i collect sugar packets, my very favourite is an orange one with cows jumping over the moon on. i gained this one in a debenhams in cyprus. i know very little about this form of collection. Unlike collecting stamps i do not think there are rules about how you stick them down.

i collect stamps. i love soaking the stamps in water and watching and letting them float. even a non collector should just collect about 20 or so stamps and just watch them. it is almost enough to make you want to collect stamps

For some time now I have been collecting toys and models from the 60s, I have Re-issues of all the old Universal Monster Models,they resurfaced around 1980 I beleive, Back in 63' I paid 98cents for one ,in 1980,$15. I also found The old Warriors of The World toy Soldiers by Marx on Ebay, Paid quite a bit for them, one cost me $24, in 1964 they went for 10cents a piece. Hey,I may be broke,BUT I'm Happy.

I bought my first 45rpm back in 1964, " Oh Pretty Woman" by Roy Orbison, and I collected records until around 1990. I have a large collection of 45s,and Lps. Alot of the 45s still have the original picture sleeves. ALL are in Great condition. I still listen to them( although not as often as I used to), I recently bought a USB Turntable,and I'v transfered ALL the rare cuts from the LPs,and all the rare 45s unto my computer,Now I have all the rare one's on CD. Because you really can't find alot of music from back in the day even on CD.Hell,you can't even find some of the old lps on cd, Now EVERYTHING I have on record is on CD.

Old model company that has been around for a long time and has stood the test of time. They are back with a vengeance now and are releasing new kits, two of which are unique to the model world; WWII 1/72 Japanese Submarines which are suitable for conversion to R/C and should be nice companion pieces to the Revell Gato and Type VII-C. While no longer state of the art in that their kits have dated over the years and the details of most of their kits are mediocre, they have a very wide variety of kits available and I am particularly fond of their ship kit range. Everything from sailing ships, to military to commercial vessels are represented. For uniqueness, Lindberg cannot be beat.

Without a doubt, this hobby relaxes me quite a bit. The finely detailed, intricate work and realism places me in a world of my own creation. This hobby teaches patience, woodworking, electricity, painting, modeling, and creativity. Having a passion for trains doesn't hurt either. I enjoy every minute of it!

i have alot of pens but i don't think i started by thinking i was going to collect them. its more from the fact that i can and will only use a certain type and usually the same brand as long as i can find it. so my collection comes from picking up a pen somewhere that i can't bring myself to use. its a sickness i know.
