I collect the skulls of my defeated enemies.

Seriously though, I collect beer glasses...Have quite a large collection from fairly rare things to what you'd get at a local pub.

And I have an ever growing collection of new and used bike tyres.

WOW, I had no idea this thread existed, some really cool collections here and some bloody funny ones too... compliments and punches...

I've collected a few things over the years but the one that got really out of hand is my replica and genuine movie prop and costume collection.

Cheers,

Kraig

I have started a Street Machine Magazine Collection. I use to get the odd one here and there but I wanted to have complete sets.

I have complete sets from 1982/83 (first ones when it was Van Wheels) up to 1998. From 1998 onwards I am missing some months....I will find them eventually

Recently went through boxes of old toys my boys had growing up. "Monsters in my Pocket" are now worth a small fortune!!

I collect calories, and so far my collection is going pretty well. I get to take them with me wherever I go, and only need to lift my shirt to see how my collection is progressing

My dad has a heap of Street Machine magazines from the 80s, and early 90s. I like flipping through them seeing how different the car scene is today compared to those days.

I went to Summernats in 1990, but I was only 4, so these old magazines are really the only thing to give me insight to how people used to modify their cars.

There are some things I collect I refuse to disclose, however I did used to collect Sega Consoles & games. At one stage I owned 1 of every console they made. I do still have a Sonic The Hedgehog poster that came bundled with my Megadrive II back in 1994. Other than that, my fleet of Fords is growing, much to the land owners disliking hehehe.
