lotsa stuff... haha. Well I used to collect marbles, beanie babies, breakable animals and stuff back in like elementary school... but moving on more recently lol..

First and foremost I collect Pirates stuff. Lol never would've guessed, right? Of course I collect Pirates and JD stuff.. its a passion/obsession lol.

I collect stuffed animals.. I love the things. My room is crowded with them and the basement has got even more.. everywhere I go, I normally buy the cutest, huggable-ist one, lol, and so my stuffed animals are rather exotic.. kinda.. well my favorite is from Las Vegas, so.. I've got them from everywhere I travel.

Hmm what else? You could say that I collect photographs, I guess, of myself, my friends, my family. I make photo albums and memory collection stuff.. truth be told, I hoard stuff, and never want to throw anything away, so.. I save EVERYTHING. I save gum wrappers and scraps of paper and the hair tie I was wearing when something special happened lol... dont want to forget anything, I suppose.

Oh, and off the top of my head the last real big thing I collect is movie ticket stubs. I save them from whenever I go to a movie, lol, i think I have all of the harry potters and some real old ones as well.. its kinda fun to look back. :)
