Re: Besides diecast aircraft, what else do you collect?

If you ask my wife.... dust


I've a pretty big accumulation of old, classic PC games and videogames... but I don't really collect anythign else. If I started to, I think that would be the straw... I've thought about diecast corvettes but there's that straw to worry about (and the camel's back).

Lets see,,, WWII and Cold War aircraft recognition material, Marklin HO trains, with the amount fishing gear I have you might even be able to add Fenwick fishing rods & Rapala fishing lures to the list as well.

Smile Re: Besides diecast aircraft, what else do you collect?

I have a few 1/18 scale Ferrari F1 cars, Porsche 911s and a couple of Ferrari road cars. 1/50 scale Caterpillar earth movers. Tanks, 1/72, 1/35 and 1/32. One or two Ducati motorcycles, 1/12 I think, can't remember. The first things I started collecting was the Matchbox Models of Yesteryear. All very small collections. When I started getting aircraft everything else ground to a halt.

Re: Besides diecast aircraft, what else do you collect?

Diecast aircraft and AFVs. I do some plastic model building to complete my collection needs. I did have some football jerseys as a small collection, but I got rid of those some time ago. I might get into books on the CBI/PTO theater. My grandfather had some for his own collection, but I will inherit them in the near future.

Books, guitars, sports memorabilia (mostly baseball and Kansas Jayhawks stuff), some militaria and military art and toy soldiers (I just got back into the TS game recently).

Re: Besides diecast aircraft, what else do you collect?

...Celebrity belly-button lint. I have a good lead right now on some of Jack Nicholson's..Wish me luck!

I used to collect diecast NASCAR cars, but now they are packed away. I don't 'do' NASCAR anymore..Maybe someday I will sell them for scrap as that's about all they'll ever be worth....

Ya been down that road to skunky and am off loading them as fast as I can, just packed away waiting for someone to come along and make me an offer. I collect warbird and muscle car books and some muscle cars as well and of course Warplanes!!!!

1/1250 and 1/1200 scale model ships. I also used to collect CDs and LPs and probably have a around 1,000 total between the two formats.
