I gather that most of us collect video games in some way on here. What other things do you collect? Toys? Baseball cards? Music? Toenail clippings? To get things rolling, here's a link to my Colexions.com profile. I'm pretty behind on updating it but it'll give you a general idea of the other sort of things I collect. colexions.com/?p=mypage&u=fistofthewind

I think a list of things I don't collect would be shorter, lol.
I collect all kinds of things, some girly, some not. My favorite things to collect are vintage toys from the 50's - 80's. Storage is such a huge problem for me, as I'm sure some of you have heard me complain in the past. I don't even care if toys are broken, I will find a way to fix them. The only problem that cannot be fixed is something called a fatal mold. You have to be very careful when you buy anything made of vinyl that may have mold, because mold will spread and destroy your goodies. So be sure to pick over flea market and especially eBay finds - anything with such a problem needs to be thrown away, period. There's a cleaner called Maine Pine that will clean basic molds that only appear in spots, but not fatal (black) molds. It's very easy to identify such problems. But that shouldn't be a problem if most of the toys you collect are hard plastic rather than rubber or vinyl. Anyway, I'll quit preaching about that, lol.
I also love vintage furniture, although I only have a few pieces like my telephone table that I really love, but it needs reupholstered. Whenever I get a bigger place, I'd love to get a fainting couch or two, I think those are pretty sweet. And also, those couches where the people have to sit facing each other, those are pretty cool.

It sounds like the fatal mold I discussed in a previous thread would be right up your alley then, Brandon! lol

Talking about collections, i have a decent collection of game related figures and plushes (pic later). One set of figures that has always interested me was the neca 8-bit figures. Now that im workin on my nes collections i might start getting into these. I can remember playing and enjoying games such as robocop, rambo, and predator. I came across all these over the weekend and thought i would pick them up later. They make figures for all these games and more so i think im gonna finally pick up these figures to pair with the games.

Ebay is the best place to hit up a meta knight plush, you can either snatch one for cheap from china or get one from california. From china its a 50% chance its gonna be a knock off but still look like the real thing. Sanei is the number one nintendo plush maker so if you want an official one look for that. If your interested in a king dedede plush i have one for sale.
