I collect ninja weapons.

I collect refrigerator magnets; i have hundreds... And i don't place them on the fridge. I also collect tea cups

I collect Day of the Dead items, and hippos. Yeah, kind of a strange combination.

Christmas ornaments from any place I visit. Once a year, I get to pull out the memories to enjoy.

I used to collect coins till I couldn't work anymore and cashed them in...lol

currently I'm into collecting statues of mythological gods,creatures,etc.
here is the link to photos of my collection:

When I was into photogrsaphy and had my own darkroom, I collected antique glassware, such as beekers, pitchers, measuraing cups and bottles. And for awhile I collected antique tinware. But nost of all that is gone now, except for a few of my favorites.

I collect tumbled semi-precious minerals and gemstones. I just think they're cool and beautiful. I don't think they have healing powers or anything like that .

I got a bunch of remote controls from different cable and satellite companies.

also have some switchblades (bout 100) and leather blackjacks and saps.

I collect pinup items. New and Vintage photos, playing cards, matchbooks, calendars. They look great in my bedroom and bath.

I have a collection of science fiction pocket books that my Mother started back in the 40's. It has the first edition of every sci-fi pocket book printed in the USA from then and before too around the late 80's or so. All in protective glassine envelopes, each with it's own file card, and all in specially made cases in alphabetical order. I have been collecting my entire (72 yrs.) life and now have somewhere in the neighborhood of 2500 books. I also collect blacksmithing tools. Hammers, tongs, anvils, vises, etc. Got any?

I have a fine collection of whips.

Bullwhips. Snake whips. Shot-snake whips. Signal whips. Australian stock whips. Australian yard whips. Florida cow whips. Driving whips.

Ranging from about 10 foot, down to less than 2 - the shorter ones being perfectly usable indoors (after all, you never know when you'll hear a strange lowing noise and find your living room full of cattle - must have happened to lots of people!)

Materials being horse hide, cow hide, kangaroo hide (kangaroo hide really is the VERY BEST whip leather), nylon, rubber tape, etc.

I have a large collection of novelty keyrings from everwhere I've been together with some from places friends and family have been.

I also have an impressive insect collection - on the front bumper of my car.

I also collect knives...used to have a huge collection, but lost it years ago....been starting a new one, but nothing too exotic....well, exotic, but just functional replicas....

hobbies: MMA (which was going to be my profession, but I got old...so now it is an occasionally exhausting hobby), steel work.

I collected TV guides from 1963 until around 2000 when they went to the large format. I only collected the fall preview guide and special edition guides. I had a TV guide route as a child and that's what got me into it. I hope to sell them on ebay soon. Time to purge some of my collections.
