these days, i'm putting quite a bit of money into slowly building an anime figure collection. it's by far the most costly collection i've ever attempted to start.
at one time i even collected american comic books even though i don't read comic books lol
when i was a kid i collected beanie babies. i kept most of the themed bears since they're the most valuable. they're in plastic cases stored away somewhere.
i also collected pogs when i was a kid at some point.
and then there were the pokemon cards, and the dbz cards for a very short time...cared much more about the pokemon ones
i started collecting mugs from places i've been, even though i never need to use mugs because i don't drink coffee or anything like that
obviously i collect video games, though i wouldn't say i truly started considering it a "collection" until i was about 18, when i suddenly started to buy older consoles and games
i also started collecting vinyls a couple years back, and i still sort of do this to an extent. typically, the vinyls i get are old albums i enjoy. bought secondhand.
used to collect foreign money, pokemon/yugioh cards, and uhhhh that's about it
now all i collect is video games i never play spam;

I skipped over the word "beanie" the first three times I read this and was thoroughly confused.
When I was young I collected zoid models, pokemon and yugioh cards, old Nintendo games. also collected vintage computers but that was more for profit.
now I just collect books and music, I guess.
I used to collect:
Yu-Gi-Oh
Magic The Gathering cards
Beanie babies
Gundam models
Still collect:
Comic Books bassir;
American comics?
you guys
I should note that I was emphasizing the fact that you guys were calling them "American comic books" instead of just saying comic books.

zoid models
shit, I had one of these. it was a mechanical gorilla that when pieced together could lumber forward; it was fairly large for a model. I fucking loved zoids as a kid.
Vinyls (Just preordered the NMH vinyl boxset, my inner hipster squeals), video games, and old cameras. :3
I collected and built gundam models for a couple years hocuspocus;
didn't like the show but the models were cool

Movie theater tickets.
I began to collect them (and actually go to the movie theater; I used to go only once a year or so) only recently, so I have only something like... 7. :(

Roc- Wait we've already been over this. :(
I don't know if I've mentioned the movie tickets, though, so yeah, movie tickets. I saw I Am Legend on January 1st and started from there, now I have 25. :3

$88 but with shipping it came to $108. It was an impulse buy, I have a job and live at home so what else do I have to spend my money on other than gas and car insurance.

I really want to the the Flaming Lips' Heady Nuggs box set, but it's like $130+tax, and I really don't have that money to spend on things I don't need. :(
Maybe when I get a job hocuspocus;
Used to collect pokemon cards, ticket stubs of all varieties, shot glasses, foreign money. Still have the shot glasses and money somewhere at my parents' house.

I know the feeling. :3 and give into it fairly frequently.
