Show off your Collections

[RainbowToeSocks]

I'm pretty sure it's safe to assume that we're all nerds here (we are on a starcraft fansite after all)

Anywho, People should post pics or at least mention some collections or their most geeky things.

I personally have a half decent Transformers Collection.

I'll post some pics once im back from work but for now you gotta wait :p



ANYONE ELSE!?!?

[Pandonetho]

I used to have a small collection of those bionicle (sp?) toys. They were actually all from my friends though I never bought any myself.

I also used to have 3 or 4 gundam wing models, including Wing Gundam, Shenlong Custom, Deathscythe Hell, and the Tallgeese III.

[LordofAscension]

I have more Blizzard, SC, WC, and Diablo things than you could shake a stick at. They include, statues, action figures, exclusive signed framed art, blah blah blah. I've spent a fortune and all it does is sit in an unused room in a couple of different houses. It will until I have the $$$ to build my dream home. Oh yes I collect. I also collect Yoda things.

~LoA

[DemolitionSquid]

I place little value on functionless novelty items. Thus, I collect novelty t-shirts :D

[Xyvik]

I have a pretty darn good collection of heroscape and a pretty massive collection of Legos.

Other than that...

PS
Oh, and also, I object to being called a nerd. Nerds are lesser geeks. I am a geek ;) I'll post some pictures later this week when I get my camera working again.

[Visions of Khas]

The only collection I have are a huge library of fictional novels and history books I inherited that can't all fit on even three book shelves. Gonna have to sell some of it. :(

5,690 files, 751 folders, 31.6 GB.

In the past as a kid I've held many collections of novelty items including Snapple bottles, Zippo lighters, coins, MAD magazines and toy lines (Transformers, StarCom, Star Wars).

[spychi]

I love to collect stuff from games. I have a big games collection, game magazines and stuff like that (however I don't have the time to make pictures of my magazine collection, tooo big). And I love to spend extra money on collector's editions (Mass Effect, Gears of War, Dead Space special edition, Dawn of War 2)

I the only thing I have a collection off are guitars... my brother steals all the games and keeps them in his room. :p

[sandwich_bird]

I the only thing I have a collection off are guitars... my brother steals all the games and keeps them in his room. :p I'm guilty of doing the same to my sister:D Well not really anymore but I used to before I moved out to go to university.

Anyways, I want to see your guitars!

[milo]

I've got a collection of ~450 CD's but I'm not particularly proud of it. It just seems excessive. I'm making an effort to sell a bunch of it off - I've gotten rid of around 50 albums over the past few months, with more on the chopping block.

[screw_ball69]

Ok, this is were I get to sound like a huge geek (hooray!)

I used to DJ so I got a ridiculous collection of music, 200+ cds 50ish Vinyls and close to 150gbs worth of digital music.

I have a huge collection of books nearly 4 book shelves worth

I have a near complete set of North American NES Games between me and my room mates, I have all the major games for the SNES and N64. I also have more or less every PC FPS since Castle Wolfenstien.

I have a retardedly huge movie collection as well

I'll upload pics as soon as I find my camera as well as a few other collections I have

[Arkalis]

Necromancy....Still remember that half of SC:L staff reminded me of it...I don't have all those warnings piled up in my files do I?

-> About the thread: I don't collect anything...I require additional pylons ($$$)

Nah don't worry about it. Everyone make mistakes sometimes. Even I did some necromancy a long long time ago.

Atari: 108 games, boxed in my garage
NES: 472 games, boxed in my garage
SNES: 381 games, boxed in my garage
N64: 38 games, boxed in my garage
GCube: 61 games, all but 4 boxed in my garage
PS1: 110 games, boxed in my garage
PS2: 211 games, all but 6 boxed in my garage
Wii: 41 games
CPU: I'll simply say my collection is worth well over 10k USD. I had to give up the majority of the boxes years ago because I simply didn't have enough room... aka I got married. I have 8 books of CDs (the 4 CD sheets, 25 pages each) of installation disks. This doesn't include a plethora of games which I used to have on 5.25 and 3.5 disks which amounted to over 400-500 disks worth of small games. (I was going to throw them away, but my mother took them. We weighed the drawers they were all in, it amounted to 91 lbs.) I think I have about 5-6 old tape backups of other games as well which we decided to start doing back in the day to try and alleviate space concerns and open up disks.

I also collect gaming computers.. but that's a different argument...

NOTE: The reason why I know how many games are in the garage is that we did spring cleaning last year, someone was curious how many games I had, so as he was helping me, he wrote on each box their contents. I just had to take a small trip and look it up/add them up.

My wife brought her collection of 400+ dvds into our life :) I also have a basic collection of penguin items... it's not really something I "collected" but rather, if my family or friends see anything related to penguins, they buy it for a gift for me. One birthday I received 9+ penguin related items. Needless to say my kids are inheriting it.

Holy freaking crap. Ever thought about ebaying some of that stuff? Does your garage have room for a car?

I guess you could say i collect pc games. I've got a collection of about 60 or so. I've never been much of a console guy, I like my mouse and keyboard too much. First pc games I ever played were worms armageddon and starcraft... been hooked on pc games ever since.

[LordofAscension]

Here's the start of the Bioshock collection. 4 posters, the exclusive pen, the exclusive Bio2, 3 action figures, the Bioshock doll, and the eve hypo on the way:

For reference, the pictures are across the hall from the display case. And yes - the BestBuy sticker needs to come off the pre-order box lol - it was a gift that I just received and shoved it in there for the picture. There obviously more shelves to the stand and all but the last one are going to be Bioshock stuff.

Cheers,

I've got a small collection of Star Wars Power of the Force figures. They are in my attic...somewhere. Around 20 I think. All still sealed in their packs too.

I've been meaning to go up and dig them out. One or two are worth a little money, surprisingly enough.

I do have a Boba Fett, but not one of the ones worth $500. Really po'd about that.

I'll post a picture up here someday soon if I ever find them.

[TheRabidDeer]

I have several thousand baseball cards from the early 90's (like 1989-1993), I stopped collecting them though. No pictures =[

I also have a few hundred movie posters from about 1986 to 1995. Any major movie that came out in that period, I have the original poster. Also have a few of the giant banners that theaters displayed, like one for Batman Returns. Its probably about 10-15 feet wide and 3-4 feet tall. I dont have room to display it anymore though =[

How about a box of presidential M&M's? I ate those! Got it for my birthday during Clinton's re-election campaign since my grandma was running his campaign in my city.

[TheEconomist]

@Blazur:

Did you download each of these individually?

I like to record internet stream radio for genres I'm not too fluent in so I have over 100GB on DVDs of music that I know very little about other than that I like the genre.

[evillesh]

I collect all tickets that I used (transport, concerts, events and etc.). Got a big album :)
