Do you guys collect anything?

used to collect old cars and chopped triumph motorcycles, all I have left now is a 1953 Ford F100 that's all kustom. Sold the others before my wife and I moved from seattle to raleigh, tough to move 5 cars , a pregnant wife, 2 golden retrievers, 3 cats and a kustom triumph from coast to coast........

I had a small collection of vintage Dean guitars. I had a '78 ML, an '80 E'lite and and '81 ML. I only have the '81 left. I got turned off by Dean when they started their comeback and flooding the market with crap. They didn't have the same aura after the resurgence. I am about to get into Robin guitars. They have some really cool pieces. I got rid of my porn collection years ago. I had all the good stuff too. Swedish Erotica, yeah baby!

I collect G1 Transformers. I have 100+ a the moment. Though I do not want the entire collection. Just the figures that were actually in the cartoon and movies. I have about 70 to go I believe

I am one of those sneakerheads. I have close to 140 pairs of sneakers. I started with my original pair of Air Jordans (ca. 1985) given to me by my brother when I was young. I now have all 23 editions, usually in both colours (white and dark). I have 3 pairs of the same shoe in some cases. For example, I have pairs of the Jordan XI, my favourite. I have all white, all black, 3 pairs of white/black (one original from 1995 and 2 from 2001), one pair of all grey, and white/NC blue in low cut. I also have his Trunners etc... I say my Jordans take up 60-70 pairs of shoes. All of these Jordans are real, not fake... but I do have some fake ones that I got while travelling/living in Asia. When I moved overseas, I left them at my parent's place in the original boxes.
In fact, I think the Jordans of the recent years look like crap, but I feel obliged to buy them.

I also have a whole ****load of shoes such as my Air Force I, Nike Mcenroes, Adidas clamshells, Nike Hardaways, CB4s, Pumas etc... but I never wear them. I usually just wear my Nike Shoxs, Asics or my Chucks.

I do not collect, but have alot of toys from my childhood in mint condition. My mother always told me to take care of your toys and keep the box in good condition and to put them away etc... Here is a list from what I can remember:

Transformers (Generation 1)
Optimus Prime
Megatron
Soundwave
Red Alert
Jazz
Shockwave
Blitzwing
Jetfire
Astrotrain
All the Constructicons
Sideswipe
Wheeljack
All of the Dinobots

Gi Joe
The Hovercraft
The Raven
F.A.N.G.
The Rattler
Other stuff such as action figures, but I loved Zartan and his Chameleon

He-Man
Both Castle Greyskull and Snake Mountain
Main characters

I was a spoiled kid. All these toys are still stored in my parent's attic.

I collect puck marks

Hockey things: masks, cards, figurines, etc

Others: a little of asian culture and weapons, Hip Hop music, McFarlane dragons, magazines(Hip Hop/Fitness/Martial arts/Graffiti), books, some Homies figurines, odd old doodads...

I'd like to collect more things, but space and money are issues. I'd like to collect some Goldorak(Grandizer) figurines, movies, certain art or posters. There's too much to get into

[Jon45189]

New Era Yankees fitteds. Close to 100 now.

[NHLAlum Target]

Guns

Thanks for reminding me that I need to buy yet another safe.

[KBeats]

The only thing I'd say I "collect" would be straitjackets.

[junior1cats]

Hockey jerseys.
Signed pucks from pro's I played with or meet.
Sticks, jerseys and socks and auto'd pictures from NHLers I played with.
Pins and little figures and gifts from other teams, like Russian teams I coached against.
Most all team pictures, medals, trophys and plaques from 17 yrs of coaching.
Vintage sticks.
Bob and Doug Strange Brew items.
Pro Football jerseys.

And a wide assortment of over 200 stitches in my face.

[Threeleggedyoyo]

Transformers stuff also, especially the older 80's stuff. I have all the DVDs of the original series and about 50 of the 80 original comics. I also have a lot of the old toys. I don't usually go out and buy them individually, but I like buy or to pick up whole collections off of people I meet who don't want them anymore. Speaking of which, Beaver, if you ever need more space in your attic...

A few of the better ones from my toy collection:

Omega Supreme
Sixshot
Devastator
Jetfire
Optimus Prime
Soundwave
Blaster
Sideswipe
Cyclonus

I have DVDs of the original series, Beast Wars, and Beast Machines. I don't care much for stuff relating to some of the other series, though, and I don't really like stuff relating to the recent movie.

I also collect music equipment to some degree.
