Collecting?

I am wondering what you tort lovers like to collect? I am 17 and have some pretty odd hobbies that my friends make fun of me for I love to collect 35mm and 120mm cameras. I also like to collect coins and old lighters from early 1900's.

What do you like to collect as a hobby?

Anything Harry Potter, Pokemon! pikachu mainly. Role playing books... World of Darkness... ;-) sulcata and feeding torts is my hobby

I collect tortoises made of wood, resin, stone, pewter, etc. (yeah, I know...AMAZING!!!), dragons (same) and specific Happy Meals toys.

And I'm not ashamed!

Terry Allan, I honor your ability to be loud and proud!
I collect old coins, as well as money from different parts of the world. But, my favorite collection is of my knifes...no, I am not a scary person! I don't have any of the strange shaped knifes. Just your average flip out, pocket knife, or knife in a sheath.

I share an interest with you, Blake; I too, collect old coins and monies from around the world. I also collect hot air balloon pins (a popular thing to collect when you live in Albuquerque). And I also collect minerals, gems, and fossils.

Salt n pepper shakers, although not intentionally.... I started with one set of vw beetle ones, then someone saw them and gave me a cow set... Now I have around 12 but I have never actually bought any? I'm not even really that keen on them... It's just gone a bit too far now for me to say I don't actually like them to people haha

I love collecting things, I have no idea why. I have a lot of antique stores around and I collect things I see. Such as Old keys from the 1800's, Cameras, Maps, Old Lighters, Coins, All sorts of things

Neat everybody! I collect cacti and succulents, fossils, antique nature or science books, old Godzilla and movie monsters, and I have a life list of reptiles and amphibians species pics I have taken around the world.

I collect nfl game jerseys and autographed game balls getting into coins ,anyone have a walking liberty half dollar ,,since we talking about collecting ,i'll trade a bret favre singed game ball with psa/dna and his coa to for a few coins ,,,

I have a couple thousand invested in coins not a good sign!

I collect rocks,but just add them to my yard, turlte and tortoise statues and wine stoppers , I only have two so far. I really try not to collect things.

Im a big sports guy so I have jerseys, balls, bats, shoes and other sports memorabilia.

I have a large skull collection. I also collect knives. Over the years ,I've amassed quite a collection of bad habits also.

I collect the little dinosaurs from Safari, LTD. (Carnegie Collection, Wild Safari, etc.). I'm a dino-nut, and I can get pretty anal about dinosaur figurines that are anatomically correct! Those are relatively cheap, intricately modeled, ornately painted, and so many left to add to the shelf!

I've collected a lot of things over the years. I'm a geek at heart though, my biggest collections are sci-fi books (well books in general but mostly sci-fi lol), table top gaming miniatures (mechwarrior, warmachine etc...), magic the gathering cards (not as much recently but I've got a TON of them), and animals!

If I have more than two of something, its a "collection!!"

Mainly I collect books, coins, stamps, cactus, dolls, Jim Beam bottles (the old telephone ones) and I have a GREAT collection of old used lumber.

My husband would say I collect shoes and clothes , but I have a few different collections. I collect non christmasy penguins for my family room. I collect antique chickens for my kitchen. I have just started collecting tortoises for my living room. I have a room that I decorated all in antiques so I collect cool antiques for that room.
My biggest collection though is my holiday decorations. I collect christmas stuff and hanukkah decorations. By the end of November my house looks like Christmas and Hanukkah puked in every room. I have at least one tree in every room. I love the holidays. Last year we even had a festivus pole.
My husband collects sports memorabilia so he has a hoard of that in the room I call his man hole.. He hates that and says it's his man cave.

I collect unique/limited edition whiskey and beer bottles, as well as shot glasses. All of my friends get me shot glasses when they travel and I travel quite a bit for work, so I'd venture to say I have around 120 shot glasses in total. My girlfriend collects magnets, which cover the entire front of our fridge, and growing constantly!

I love this thread!!!! I collect rocks, lots of rocks, fossils, house plants, old-style piggy banks (the kind without a hole at the bottom, you gotta crack em open), dinosaur stuff, alot of shells, fabrics for my business, anything with a mushroom on it, and Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin art/memorabilia, funky ashtrays (even though I don't smoke), and of course anything with a turtle or tort on it! :-D

Very cool collections!
