My McDonalds Snoopy's from back in the day, mixed in are some flying fortress bears. They're on the only "clean" surface in my room.

And there's a guinness hat of sorts in the background, and various bits of my art supplies (Y)

I have a massive box on mc donalds toys in the loft one of those massive storage boxs with lid and everything filled to the brim quite a few of them still in the plastic bag the come with. Maybe just maybe one day they might be worth something.

Can't stand that drippy crap haha, i've noticed alot of graffiti artists popping up here recently though, is good :)

I collect nothing haha, random ornaments and stuff i guess, i buy some sort of nice trinket in every country i go to. I also collect strret art pieces but i dont have the money to truly fund that haha.

I agree, lets make an "i hate belton paint" thread :)

If you've never used montana gold, you haven't lived. It's the god of all paint.

I have loads of pictures of old pieces/ collaborations aswell, i suppose that could be classed as a collection?

And my canvases, haven't got round to selling them yet :P

I can't stop adding to my music and video collection, I have systems to organise them and just can't stop downloading!

I've got every episode of Just Shoot Me. No idea why, I wasn't that keen when I watched them all on telly!

Physical stuff I'm the opposite though, I through away as much stuff as possible, I love having empty draws and surfaces. Comes from before my Mum left, she had a study room that was so full of shite she had to do all her studying in the dining room, so now I love having everything tidy and ordered, all the cables hidden away etc. :P

Have I got OCD?

I dont. :P

And yeh, I hate having unfinished "projects", I love it when I finish stuff off. :P

Some stuff though I really struggle to stop, like when I had my Echo and kept trying to make it lighter, I spend loads on that b*****d thing.

I collect car brochures.

I've got over 1000 in total, mainly Saab and VAG.

I collect brochures of the same print but with the different serial numbers on the back, so if I get a car I can then read the brochure from the month the car was bought which is cool.

"Does anyone else collect stupid crap?!"......Welcome to my world! :lol:

My collecting hobbies started when I was 9 years old. Whilst on holiday in the Lake District, I found a rather intriguing matchbox on the pavement. It had a pretty picture of a hotel on the front. It had been raining, so the box was damp. As I carefully opened it, to my utter joy it was full of matches, but they were made of black wood, with white heads! So began an obsession. I ended up with over 1000+ matchboxes, from all corners of the globe (full and unspent), stored in the drawers under my bed. Thinking back, if any had ignited, I would have been the 1st boy in space, on a mattress.

My interests then developed to collecting, knives, beer bottles, pieces of found metal, wood and interesting stones. Weirdly, I don't seem to have grown out of this. I now collect, not unsually, records, cassettes, Cd's, magazines, musical instruments and such. But, to the extent that when buying our house, my Wife insisted we get one with an extra room to house all my 'crap' :blink: Cool! I'm sat typing this surrounded by my 'collectables' :)

But I suppose the most irrational ones, are the cupboard full of foam packing I keep at work, (Yes, my workmates take the piss, but they can't see the overall 'plan'). Oh yeah, I also have a tendency to hoard boxes and tins. My shed is full of useful storage containers, but they contain nothing within, except box within box, tin within tin. 'Russian Doll' syndrome?

But I suppose my weirdest collection, is a ball of 'magazine snot'. You know, the stuff they use to stick CD's to the cover of magazines? Well I've been collecting it over the years and formed a ball of it slightly bigger than a golf ball. I tried to take a picture of it to post on here, but it fell off the desk and got stuck with some dog hair and 'unmentionables' and it didn't really look fit for 'human consumption'.

I probably regret posting this reply, but f**k it! Has anyone collected anything weirder?
