Personally, I like collecting VHS Tapes

I like to collect comics and manga that i really like, in english, spanish and other languages like italian or portuguese. Some of them are signed, and i have sketchs and a original page of a couple of local artists like Quique Alcatena, Leonardo Manco and Pato Delpeche. Here's a part of my collection:


I still have a couple of things unrelated to comics like some classical music CD's, or a set of complete Digimon Sticker Album's of the first two seasons, published by Panini many decades ago (alongside some bootleg figures of the digidestined) and unsorted magazines. I made collage so i keep a stack of old National Geographics, Architectural Digest and Muy Interesante near my living.
 
well DVD and CD´s.

Got a collection of over 200 movies and animes.
A collection of over 2000 music CD "in storage"
anime figures
and minimal things. I mean cute mini things of real life things like a very mini sega mega drive and it´s not working it´s just a displaything. I got no clue why but I love mini things they are just neat.
Also collect coffee mugs like that has motives from movie or animes or games I like.

My favorite mug I have is this one. I could take a photo my self on it but im lazy to do so >.<

So yeah that´s what I collect + video games.
 
I dunno if I can count my DVDs/CDs as a collection, since I throw away most of the cases and put them in binders, but I deffo collect books. Got a fair few shelves stuffed with books that me and my partner have picked up over the years from old bookshops/markets.

My only other major collectable, I guess, are my Cassette Tapes. I have a fair few for both music and comedy tapes that I've been putting together over the years. There are a few modern ones in there, but my prize pieces are probably the two cassette box-sets of The Hobbit (1968 - BBC Radio) and The Lord of the Rings (1981 - BBC Radio), both of which are pretty cool editions:

This is the radio release they did in 1992 for Tolkien's centennial (he was born in 1892) It's got a little booklet in that actually explains the production which is awesome, because it sounds really weird, and the reason for that is because the BBC's radiophonics workshop decided to adjust pitch and volume based on Bilbo's purspective. So the dwarves/humans sound really deep, but the goblins are high-pitched, because the dwarves/men are bigger than Bilbo, while the goblins are smaller. Honestly, it doesn't really come across that well, but it does make this adaptation sort of hilarious, especially combined with some of the odd pronunciations used.

This is the LOTR cassette collection, and it's also pretty awesome. My copy is missing tape 1, but luckily, they're easy to replace, and for now, I've just used my digital CD copy to create a repro of episode 1. It's another great adaptation from Brian Sibley, but what makes it extra AF is that, like The Hobbit, all of the cassette spines are rendered in gold:

I collect Tolkien books of varying edition and language (mostly English and Swedish). I also collect Tintin and Asterix albums (not my images, I have fewer), and Moomin mugs (though I don't hoard them, I only collect the ones I actually want).
