I've probably got around 30 or more band t-shirts as well.

I have a set of 24 karat gold Pokemon cards. Used to collect the Pokemon picture cards and Spice girls photos but didn't get them all.

I have the complete collection of Star Wars Tazos, including the special book that you had to send away for.

I've also got an original Paddington Bear figure that's meant to be worth quite a bit

i guess you could say i collect CD's! although i haven't bought any in ages, i'd much rather have a genuine CD rather than a copy! Plus i leave the prices on them to see how much i bought them for in 50 years time! :P Also have a small collection of watches and lighters for some reason! :roll: (even though i don't smoke or use them in anyway!)

I have 3 camper van coin boxes, does that count?

I've got nearly 60 model motorbikes, and 7 (I think) model cars.

weirdly i take all the stickers off mine:lol:
i recently bought a couple of albums from BangCD, who distribute the cds out from Singapore. They have arrived with little "original item" hologram stickers stuck to the front of the booklet so i can't even take them off :evil:
ah well for the price i paid, i shouldn't complain :wink:

bet no-one else collects 1940s clothes/shoes like I do!!! And I wear them, they don't just sit in the cupboard gathering dust :)
I used to collect pogs and beanie babies when I was younger, they are in the loft somewhere now, not making me any profit as I had hoped when buying them!

yup got loads of lego aswell :D
few years ago, when we were running out of space, we had a couple of days worth of rebuilding the models to make sure they were complete before we bagged them all up to make them easier to store.......good times :lol:
