I haven't really collected anything for a while. I recently got back into comics (a little bit; collected them as a child) and baseball cards. Nothing too exciting on the collecting front, unless you count the toys I collect (in order to get the entire set) for my son (10 month old). Thats an adventure in it self.

Hobbies are my family (married w/ 1 kid) and videogames/movies. And the occasional going out with friends, hard with a family.

It's hard when you have no friends to hang out with cause they all live up in Jersey still. But I love the Florida weather at least. :D

Thats gotta be tough. Most of my friends are still around town, so its not too shabby. All I gotta do to see them is go to a few bars, and I'm bound to run into them.

Yeah, that would be tough. Especially being so far away from your old friends. At least they can visit at some point....LOL

Whats a Reef Tank?

Whats a Reef Tank?

A saltwater aquarium with lots of corals or invertabrets. Not so many fish. Costs tons of money, needless to say my wife was happy when I got out of that hobby. I do miss it thogh. Will probably start again when I have more time.

Cool. Is it more so about getting them to grow, or cultivating the overall scenery?

yeah getting them to grow. I was into propagation. Growing them, then cutting them up into smaller corals, then growing the smaller ones into bigg ones, then doing it all over again...selling some in the process to to help support the hobby. As I said before , my wife, loved the tank, hated how much it costs. So anything I could do to help reduce out of pocket costs. :D

Nice car! Well, I love collecting baseball caps of different colors, style and brands. Most of the time, when I buy a cap I don't really use it. I just keep them hanging on the wall with my other baseball caps.:D

nothing really...

I collect good music in my iPod xD, it's expensive to collect something, especially here in Mexico, I mean, a Mighty Mugg is 200 pesos!!! which would be around 20 dlls

I mainly collect music being a dj. Since the advent of CD mixing this has become a lot cheaper as tunes are about £1.50 ($3) each as opposed to £8 ($16) a vinyl. I must have 1000's. I keep running out of hardrives to store them and losing cd wallets though!

I also collect tranformers. Had loads as a kid but my mum sold them all at a car boot sell whilst I was at university for 50pence each! It included a boxed omega supreme and a complete devestator! Gutted as they go for big bucks now though I doubt I would sell them.

I only buy the Classics line as its expensive and im not a fan of many new transformers espicially the movie and animated ones. I also have quite a few Worlds Smallest Transformers which are tiny versions of the normal ones.

I also have quite a few potato heads my favourite being R2 Potatoo!

Have just started collecting Kidrobot Simpsons figures too, Got Lisa and Scratchy so far so looking forward to getting some more.

The only Muggs I have are Star Wars ones so gonna start on some Marvel ones soon as there are no more Star Wars ones I like left.

Reading that back I seem to collect quite a lot of stuff...

Haha yea I hear ya man... I've got 5 long boxes stuffed with comics... from the early 90's through early 2000.

I'm sure I've got some winners in there. Every once ina blue moon I like to dig through them and just take a look at what I have.

I've also got 4 big boxes of toys that are still in their original packaging that is currently being stored down at my dads place in FL.

I will ahve to get that at some point and bring it back up to NYC

I just checked ebay...


eBay Link (http://cgi.ebay.com/Disney-Exclusive-Mr-Potato-Head-Spudda-Fett-Star-Wars_W0QQitemZ120305293906QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item 120305293906&_trkparms=72%3A1017%7C39%3A1%7C66%3A3%7C65%3A12%7C 240%3A1318&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14)


The shipping is expensive! I wonder how much that Spudda Fett really costs. I've seen them at the Star Wars shop, but never checked the price. Guess I can drive the 20 mins to Diz and pick one up. LOL! I've been told that they also sell muggs, but they were like $20+ so I never bothered.

If you really want these, I can get some... but I don't know the price or if shipping is going to be the same as the person offered on eBay. :/

I Collect comics. More Comics. And Lots more comics. I'm sure a lot of people do. But I'm really proud of myself I've built up my entire Marvel collection over just this summer. I show no signs of slowing down. I'm hooked for life...just like i am on MUGGS!

I have a rapidly growing obsession with customizing toys - it started when a friend of mine showed me the Kidrobot Munnys, and then I found Mighty Muggs and Hasbro fulfilled my wishes and started selling blank ones, and then I found out that you can buy blank Russian dolls...so yeah.

I guess you could say I collect crafts? I'm always making random stuff. I like to keep myself busy.
