What ELSE do you collect?

Single Malt Whiskies but i collect and then open them to share.
Also Rock n Roll memorabilia (Beatles, Motley Crue, Kiss, Oasis, the Darkness) and Scottish Football memorabilia (Panini stickers, programs, jerseys etc.

However my autographed goalie 8x10's are probably my largest collection outside of cards-all 60 or so are displayed in my Basement bar. Most are inscribed with a noted stat or trophy mention or personalized. Kirk McLean signed his "Captain" Kirk McLean as an example.
 
I collect auto jerseys a few game worn jersey.
I also ended up collecting some expensive rums and Canadian Rye Whiskies.
Some of the highlights of my Canadian whiskies is 4 bottles of the 150th anniversary Canadian Club 30 year old , 4 bottles of Calgary Stampede (Commemorative) 25 Year Old Whisky. Those two whiskies got some of the highest ratings for a Canadian whisky but due to their limited editions usually not considered eligible for the yearly awards. 12 bottles of Crown Royal Cask No 16 (sadly discontinued but heaven in a bottle) , 2 bottles of Wisers Red Letter 150th anniversary. I tried several bottles of other years of Red Letter and is awesome the extra kick from 90 proof is nice.
Although i have not tried i assume trading partners would be hard to find.
 
I have started to collect Signed jerseys. Only 2 signed at the moment. I have a bunch of signed numbers that I will eventually have put on jerseys, maybe 10 other players I think.
I got this one last year, framed and matted it myself (I guess you can say thats another hobby)

Just got back the Roy Habs jersey from frozen pond private signing that will be next to this one soon. Got the frame for it already, just waiting for my holidays to frame it up.

Also, I do TTM autos. Mostly hockey but some others.

Couple hockey ones i received. I have a crap load more, but just examples.

Aside from that. I collect Quarters. Just the special release ones like for Remembrance Day.
I have a small collection of replica goalie masks.
 
Howdy folks

I dont post here that often anymore. I still lurk though(boy some recent threads have been entertaining) and chat with a few guys though... But i have moved my collecting over to vinyl records. With a correct set up they sound amazing. Makes me never want to listen to crappy MP3 again
 
My other collections include:
- Amiibo figures
- Star Wars novels (132/153 in the Legends timeline), comics, and Lego
- Nintendo merch
- Funko Pop! Vinyls. Specifically Star Wars, and have started to delve into other series such as Futurama, Harry Potter, Mass Effect, The Matrix, and Peanuts. Just waiting on the BioShock ones to release, as well as the Star Wars: The Force Awakens set next week.

My friends have taken to dubbing my apartment "The Museum" because everytime they visit, there's a lot to look at, and always something new.



And just to give an idea of the Star Wars portion of the Pops:

When you enter my hallway from the front door, this is the side that greets you.

And when you stand in front of the shelf:

I actually also collect sneakers - specifically Nike and Jordan Brand......lately have taken a big step back and thinking of selling the collection - hovering around 35-40 pairs at the moment - might get rid of most and keep 3-5
 
I collect Red Wings game used sticks, Wheat Pennies (1909-1958), and empty liquor bottles... which is odd as they're full when I buy them :crazy:.
 
Nirvana first pressing or rare color variation vinyl. Also silver and gold bullion, mainly Canada and Australia .9999 coins and bars. I really like the RCM 10oz silver bars, it's odd here in the states that most value the .999 American Eagles or bars, but for me there's better value in the RCM .9999 or .99999 Maples and gold coins/bars.
 
I used to buy a ton of records and was seriously into collecting rare mono versions and stuff like that before my daughter was born, but now I don't seem to have the time to put into it anymore. Sadly most of these have been sitting in the basement unplayed for years.

My best,

ken

 
mcfarlanes......360 and counting
I collect cards with my two boys, my daughter is only 1 year old but I foresee a barbie collection down the road
 
I collect jersey's, bobbleheads and autographed pictures... My jersey collection consists of 97 game worn jersey's, 12 signed jersey's (mostly from frameworth), and around 300 replica/authentic jerseys (mostly Pens jerseys)

My autograph collection is based around Pittsburgh Penguins, goalies and team Canada. I have around 200 signed pictures, all from frozen pond, frameworth, Steiner and AJ's. I'm really picky and only pickup stuff from those companies.

The bobblehead collection is all Pittsburgh Penguins bobbleheads. I have 50 so far, but haven't picked up a new one in well over a year due to the price of shipping from the States

I guess I forgot that I collect hockey DVDs. I've got most NHL DVDs that have been released and the majority of the hockey Canada DVDs. I have a home gym so nothing better then putting in a classic hockey game and getting a good workout in while I watch it.

I have a lot of jerseys. I buy jerseys, and then make it my goal to get them signed myself.

My two best ones are the (arguably) two greatest goalies of all time - Patrick Roy & Martin Brodeur

I also have some McFarlanes, and collect IP autos for myself
 
My other collections include:
- Amiibo figures

Glad someone else has the sickness, we keep saying we're done after the Smash set is over, but if they ever do a legit Fire Emblem, Metroid or full on Pokemon set, I might have to sell a kidney.

My GF's gaming room looks pretty cool though

I'll add mine:

MAD magazines, paperbacks and hardback books. I have them all since 1956 when it switched from a comic book to a magazine.

Books about WWII European Theater.

Anything with Penn State on it as well as complete games on DVD and media guides since 1965.

Some coins, especially US Silver Eagles (may be the nicest coin ever made).

Dilbert stuff.

My wife thinks that is enough along with the 227,000 sports cards.
 
I guess I collect WWE DVDs but I don't buy them to "collect" per se, I buy the stuff I like and stuff I kind of like if it's cheap enough. Mostly the documentaries and match complications, I usually stay away from PPVs.
