So, finally I'm here. As a lifelong collector I've developed an awful lot of interests and collected a lot of interesting stuff, and it seemed like time to start examining what I'm doing. Why do we collect? What's the difference between a fan and a geek? We'll see.
So the plan is, to three times a week post an image either of something I've got, or something I've observed out in the world, and comment on it. I'm not sure where this will go, but I want to build a list of every different type of thing I've ever collected.
Up first - just because I happened to have the photo handy on my computer right now - are a whole bunch of Marvel mini-figs. I really got into these for awhile, particularly Spider-man characters. There's Gwen Stacy and even Spider-man 2099 in the back row! These little guys are great, but I just sort of stopped buying them. They still occupy a couple little clear shelves on my desk at work.
