I was wondering, what type of stuff do you guys and gals like to collect? Toys? Videogames? Trading cards? Comics? Vinyl records? Pogs? What items would you like to add to your collection? I recently got into the habit of collecting toys, mib. My collection is small atm, but I'm hoping for that to change. I currently have Mega Man and Sonic amiibos, A classic Sonic figure (with MotoBug) and a Shadow figure, dressed in Knight armor. I'm trying to snag Sonic toys manufactured by Jazwares, as they are currently out of production, with some fetching high prices on eBay. I would really like to add Classic Eggman with Eggrobos to my collection, and a Harley Quinn figure (Based on TAS) I also like to collect videogames, recently got Wind Waker back in my collection, having foolishly sold it a few years back. Well, enough about my stuff, how's about you?
 
I don't really collect anything. I have a handful of Marvel and DC t-shirts, but that's about it.
 
I love dope ass t-shirts. Mostly Marvel and Star Wars but I have some others as well. Last I counted I had about 80 fandom shirts hovering around $1,700 or so for the collection. I also love dope hats that match my cool shirts. Think I have about $500 or so in hats. I also like to collect Funko POP! figures too, they are awesome. But cool shirts and hats are my main thing. I do Loot Crate too so I get cool stuff from things I wouldn't normally collect as well with them.
 
Wow, $1500 in shirts? That's impressive. Do you wear them or keep them framed? I was eyeing some Funko Pop! Sonic toys. The prices for those are ridiculous.

I wear all my gear, it's a bit of an addiction haha. After I wear a shirt a few times it starts to lose its appeal and I want new dope shirts. I did an experiment a little while ago and tried to not do laundry until I wore all my shirts. I ended up doing laundry because I ran out of good underwear. I did make it about 80% through my shirts, though, and didn't do laundry for about 2 1/2 months I believe. I'm in the process of getting more boxer briefs so I can go through my whole collection.

For the POP!'s my job pays me in Amazon money for my commission so I'll just buy them with that. I usually try to buy things I'd normally spend real money on, stuff for my DJ biz and things I want like POP!'s.
 
I have loads of bits and pieces but my main interests are Transformers Masterpiece toys and the 3 3/4 Star Wars super-articulated figures, super-articulated here referring to figures with elbow and knee joints unlike the new Happy Meal toys that are being passed as The Force Awakens toyline.
 
He-Man action figures (and other science-fantasy figures that are scale compatible), GI Joe action figures (and other scale compatible military toys), autographed 8x10s of celebrities I like and autographed "window cards" from theatrical stage shows.
 
I collect Lego sets. Some Star Wars some not. Probably @$2k worth. I have some Star Wars action figures but not as much as I used to. They were from the Potf2 line forward but I sold/donated the majority of them as I was no longer interested in keeping them.
 
-Upper Deck Marvel Studios Costume Cards
-Signed Prints from Artists at Conventions: half of them are celebrity.
-[Used to collect] autographs from personnel involved with the Halloween franchise: I have a signed copy of One Good Scare, from Stef Hutchinson; two signed photographs from Danielle Harris (one as Jamie Lloyd, the other as Annie Brackett.) I also have two signed interior pages from Autopsis.
-Before Creepy Tees self destructed, I bought two of their collector anniversary boxes from Friday the 13th.
-Speaking of interior pages: I have an assortment from Terminator, Red Sonja (Simone's run,) and a color guide for Scarface's debut in Batman comics, which I unfortunately found out is a fabrication (even though the price I paid for it did not reflect it.)
-Marvel Legends, Star Wars Black series, and DC 6" action figures.
-Marvel Masterworks and DC tpbs/hcs.
-Film trailers.
-Props: I have a prop from Rob Zombie's Halloween II.
-Limited edition prints from Rob Zombie. My treasured one is a poster for 31.
-Twin Peaks merchandise: I have a 63x80 Fire Walk With Me Poster.

There's plenty of Godzilla merchandise that I try to get my hands on every now and then. Figures, statues, posters, etc. I don't get them too often as the good stuff tends to be pretty expensive.
 
I started collecting autographs recently. I got Harrison Ford, Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Ryan Reynolds and Adam Driver so far.
 
You get them or you buy them NotSoLongAgo?
