Was thinking about this while shuffling around my little collection of FASA's old Star Trek minis from their Tactical Starship Simulator game:

I dont even have the rules, nor have ever played the game, but I love the original Star Trek series and movies 1-3, and the technical designs of these ships. My all time favorite is the Andor. But I love collecting these guys as I have the time and money. I have zero interest in other manufacturers tho, just the old FASA ones.

Anyway, I was wondering if there was any oddball things you guys collect. Gaming or whatever.

Aside from gaming, I have two other major hobbies...

Robots. Specifically, but not limited to, transforming robots. Focused on Transformers and Macross. I have a massive collection stretching back from the mid-80s to modern day and including rare and exclusives.

YoYos. Kind of a strange one, but I have a collection of about 40 yoyos, in various styles and colour decos. This is my newest obsession.

Hi!

For me it's mainly RPG's. Currently collecting a wide variety of OSR games, although Swords and Wizardry seems to be the front running. Dungeon Crawl Classics is pretty cool too.

On the miniature front, for now, epic consumes me on all fronts.

However I am taking a long hard look at "All quiet on the Martial Front". The game "speaks" to me.

I like to photograph everyone I see in the street. I'm hoping one day to have a photograph of everyone that lives in Glasgow. It's like Pokemon but with 593,060 people to collect it will take a long time to "catch 'em all".


Yes, I'm kidding!

I have a decent collection of Avalon Hill games, especially Advanced Squad Leader. I started with Squad Leader and transitioned to ASL when it was released.

I recently started collecting glass Coca Cola bottles. Right now I'm working on getting at least one of each size, preferably ones that were made in Connecticut, or at least New England.

My shifting projects

Miniatures wise it's pretty much all epic these days for me. I bought one 40k mini just to see what finecast was like on release, otherwise it's been 6mm for years. Got to agree with Primarch though, All quiet on the Martian Front does look excellent.

The main thing I collect outside of epic at present is books. Not that I really 'collect' them in the same way, but i probably aquire them 4 times faster than I read them.

Still in the sci-fi/fantasy front I play a range of PC games, though not as much as I used to. I mostly just play GW2 in a horrendously casual manner now. Used to play a lot of eve.

I've still got a large star wars collection from when I was younger. It's all boxed up in my parents' attic and pretty much all worthless. Every couple of years I decide I should sell it, then realise it has tiny value

For me I'm pretty much a old (Oldhammer) miniature collector/gamer/painter. I long given up on current GW and now prefer to spend by cash on alternatives or the oldies.

Currently along with Epic, I'm collecting the 1980's Citadel Judge Dredd range which is a git to find at times heh

I've just got into Dead Man's Hand by Great Escape Games, which is a 28mm skirmish Hollywood cowboy game using cards and counters. I might look into Saga or Bolt Action later in the year.

Currently working on the following Epic:

Orks
Genestealer Cult
Scenery/Buildings

Boardgaming and historical games, with various miniature armies.

For those interested, I can strongly recommend "House Divided" using the Living rules from Alan Emrich.

Other than epic I play warmaster, I have dwarf and bretonnian armies in progress as well as skaven, vamps and lizardmen in the pipeline....

Outside of wargaming I guess you could say I collect albums.... 99% of which are somewhat obscure metal bands which most of you won't have heard of... I probably have about 1200 CDs which is about 2.5 ikea billy bookcases full....

Other than that I tinker with electronics, I fitted solar panels to my shed last year which run the TV and lighting in my house.... I have half a tesla coil project, abandoned when I became a dad, and the guts of a tube amp in boxes in the attic

My hobby/painting threads

Army Forge List Co-ordinator

Battlefleet Gothic. Have most fleets for that too, though only Ork and 2 Dark Realm mini proxy fleets painted thus far.

Napoleonics in 28mm, have French, plus unpainted Austrian and Russians.
Ancients and Renaissance in 15mm - Have a big Indian army that covers all periods.
Warhammer Fantasy, have about 3 armies for this with figures dating back to dawn of time.
Computer games, various things that grab my fancy... just got the recent X-com that was released a couple of years ago.

I've actually got rid of a lot of figures over recent years, including all my 40k and all but one Ancients/Renaissance army. But bought loads of Epic and BFG - lots of game in a small space suits me better.

As to modeling I stick to Epic and BFG nowadays.

When not chasing my two crumb-snatchers around I enjoy long distance running and sailing (currently working towards certification for open water navigation).

We tinker with our own set of necromunda/mordheim/epic/lotr/40K rules for 28mm gaming. Just bought x-wing also.

Really like boardgames and LCG:s.

Other than that most of my time spent training BJJ and coaching grappling and MMA.
