Toy Soldiers in 1/32 scale. I paint them, build dioramas, and add 1/32 vehicles. Mostly WW I/WWII/Korea. It's how I pass the time now I can't play Paintball anymore.
What else do people collect around here?

Lego Creator cars and motorcycles. I have specific requirements that they stay in a similar scale, which is about 1:20. In total, I have 14 sets.
And I guess you could say I collect instruments. I'm a musician so I don't really see it as a collection in comparison to others, but I have a nice selection of drum sets, cymbals, guitars and amps. As well as various other instruments.Comment

I collect decks of playing cards, it's a lot more fun when family and friends are travelling and I can get stuff from around the world.Comment

Where do I start...my collection depends on my mood I suppose.
My primary is real steel..WW2 and Blackpowder. Fur trade up to Revolutionary war has got my interest at the moment so collecting all the accoutrements to go along with it is a must.
I have a weakness for Western brand knives as well...the black beauty version mostly. Snowmobiles are in too, but the other 2 keep me pretty broke...not to mention my 4 tax write offs...2 boys and 2 girls

The only collectables I have around are sentimental or coins. Even the coins are an investment, really, so... nothing? I have a lot tools, but they see regular use. I have a toy vehicles, but they also see regular use. My home gym equipment is largely unused... I guess I collect gym equipment. hahaComment

I used to collect Chuck Taylor Converse. I have a set that I purchased in Germany, and a few other limited editions I have never seen anywhere else, but with Converse, unless you have all white or black they are pretty much all unique. Kind of like my paintball collection...Comment

I find myself collecting a variety of things. Some include electrical antiquities, US paper currency (star notes, radar notes, low serials, rare notes), toys from when I was young, old road signs, vintage electronics from the mid 90's to about 2001-2002ish, anything related to the second generation Ford Probe, vintage board games, and other antiques also.Comment

I've got a decent collection of older video games (NES, SNES, N64, & Sega Genesis). Thankfully I picked up a large portion of them back in the early 2000s when they were cheap as prices have gotten insane of some of them.Comment

I collect traditional Nepalese made Khukuri knives, or 'kukri'. I like big knives in general, and always liked the shape and cultural and military history behind these knives. If it wasn't for paintball I'd have god knows how many more! I also used to collect die cast WW2 Panzer tanks in various scales. I'm a big WW2 armor guy and grew up reading about all that stuff. Money was very tight when my wife was in nursing school and we had a toddler in day care, so all my tanks eventually got sold off, as well as alot of paintball stuff.Comment

I've been collecting and playing MtG for about 6 or 7 years now, and have a fairly large collection. Love collecting Legos like a few other members have mentioned, and as of this year I started to fall down the dice rabbit hole, which has ended with me buying some cool sets then going, "Hey, why don't I just make them myself?" I'm now about 40 d20s in and right on the cusp of getting some silicone so I can make a mold from my custom printed masters, which means more dice for the hoard! (And some to sell once I get there)Comment
