I don't have pictures of it, but besides anime and manga, I collect erasers. I've been collecting them since I was in the second grade; I actually still have the first one I ever owned, a pink cat with the tail missing on it. :)

Once I find the box all of them are in, I'll take and post pictures.

Nendoroids and Manga ^.^;;; I had almost 1,000 (manga) before I started selling them. I don't think I could sell my Nendoroids. Too much cuteness to give away!

I also have dolls, and various odds and ends items and Plushies! If I ever get around to organizing my book shelves I will take pictures! I think I need more book shelves though..... since I have lots of books too. lol

I use to be big into card games, but mix of collecting and playing. I had Pokemon (up to 3rd series of the Gold/silver stuff), Digimon (mainly collected a few), Yu-Gi-Oh (stopped around D-hero set), Duel Masters (bought cheap boxes), Yu Yu Hakusho (played very little, but bought booster boxes cheap), and One Piece (played little, but bought way too many booster boxes, and even got a Japanese booster box for fun).

I use to play Pokemon at Toys R Us stores when they had a Pokemon Card League thing. Then I went into Yu-Gi-Oh playing at Toys R Us Deulist League. After that I continued playing Yu-gi-oh at a comic store by me. It was really casual play though, and I ended up getting many people playing Yu Yu Hakusho, and One Piece. It ended up being more go to socialize than play Yu-Gi-Oh

When I get a chance, I will probably post updated pictures :D

Once I finally move and get to sorting the storage rental (yup), I'll try to see if I can get one big, massive pic. It's not going to be the biggest (I think), but it should be pretty large in area. The DVDs/VHS/BluRays are gonna take a ton of space.

To give you an idea of what's coming, a number of my DVDs are in storage, as well as all VHS.

I'm a pretty huge collector. PVC figures are my main vice, but I also collect trading figures, miscellaneous small merchandise (especially phone charms), and doujinshi as far as anime-related things go. I suppose you could also say I collect anime and manga itself, but I don't really see it as a collection in the same sense.

For non-anime/manga things, I also collect foxes. Plush foxes, fox statues, etc. National flags, too, though that's a small collection so far. I have a large German flag, small German, Hungarian, Austrian, Romanian, and Ukrainian flags, and an Austrian flag about the size of those cheap plastic American flag they give out on Memorial Day. I have some other countries that I want, Liechtenstein in particular, and I'd <i>kill</i> for an Austro-Hungarian Dual Monarchy flag, and some other defunct nations as well.

I've also started collecting My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic toys.

This is as close to a 'collection' as I can come. Please ignore the grainy picture & disorganization.

I collect K-Pop CDs if that counts.

I also have a few ball-jointed dolls, have quite a bit of manga (which I don't really add to anymore), and have a decent sized DVD and Blu-Ray collection.

I need less expensive hobbies. I'm really hooked on Figma Black Rock Shooter stuff at the moment. $50+ a figure :/ I don't even do anything with them for more than 5 minutes. Pretty much open, get in good pose, into display case it goes! Freaking Black Rock Shooter Beast shipping price :(

My main collection is keychains. I have tons of keychains, both anime and non. For just anime, I like to collect anime themed card decks :3 And I prefer owning manga to reading it online, so I have over 300 ^^ Other than that, random crap that catches my eye.

I have looked at those, and might get those in the future. Sadly all the ones I see under $70 on ebay are all knock offs :( Luckily Acen doesn't allow knock offs (last I checked...), so might see if I can find them there.

Just because they don't allow it doesn't mean they aren't there :( I definitely saw some bootlegs at various stalls last year.

Yeah, I know I saw a few knockoff Mario figures and some other things. Luckily all the things I have bought at Acen were real. I got lucky last Acen and got a Figma Dead Master and Black Gold Saw for under $50 each. Although I think at the time there weren't any knock offs yet :/ I also just saw on ebay that opened Black Gold Saws are going for over $100!

I also did preorder BRS Anime version :D Also love the hood, and keeping her hooded. I have been pre-ordering all the Figmas I want recently in order to guarantee I get it, and avoid all the knock offs later on :D Got Samus pre-ordered too! Also, if I remember right, the knock off of the first Figma BRS was out before the actual release for some reason, which is kind of funny

For BRS Beast, I preordered because I didn't know how much shipping would be. I figured $65ish isn't bad. Too bad shipping was another $60ish :/ The cheapest I have seen Black Rock Shooter Beast for so far is about $70 for just the figure and not including the artbook, which I don't think is too bad. I myself am looking to get a Figma White Rock Shooter at Acen, or if I don't find one there, get one off ebay or something :D Really want Insane BRS too, but not for $300 :(

Yeeeaaaah, as a figure collector, I'll tell you right now that if you see a static scale figure like that for under $70, it's probably a bootleg. The exception being older figures from like Kotobukiya or another middle of the road company that aren't for super popular shows/characters (I got a Kotobukiya figure of a Comic Party character for like $30 once, for example), or if it's by one of the lower end figure companies like WAVE or Clayz. The Black Rock Shooter figures are all by Good Smile Company, which is one of the two major high end figure companies known for stellar quality (the other is Alter). All of the BRS figs are highly regarded as gorgeous works of art and are generally popular figures. So you're not going to see a legit one for under $70. Even that's pretty low.

/figure collector geekery here

I hear you re; how pricey it is. Personally I'm jealous of people who prefer nendoroids and figma. I can't stand figma, I think the joints are just too ugly, so I only collect static figures and nendos, but mostly statics. So I'm always dropping at least $70 + shipping. Sob.

Lol, I like my figures to have articulation even if they're mostly for display. I have recently started buying some PVC figures, and might end up picking more of those up. Shame that all the PVC figures I'm interested in are over $80 though :/ Also they take up more space, but love the details on the some of the PVC I'm interested in. I have been hooked on Figmas mostly due to the numerous accessories they come with as well as stand. I actually got into Black Rock Shooter due to collecting the Figmas and didn't even know anything about where the character even came from.

I actually didn't even know what a volcaloid was until I did some research after seeing how awesome the Figma BRS looked :D Funny thing is that I also only got into Figmas due to wanting some cool Haruhi Suimiya figures. Then I started going to a thread on a message board discussing Figmas, and started seeing pictures of all the cool stuff they had :D

It's not really nerdy or anime related but I collect scarves.
But I'm starting to collect more comics.Western comics (DC, Marvel, Dark Horse, Vertigo...) and graphic novels.
It's a blossoming thing. Even though I've been into comics for a while and have read a ridiculous amount, I've never really had the desire to dump my money into owning them until recently.

I started reading more comics recently, but don't own any outside of some Dreamwave Transformers stuff from some years back. My library though has a huge selection of managa and comic graphic novels, so i have read quite a few things throughout the years. Outside of the Rurouni Kenshin series, and the Haruhi novels, I'm not sure what other books, comics, or manga I have bought :/

I'll be moving sometime in June into an apartment to call my own. Sometime after that move I hope to gain some new shelving units and to get everything up on shelves.

And my walls, my walls will be covered in wall scrolls, I've got like 20+ wall scrolls from multiple series and I keep buying more. I may have a scroll addiction.

I mostly collect Dvd's, Manga, Plushes, Wall scrolls and Figures. My figure collection does include nendoroids which is a slowly growing collection that started with Nendoroid Saber and Nendoroid Shiki.

I also have 10 Asuka figures ranging in size and style... I love me some Asuka <3

Can't wait to get this stuff up and get pictures posted!
