I timidly collect records. My most prized is a copy of White Light/White Heat first pressing, listened to, but with the shrink wrap and sticker still on. Not worth a ton, but it means a lot to me.

I like reading, though I don't have a lot of time for it right now, so I'd say books are something I collect.

I have most of the Star Wars Lego's. They're pretty damn cool looking.

I wish I could say I collected guitars.

I play a lot of computer games, so I guess I could say I collect them.

"I collect spores, molds, and fungus."
Seriously:
I collect Star Wars toys, around 1,500 SW collectibles. Also collect other toys, like movie-related toys (Movie Maniacs, Reservoir Dogs, LOTR, etc.) I love da toys!

Used to collect:

Comic books - I ended up buying too many every month and finally decided to spend it elsewhere. Good thing too, because I have a hard enough time saving up for all the HT toys I want. Now if I won the lottery, I think I'd be buying again.

Still collect:

Books, mostly fiction - I read alot and buy my books so my book collection gets bigger and bigger, although I weed out the bad books I've read every once in a while.

I don't consider them home-theater related (since I started collecting well before the advent of home theaters), but my main collectible is movie memorabilia; specifically, movie posters, lobby cards and the like. I've also been known to collect books and magazines.

[Brett Hancock]

My favorite collection of all. The Simpsons. I currently have all of the action figures, board games, and alot of other merchandise that I love. It sure is expensive to have this and a DVD collection though. Perhaps its time to pursue another job besides washing dishes.

Any "Magic" Hallmark ornament. Especially the Star Trek and Star Wars related ones.
