I travel a lot. Wherever I go, I buy keychains. I had a board made to store them on, but I'm pretty much out of room for them now. See if I can't go grab a picture...

Ironically, I don't really have any keys to pair them all with.

EDIT: Now that I've had to organize all my keychains to get them back on the board, I've found a lot more room for new keychains. Only one solution to this problem!

i have a collection of figurines, although it's not that many compared to some P:
i also "collect" stickers i guess, i just stick ones i find on my old 90s tv

o:! We have the exact same monitors. I wish I had a cute little enclosed area like that, instead my computer is wedged into a corner, so my shelves are to my left and right instead of in front of me.

I want that little Spyro figurine. :<
 
I always wanted to collect some stupid inane thing but I can't think of anything good. Any suggestions?

Hmm...I can't really think of anything really insane, but possibly bottlecaps? o3o Tickets? Rocks? There's even Pokemon cards.

Speaking of Pokemon, maybe you could collect your favorite Pokemon in one of your Pokemon Games? Pfft. No, I don't have a collection of Charmanders in my games...

No, no, inane. That's different from insane. Inane would be, like... Ke$ha's music.

You could collect, like... coins, or stamps, or pencils or something.

Oh, I thought he forgot the "s". I completely forgot about that word, seeing as I don't use it much. XD Anyways, thanks for the correction.
 
I would collect something but I hate spending money wantonly (except on video games) and have nowhere to put anything very space-consuming. Though I bought a pack of Pokémon cards a while ago on a completely random whim and the top card was a Meowth. This may be a sign.
 
Have a picture of my manga.

Have you ever considered collecting money? :P

Pokemon cards are a good idea, once i got a shiny deoxys, and i sold it for 34.99, and once I got the money i bot a whole new deck. :grin:
 
Warhammer models mostly, started when I was 16. Most of my collection comes from Birthday and Christmas presents, and I always get a whole bunch of them, so it's a pretty big collection now. I like the feral, monster ones like Tyranids and Skaven. Space marine ones don't really interest me much.

I collect dragon figurines too, but it's nothing compared to what others have posted here. They're mostly cheapish toys I randomly find in my local store, and I have a couple of dragon fish tank ornaments. It's a small collection, but I'm fond of it.
There's also the halloween decorations I have hanging about all year round. Just sorta smallish things like rubber rats and tiny, glow in the dark bats.

And.... I have a slight obsession with cartoon shows I am apparently too old for, so I have a slowly growing collection of Ben 10 action figures. I see them constantly at my local store, just staring.... I couldn't resist... ;-; Typically, they never seem to have Ripjaws in stock. I'm always on the lookout for him.

Do they get pissed about people not returning those :o?

No, actually, the don't. You see, My dad gets two keycards, and I always keep one. I guess they deactivate them after you leave. I've only been to two hotels in which I couldn't keep a keycard: one was in Maine, and you were given a real key, and the other was in Bloomington,IN and I had to return it because it was part of a school trip.
 
I made it to travel to all the state parks here in MN, and I collect state park pins, as well as stones from each park.
 
stuff with fairys on it, cell phone charms, (the ones on my phone counter-weight my phone, and have spread onto my nintendo.) pokemon stuff, ANYTHING anime, and japanese stuff. i also love books, lots of classic books.
