    		 One by one...

    Any type of toy: I rarely played with toys when I was young. Usually it was a book, art supplies, or my computer. However, there was one toy that I loved and stood out--my Brio wooden railway set. I have quite a few pieces to this. Still looking for a steam engine...

    Video games: Unless you count my collection of old Macintosh educational programs, I really don't have a collection of video games. Just a few that I play now and then.

    DVDs: I think I have maybe 10 or so. I usually rent these.

    VHS: Home movies! About 30 tapes of them! Commercially available VHS movies, no. Just a few that I liked and got on tape.

    Any type of cards: I have some baseball cards. I was never really into collecting them, which is strange because I love baseball (both to play and watch) but I made sure I got some of my favorite players. I also have this awesome Carlton Fisk card from about 1988 that I'm hoping might be worth something eventually.

    Comic books: I have read exactly two comic books in my life. Both are around somewhere.

    Any type of music: MP3 collection count? I try to get most remixes of ATB's stuff plus his albums...NEW ONE COMING SOON, CAN'T WAIT!!!

    Other: Coins. Why hasn't anyone put them here on the list? And I'm not just talking those state quarters, I'm talking the real stuff...Indian head pennies, Buffalo nickels, Mercury dimes, Barber quarters and dimes, Shield Nickels, V Nickels, Morgan silver dollars, Peace silver dollars, Barber half dollars, Walking Liberty half dollars, Standing Liberty quarters, "Princess" Gold Dollars, proof sets, even some odd denominations like 2 cent pieces, 3 cent pieces, and half cents...not to mention a large cent, a Flying Eagle cent...1850 is my oldest coin (my grandpa is also a collector and has one from 1809) and I'm not done collecting anytime soon! My collection of Lincoln cents from 1909 to today is almost complete, just missing a few. And I have both the "P" and "D" mintmarks for the state quarters. There is a coin shop next door to my barber so I check stuff out a lot.

    		 It's a toss-up between videogames and comic books. Funny thing is, the two are complete opposites, as I own Nintendo games while I collect Sonic the Hedgehog comics. I'll provide a list later.

    		 I collect a little bit of everything, but figures seems to be my big one right now (believe it or not, a girl collecting action figures)with about 600. I kinda got my start during the whole "pokemon craze" collecting all of those figures, and have managed to get 500 of them (and still working too). I also have a few other figures on shelves and in cabinets. One I'm still trying to get my hands on is this adult Link one that came out around '98 with his horse and accesories. I've seen them on eBay but they run for nearly $70 in box.

    Lion King things runs a close second with almost 100, and I'm working on my "global collection"; essentially, at least one coin from the past and present from each country across the globe. I've finished Europe entirely, Canada, Mexico, the Bahamas, and Japan.
    These aren't my rules. Come to think of it, I don't have any rules.

    		 My biggest collection would have to be my vintage Star Wars collection with a total of around 60 or 70 original figures, 12 vehicles including (2 of the most expensive vehicles I have, the Imperial Shuttle & a Jawa Sand-crawler) & 3 play-sets, the Ewok Village, Jabba & the American Death Star play-set. But believe me they are a pain in the neck to dust and speaking of which they are scheduled to be dusted this week.

    		 My Transformers and Star Wars toy collection is pretty big.

    Also, my Video/Computer Game collection is growing pretty big as well.
