Do you collect anything?


I have 9 Citizen watches.

I collected two sets of Batman Trading Cards as a child.

Other movie collectibles

High quality die cast vehicles (not just cars, but mostly)

3D blu rays

Broken hearts

Knowledge

I had a couple of die cast cars as a kid. They are nice decorations.

The die cast world is nuts today, adult collecting is popular and there are a ton of companies that cater to it.

Here's one of the newest companies on the "detailed" scene, and remember, these are Hot Wheels size (1/64):

Neeerd!

Just kidding. 😉

I guess I am!☺ I'm not a fanatic collector or anything, but once in a while I'll add a few to my mother's childhood collection.

reply

I never would have guessed.

reply

One job I had I used to cut out the stamps from client mail and put it on my cubicle wall. Some stamps are amazing art.

reply

I'm against collections. First step toward hoarding.

Ventriloquist dummies & DC Comics ''Tales From The Crypt'' & ''Weird Science''

Are you a ventriloquist?

reply

I tried, not good...Just being a dummy does wonders for me.

reply

It seems the only thing I currently collect is dog hair.

reply

Liquor bottles. I've got a white labeled Jack Daniel's bottle in my bedroom and there'll be a Jim Beam next to it once it's empty.

When I was a kid I collected stamps.
Today I have several books on anthropology, but I wouldn't say I collect them.

reply

I work at a theme park. I like to see match children’s features to their parents as they come through. That’s anthropological, yes?

reply

Yes indeed!
