a load of old records from when my father was still a some what respected man. he gave them to me some time before he landed himself in prison for killing a friend of his over the last bit of crystal in the pipe. most notable records are a first pressing of sgt. peppers lonely heart and nevermind. the only record ive contributed to it is a first press of music has a right to children by boards of canada that i bought from a friend some years ago and are now extremely rare.
[QUOTE=Trunk Monkay;42815941]I collect antique firearms. Mostly of Russian origin, but I'd like to start collecting German guns soon, I just have to wait until the market settles back down again. [editline]10th November 2013[/editline] Well modern guns too I guess, but I typically aim for older firearms.[/QUOTE] Are those antique as in actually antique or just modern reproductions of classic weapons?
Just weird bits and pieces depending on what it is. I have the collectors edition of Hellraiser on laserdisc because that's a movie i love. I also have the books "Cthulhurotica" and "The Haunted Vagina" because the concept of owning those is hilarious to me.
i collect video games and random steam inventory shit its unhealthy and i need help, but i dont want help.
Dogs and trophies: [t]http://x53.img-up.net/IMG_20131102fb.jpg[/t]
I collect coffee mugs, computer parts, pens, foreign currency, and books.
Anything that is broken or could be used. You could say it is hording, but i have about 5 old PC cases and tons of fans that could be used, but then I lack the time and effort to do something with them.
Obscure 80's records I have some pretty rare stuff
Vinyl records, I'm at around 400 I think. I might have to do a count. I don't want to know how much I have spent on it. My tactic is to buy a few at a time and not look back.
I collect those plastic gift cards you get from retail stores. There's no money on them so does it classify as shoplifting? I'm not sure. I then make them into guitar plectrums but don't use them!
I've started to collect figures from both games and shows, but so far I only have a bunch of Halo, Gears of War, and Attack on Titan figures.
Rubber bands Eastern Bloc antiques/memorabilia - uniforms, newspapers, stamps, etc, especially the DDR
Vinyl Records, WW2 stuff such as Helmets and Weapons. Old Soda Bottles Il take some pictures soon
nothing
video games and consoles. I would collect devkits and other stuff that was never meant to leave nintendo, but shit's expensive, and I don't have a job. I kicked myself when I realized I missed out on getting a couple of GBA devkits off of ebay.
bullet/shell casings.
License plates.
While it's not much of an active hobby (as it would be too expensive) I like to keep a small library of NES titles. I've given or sold a lot of it over the past few years, but I had the classics like Mega Man 2, Super Mario Bros 3, Tetris, Double Dragon II (not as good as the first one methinks), and Duck Hunt (with a zapper that still shoots right on target). Those old games are great fun, and I'd like to think I can keep my NES around long enough for my kids to enjoy it too.
I own a copy of Mein Kampf And I got a Führer cap being delivered, Expensive son of a bitch.

The SiG556 and the Rhino aren't exactly antiques so I haven't really cared to get a manufacture date on those.

Even though I don't care much for guns, I do really like some of the old war time models. Always wanted a Colt 1911, but never enough to go buy one, or to find out if they're even legal here. Pretty sure they are though, but you need another tier of license and I just can't be arsed.
i collect pubes and store them above my penis where nobody will ever access them
The haunted souls of my enemies.
I used to collect chopsticks years back. Now I collect records.
Lyrics to Eminem songs, even his obscure freestyles. I then memorize them.

Ask in the firearms forum in GD; firearms licensing and registration is a lengthy process in Canada so the sooner you start the better.
Guitars. Started out as me trying to find new & unique tones...was ordering shit for deals off of sites like eBay and Craigslist. Then, I went for unique-yet-sensible designs, like Reverend guitars. Didn't even realize I was collecting until I took a pic one day of the 15 I had. Holy fuck
