What other things do you collect apart of videogames?
Mick Dundee:
I don't really collect anything other than Games....kinda movies i guess. DVD & Blu-Ray. Other than that...no room or cash for another collection type.

I collect...Sonic items! It's not a huge collection, though. I mostly have the comics and some toys along with the newer games (since I sold my Genesis years ago. Sad day for me...).
For the comic, I have approx #54-#224 of the main series. I am missing a couple in the 70-80 numbers. I also have #1-13 of Sonic X and #1-25 of Sonic Universe.
Here's an old picture. I've bought a few more toys and comics and games since then.
Let's see...I also have a bunch of Nintendo Power magazines. Issues #150-264. I have a whole bunch of e-Reader cards. Uh...Pokemon cards I have a lot of. I have many collections. They take so much of my money...

I have a relatively small (25-30) CD collection I started last summer. Ever since I started driving I bought CD's because I didn't have a radio transmitter til recently. I also feel the need to pay back all the artists I've "borrowed" music from. ::)
As a kid I used to buy Electronic Gaming Monthly every single month at newstand. I did this for about 3-4 years and for some reason never bought a subscription... I also have a hefty stack of GameInformers from a few years of GameStop subscriptions. Now I have the internet ::)
Edit: Almost forgot about my sizable collection of comic books (200-400). Got a huge stack of em one day as a kid when some guy at the car dealership saw I was wearing a Spider-Man shirt. It was a tad expensive to keep up with, so eventually I stopped.

Like many, I too collect DVDs and CDs, though I have recently slashed said collection and am now only keeping/buying the movies and albums I find impossible to part with.
Other than that I collect Fraggle Rock and Muppet things, most notably plush dolls and PVC figures. And honestly, my favorite thing to collect is books, particularly romance novels from the early 1900s (basically anything before 1960). I don't get too picky about condition of them like some book collectors. I do look for original dust jackets and good spines, but I actually prefer them to have some signs of being owned and read before me.
Arseen:
Well you could say I collect DVDs too, have ~800.
Not really collecting, they have just accumulated over the years.
