My boys were watching one of the Gundam movies last month... it was pretty cool.


Oh Yeah, I also have some Robotech and Star Trek toys that they reissued in the 90s. They're in a box.... My wife won't let me display them or my old Rock/Metal or Rodney Matthews posters. I need me a cave....

. That's cool bro. Which were you watching? I am staring to watch 8th ms team gundam series and just finished the gundam 00 series. There is going to be a toy from a new series called real grade of the original gundam. I would recoment you to get one to build with your kids, I think will come in July for $30 maybe

I collect video games and have now for years. I used to collect CDs but with some exceptions, stopped, as I prefer to have them digitally for listening or on vinyl when available as I do not care for them much anymore. Yes, I know you can simply download and emulate (most) older games. However, unlike games, which actually get used and provide a more genuine and unique experience when played on the original hardware (the Virtual Boy for example) CDs do none of that and often just sit there, taking up space and never being used again after being ripped. Also, music CDs tend to, on a larger scale, have much lamer artwork than most games do, and I could go on about why I prefer collecting games instead.

Anyways, aside from games, I collect a variety of niche things including particular books and records. For books, it can be either fiction or non-fiction in some specific subject like hanafuda, reversi, calligraphy, foreign languages, programming, etc., and with LPs its stuff like 12" singles.
