- If you get the chance have a look at Ted Blaylocks work it is amazing the guy has an amazing telant and picks his subjects well -

So one one out there collects anything:bloated:

I collect Matchbox/Hot Wheels/Siku/Majorette 1:64 cars simply because they are a cheap die-cast collection :D :D I got like 600 :D

do dead brain cells count? bad dreams too.


seriously though I have a small collection of Burago, Maisto die cast 1/18 models

I collect Eagles!!! :D

Taz, where can I find one of those? I want to add one to my collection. :confused:

Four leaf clovers. I have about a thousand of them. A few dozen five leaf ones and a handfull of even more leaves. The larges is an eleven leaf clover (far from a worlds record though) I haven't even gone looking for them in twenty years, but I still have all the ones I found way back when.

Oops. Forgot to mention that I collect shot glasses now. I try to get one from every city I visit (with the name of the town or territory on it)

Ditto! :D

I satrted that in Italy and I also collect knives and swords! Specifically samuri swords!

Well, lets see...

Beer bottle caps... I'm just collecting one from every different beer I drink... Think I've got about 200.

Junk... I collect junk (or, more precisely: Stuff I may be able to use sometime).

Money... I'm not really good at it, but I try.

I haven't looked at guiness in quite some time, but I remember it being somewhere around the twenty leaf mark. I think I may have one of the largest number of them in the world though.

1:18 Scale Diecast cars, currently at 140 or so.

I also just got into aquariums. I have about 20 or so different types of freshwater fish.

Tom Swift books is my biggest collection of anything...tho its been awhile since I've found a new one, so now I'm just collected dust.

I used to collect porcellain dolls, but most of them are put away now.

Now... Now I collect time on message boards. I am on 3 regularly, and it's quite saddening that it's all I do really.
