DVDs, particularly older horror/exploitation movies. Comics, mostly 70s-90s Marvel stuff, but some DC stuff as well (particularly Vertigo stuff) The wonderful Marvel Essentials reprint trades. I have almost the entire Chris Claremont X-Men run, the Official Handbooks of the Marvel Universe, and other assorted MEs. The fantastic Marvel Legends figures Toy Biz did from the early-mid 2000s. Once Hasbro took over the line, the quality of the figures kind of went to shit, imo, but those Toy Biz figures were pretty top notch. The Toy Biz Legends figures were incredible. Hasbro took over, used cheaper plastic, worse molds and doubled the damn price. Now they are using better stuff and better molds, but they are $20 each. I never did find Deadpool and that pisses me off to this day. Oh, I know, and now he's sky high, even loose. I used to have Deadpool (and Doop), but lost my entire collection in various moves.....trying to get them all back now, but I doubt I'll luck into another Deadpool again. My Holy Grail find from that run would be a Hawkeye, complete with sky glider and weapons.....he's another pricey one. |

Used to collect autographs and dinosaur fossils. Now collect scale-model aircraft kits. Although, a working-from-home job and a new PS4 means I haven't made one for a while  Getting the urge to do so again though. I find it a fun, relaxing hobby... I prefer to make cold-war and WW2 era planes. |

Not really. I get to watching shows like Canadian Pickers or American Pickers and think I should, then about a month ago I helped my grandparents move, while they're not on the level of any of those people, they don't collect things, but I swear, they haven't thrown anything out since World War 2. I know for a fact I moved shit older than my dad. I asked my grandpa if he was starting up a casino, he said no and asked why, I said you must have 80 packs of unopened playing cards here. Most of them are from when they used to go to Vegas and are from hotels that don't exist anymore....I can't imagine having to move collections of things.
If I can be said to collect anything, it'd be beers, but I drink those and toss the empties.

I collect comics digitally, but I don't have the space for an actual collection, and in general I prefer having a lot of money in the bank to "things".

I collect shoes, plimsolls and Vans mainly, must have every colour imaginable now haha. I do have a bad habit of buying them then forgetting I have them. I find them weeks/months later then wear them into the ground.

Up until the WWE Network I was trying to collect every WWE PPV on DVD, but I guess I could make a pretty penny on selling them. Might keep the WrestleManias though.
I've thought about buying every Doctor Who TV story available but considering a good portion of the early series is lost to time not to mention the daunting prospect of getting them all and the cost involved I'm holding off on doing that for the time being.
On the comics side of things I'm buying the Marvel Masterworks so I can get a good feel of them all (I only got into comics last year thanks to the MCU). I've only bought the first four of Spider-Man's series but I'm planning on doing the Avengers and Daredevil soon. I hear Marvel Unlimited is pretty good, does anyone know what that entails?

I'm the same. I have every WWE PPV on DVD/Bluray up to WrestleMania 30. With the UK getting the WWE Network eventually, WrestleMania might be a good place for me to finish up the collection. |

I've got a fair-sized portion of The Criterion Collection on my shelf (should go over 200 titles with the upcoming sale), including several out-of-print titles.

Three things.
Video games: That's my biggest collection. Lots of retro consoles as well.
Foreign Currency: This is from going from country to country. I like to take the leftover smaller coins and bills from the countries I've been to. I have a decent sized collection of those from everywhere I've been.
Flags and patches: Basically I put the patches on my backpack from every country I've been. I also make sure to grab a flag.

All kidding aside my WWE DVD/Blu Ray collection is well over 500 now. I did actually manage to get every WWE PPV DVD ever released. Took lots of importing Tagged Classics but I did it. The only 2 PPV's I don't have are the 2 to never get a commercial releases. This Tuesday in Texas, and The Wrestling Classic. |
