What else do you collect?

[firestar0629]

I'm a serious Harry Potter collector! I especially love the old stuff, pre-2003 and before the films got popular and changed Harry's and many others' designs. The "vintage" Enesco branded stuff is my favourite <3

I find that I tend to collect characters more than franchises, lol. I collect Sailor Jupiter and James (Pokemon) and even my HP collection is heavily centred on Snape (and Slytherin house)!

I collect books and I especially love the Barnes and Noble leatherbound classics line.

I also casually collect Breyer, I really love them but they're just so expensive it'd be cheaper to buy a real horse, I sometimes think!! I always feel a little left out of the Breyer collector's community because all I can afford are antique store castoffs/used horses, so my collection isn't that great and I don't feel like I can really call myself a Breyer collector, lol.

I do have a few other collections, as most of us seem to!

I collect a few specifics American Girl characters, and I have recently decided to collect delphite dishes.  These are like Jadeite, if you have heard of that, only delphite is a lovely blue color.  It's going to be slow going, however, as those items can get pretty expensive!

Here we goooo....

Besides MLP, there's a bunch of things:

Sailor Moon stuff, I'm not as fond of some of the newer crystal merch stuff, their faces are too different, but I love the manga and the original animation styles. I have all of the main manga series, the old Dic/Clover dubs on DVD (I let go of my legit ones for pirated copies to save space) and am collecting the new releases when budgets allow, even crystal. My planner even has a moon stick charm - I'm obsessed!

Care Bears - again not terribly fond of the new, less pudgy styling. I collect mostly vintage plush, but a few ringers from the early 00's have snuck in, as well as the vintage books, and the DVD sets of the original cartoons, I'm literally just getting started with the DVDs, I have 1 I found at thrift the other day!

Agatha Christie Books. I have at least one version of all the main books, just missing a few plays and short story collections. Am trying to get the earliest copies I can of each book in standalone format, it's proving tough!

Horsey children's books, which isn't an active collection, I just pick them up if they're an absolute bargain, to complement my childhood collection.

Model horses, again much like the book collection, I only do absolutely gorgeous stuff, or bargain basement. I'm obsessed with draft breeds, if money or space were no object, I'd grab all the draft models I could! I have Breyers, Grand Champions, Schliech, CollectA, etc...

Fakies! I love some of the vintage ones, like Simbas and Buddy L's.

CDs. I have hundreds of CDs, I'm paranoid about losing my music collection, so it's all on disc!

I know it's kind of MLP, but the G3 5-Mile-Press colouring books that were sold here in Australia. Every time I think I've got them all, another different one turns up in those discounted old-stock bookstores that crop up everywhere. I have all my colouring books in a binder, but I swear, the G3 ones are taking up so much space, I'm going to have to get a new folder just for them soon, but I can't resist, the covers are beautiful. I have so many that I keep photos on my phone for reference so I don't buy the same ones over!

I'm wanting to start collecting Care Bears, although I'm struggling with space issues. I'm already having to find creative ways to display my ponies!

I do have a somewhat impressive collection of Webkinz, though

[Carebearnmbr46]

Care Bears (but only the vintage plush toys); antique covered dishes (usually the ones with an animal on the lid); pretty or interesting antique books; a bit of Pyrex; some McCoy pottery; rocks and minerals; and some seashells.

Dragon stuff
Trading Cards, I play Pokemon and Cipher

I don't know if a library of art and design references can count as a collection even if it's massive lololol

G1 MLP
My Pretty Mermaid

I have all my Barbies in storage boxes (Barbie and her sisters 90s in one box, Barbie friends 90s in one box, Stacie and Skippers friends along with my AA version of Stacie 90s in another box) the modern ones are in a separate box with all the accessories.

I collect so much stuff!  I generally have 1-2 major collections, and an unlimited number of minor ones going at any given time.  Ponies have been a major collection for a solid 20+ years, and the secondary major collection has shifted a bit from time to time.  The rest of my collections tend to be active in spurts, some more frequent than others.

I collect:
Doctor Who
David Tennant items(a subset of the Doctor Who collection that turned into its own collection)
Loch Ness Monster stuff
Squished pennies
Dollhouse miniatures
Several other lines of small/miniature figures and items
Stickers - vintage and modern
Magnets
Bad movies(like Sharknado)
Vintage video games
Stuffed animals(despite my attempts to quit)
Steiff - another subset of a collection that became its own thing
Salt and pepper shakers(not too active)
Jackalope items
Rabbit/owl/hedgehog items
Fossils/interesting rocks and minerals
Christmas ornaments from places I visit
Miniature glass animals
Magic the Gathering cards
Star Trek(it's back on the active list after almost 20 years off!)
Weird things from the roadside attractions I visit
Dinosaur items
Postcards from places I visit

I'm sure there's more, but it's hard to remember everything I collect.  I like to joke that I collect collections:p

[Mewtwofan1]

I collect (besides mlp)
Pokemon cards/merchandise
Video game merch (extra points if minecraft or portal related)
Smushed pennies
Rocks (Pie family approved of course)
Plushies
Lego (just to play with my sisters and have awesome stories)
Bits of lint I find (when sleep deprived. Often)
Teeny tiny miniatures (blame gran for that one)
Newspaper articles about interesting stuff like SPAAACE, cons or anything else on my grey matter

I really want to make a magic school bus collection. Sadly, the ponies have taken the monies. I want to have all the books, the science sets, DVD or video of every episode ever, new merch with this reboot coming soon, and the Liz puppet and ms frizzle doll. I was surprised when I learnt they made a ms frizzle doll. She even comes with her food themed dress! And they made a hallmark Christmas ornament. I already have a ms frizzle cosplay in my closet, so that's a start. I wish to have a magic school bus cupboard filled with these and related stuff. Like a custom magic school bus mlp!
