Some Star Wars things--toy-wise, figurines (like I have ceremic C3P0 & R2D2--got it years and years ago from Spencers. I also have posters--got 8 of the AOTC A Jedi Will know neither hate or love one for doing a interview on a local TV station in my Jedi costume. The one you can't buy. I donated one for MOTF auction last Dragoncon 2002. I also collect anything to do with dragons--have since i was in high school and my father brought me home my first dragon from an white elephant sale from church. Hubby and I collect anything on Siberian Huskies or wolves (cause our husky looks like one or crossbred), Star Trek, SciFi-related and LOTR, stuffed animals that catch our fancy, flying horses (well, that's my hubby's thing), fire department stuff(hubby again-he's a volunteer fire fighter), books, and collectible dolls (SciFi, fantasy and historical). We also colelct good artwork--mostly SciFi & fantasy & horror related--I try and bid for some stuff at con art shows). I also collect stuff on Tigger and on cats and horses. JMD

I collect Hasbro action figures, baseball cards, and baseball collectables. I was a big Don Mattingly fan when in high school and have many of the ceramic collectables that were for sale many years ago.

Jade & Nova -- I collected Breyer horses until about 5 years ago. I was really into them, ,showed them and everything. I even wrote a couple oof magazine articles about them (Western Horseman December 1994). Then my husband got really sick with an autoimmune disease he still suffers from (and always will) and couldn't work and was too sick for me to work too (I am his caregiver) so I ended up selling all of them. I had well over 150 of them and slowly sold them off. That's how I started on ebay. They really saved our lives, but t this day my huubby feels bad that I had to sell them to save us. As for SW, I collect the books (my best friend has every single book from the EU they have made) and some figures. Also have some of the Hallmark ornaments -- just the ones I like tho. I missed the Obi-Wan this past year and it looked so nice. I am waiting to get one on eBay once the price drops a little, as I am sure it will by next Christmas. I just collect whatever catches my eye. Somehow though they all end up in my son's playroom. I have sold a few things that I had though (like an E-wing). I just buy what I like. Oh! I also collect snowmen, but only have 6 at this point.

I have a small lightsaber collection which consists of 5 machined aluminum hilt prop replicas, 5 plastic hasbro versions, that die cast Anakin saber by masterreplicas, and a few built out of plumbing pipes, flashlights and other odds n' ends. I have a bunch of other SW stuff, 12 in. figures, ships, super soakers, etc. I'd like to collect the Hallmark ornaments...my Christmas tree has had a homemade Death Star atop it for many years. I also have collected rocks ever since I was, 3- according to my mom. I recently added two tektites and a stony iron meteorite!

I have a tektite in my medicine bag, it was the 1st thing I put in it. Aside from SW, the largest collection that I have is QUEEN memorabilia, it's to big to describe. I have a collection of little hedgehogs, I started collecting them on my 1st trip to the UK more than 20 years ago, and always bring home at least one if not a few more, most of them are really miniature, smaller than an inch and the largest one is about the same size as a real adult hedgehog. I also have a small collection of porcelain fairies, they have wings from allsorts of butterflies and moths, and one has wings from a giant african locust. Before anybody howls, they are collected after the creatures have died a natural death.

I bet those are beautiful...My daughter has a beautiful hand carved clay fairie. She has very little color except her wings and she is blowing a bubble through a little ring. The bubble is glass. It is beautiful. I've been trying to find one like it....

Oh, I forgot to mention my Starbucks bear collection. I was going to sell them on e-bay a couple of years ago but my son (who was 6 then) fell in love with them.
Nova, what does your tektite look like? They're so mysterious!

I have most of the Hasbro figures from Episodes I & II, an antique beer can/bottle collection-about 300 items from all over, old fishing lures, and some railroad items. Garage sales has the best treasures for stuff, then Flea Markets.

I collect a variety of different Star Wars items. Mainly, the Hasbro toys. I'd like to get into the Master Replicas, but the cost is really prohibitive.

I collect mainlty the Hasbro 12" line. From 1996 onwards. I am awaiting with great patience the Yoda Ultimate comming out this fall. Other wise I cracked for the Jedi Remote form Master Replicas. It looks so good. I might try to get the Luke ESB ligthsaber, all of these are quite expensive. I do have some Legos and some bages from Episode I crew in the digital dept. I donc think many collectors have those...
