I collected rocks when I was little... not special rocks, just rocks that I found. I looove rocks, fun to stuff in your pocket so you can throw them at things later on.

i still collect rocks when i go to the beach. i just keep the cool ones and i keep them in clear jars on my dresser.

 

i used to collect keychains when i was younger. i have sooo many of them, oh my goodness.

ahh yes crazy bones. good times. how about creepy crawlers? i dont know if u wanna call it a collectible but it was sweet

At least those things were popular to collect at some point. I used to be big on collecting coins, all sorts of them, I still have a lot but they never see the light of day anymore.

I sucumbed to the Pog phase in grade 4-5 and then a marvel card game called overpower in grade 6-7. I still have all my overpower cards... BOOOYAH

I never got Pogs or Pokemon... But I was pretty hardcore with LEGO until I got into highschool... And even then I still used LEGO to make movies for english. Mr. Seviour Loved the LEGO.

 

I got into Magic: the Gathering in highschool too. I still play every so often.

 

I don't know if it's so much as collecting, but I bought tons of PSX games and got pretty into that scene. Right when I got my Playstation was when I stopped doing homework(To played non-stop Final Fantasy, Dragoon, Xenogears, Castlevania SOTN etc.)

Yup I have some magic cards too. I had a Zombie deck and a suicide black deck.... ahhh I'm a dork. I think I'm going to get rid of everything but my zombies, mostly because I'm a fan of zombies in general.

I collected and still collect to this day Coca-Cola memoribilia. And as well I have quite the extensive hockey card collection, including a personally signed rookie card of my favorite player, Theoren Fleury.

I collected Pogs for a year or two when I was little, and I still play Magic all the time. My friends and I all have huge collections probably worth around a thousand bucks each. Painfully nerdy? Yes, but it's really fun.

Where those the ones that came in an opaque garbage bag thing, and you had to dissolve it in water to know which figure you got? Or was Trashcan Warriors?

Yeh i forgot i have a shitload of hockey cards. I stopped collecting like 7 years ago though

I had POGs briefly. Lego consumed my whole childhood, but i wouldn't really consider Lego a collectible.

 

I used to scam other kids during the Pokemon craze. I hated those fucking things so much, but I managed to scam about $70-80 from stupid kids. And that was a lot of money in the 5th grade.

I still have (as far as I know) all of my collections, but none have grown in years. Let me see if I can recall them all... coins, stamps, rocks, pogs, hockey cards, old pop bottles, and slurpee cups. The Slurpee cups one still grows, but my mom threw out a bunch of my old ones when they moved to Kelowna ;)
