Hmmmmm... I used to collect Matchboxes/Hotwheels, though that phase kinda died out...

I know I have collected a decent amount of old video games and systems throughout my years... NES, SNES, 2 Genesis', PS1, 3 N64s, 3 Dreamcasts, 2 Gamecubes, 2 PS2s, Xbox 360, Wii + tons of games...

Do ho ho, I've just been notified that I'll be receiving a very cool yoyo in the mail as a prize for a writing contest I won. I'll have pictures when I get it, if any of you care :roll: .

Got this for winning second place in a yoyo related writing contest on another forum. It's an original SPYY Addict. If any of you recall in my first post, I had a green one too, but I sold it.

Here is it with the Addiction 2, which is the third remake of the Addict:

And here's my SPYY group shot!

I hope you guys don't mind if I keep dumping pictures of new arrivals here. This is a collection thread after all :lol:

This is my latest acquisition, the HSpin Pyro. Pretty much the hotrod of yoyos; large, slow(HEAVY, I meant HEAVY), tempermental (hahaha), and absolutely bangin' looking. Oh, and it's Italian. That can't hurt ;)

And here's my collection as of now:

Regarding the 2nd and 3rd one. Gosh, get more games and hand-helds. That NES selection is lacking! >:/ Regardless, I am a bit impressed by how you have so many DS's. I guess 2 belong to you and 2 to a sibling, kinda like how me and my brother have it? Just wondering. ^^;

Huh......that just leaves me to question why you have 4 of them for yourself. ^^; I understand 2 or 3, for updating to the new systems. But 4 sounds kinda unnecessary. Anyways, I hope this is not off topic any. Me being a collector of games just makes me wonder what your story was. ;P

Decided to take a picture of all of mine, and not just the metal ones. I picked up three awesome plastics at a meetup I just went to on sunday. Here's the collection as of now, minus one or two:

Well one I collect nintendo handhelds and two, if I have friends over I have spare DS's they can use. Also my friends tend to borrow my stuff so it's allways handy to have back ups!

Also I plan to get the 3DS sometime. But I'm not getting the Accursed Virtual Boy. EVER

Thanks! You do have a cool collection of weapons, bro! :mrgreen: Those rapiers are pretty sweet, and you have ninja weapons that I don't have....
There is one more sword I'd like to get to add to my collection, but I have to go out of town to get it, so I have to wait.

To Flint: Yeah, their really made to be put on display, but I have 'em in my closet right now, so they're hidden. :D I use the swords for protection when I go up in the woods, because there's all sorts of stuff you got to watch out for... There also fun to play with as long as your careful. :lol:

Firstly, Yu Gi Oh cards are awesome. I'v e had my little collection for ages now, although it's only really a book of rare and semi-rare cards and my deck.

Secondly, what is the round one by the way? In the picture, Tounge. I've never seen anything like it.

When I moved, I found a huge box of old Yugioh and Pokemon cards that'd been sitting in my closet. I got all nostalgic.

Kill you? You just redeemed yourself! People who play(ed) card games are awesome iff they have Pokémon and/or Magic cards.

Oh, man. I didn't even realize you had asked me a question, bud... :lol: Sorry about that...

That's a pocket knife that has 3 blades that fold out. It's supposed to look like a throwing star. Here's what it looks like opened.

Haha! It does doesn't it? I wish it was a true throwing weapon. It'd probably fly apart if it hit something to fast...

You know that symbol in the middle? I REALLY wish that was a button that when you pushed it, all the blades would come out at once... 8-) That'd be so tight....

ok, that'd be insanely awesome. That's the type of knife I want really badly right now. Thinking about it, knives are some of my fav' types of weaponry and I only own a traditional Scottish Skean Dubh

Do you have any thrift shops where you live? You could probably find something like that at one.... Scottish/Celtic stuff is hardcore. :shock: I want to see that knife....I bet it's really cool.

That's my Skean Dubh, anyway. Not quite as hardcore as you'd expect. :P

Also, when I googled thrift shop, Wikipedia told me charity shop. If that's what you mean, then we have a few. Never seen anything cooler then old kids games and clothes though.

Those look pretty sweet. I bet they're sharp too... Eh, I don't think that's the kind of shop I was talking about. I meant something like a shop that sells collectables... Sorry for giving you the wrong name. I actually got that knife and the 4 shuriken at a flea market for a decent price. The swords I bought at a store and I got the knives from different places. I actually had a katana before I got the two swords, but I got rid of it because I ended up not liking the color.... :lol: It was like a signature sword of this samurai dude, which was cool, but I was wanting a ninja katana instead.
