Do you collect anything else apart from dinos? It can be anything really.  :D

I collect video games, particularly rare PS1 RPGS. I have a collection of over 150 games at the moment.
I also collect teddy bears, art books, and coloured pencils (don't ask XD)


Thundercharge

For the longest time I collected Transformers, and still have a bunch of those (had a couple hundred at one point!). I also have some comic book figures, and a cool handful of Zoids :)


Click sig for my collection! :)

sepp

I collect rocks, minerals, and fossils. And pokemon cards  8)

mmfrankford

 I collect ordovician fossils from the Cincinnati region (especially trilobites and gastropods) and sea shells. I also have a large collection of Zoids.

Patrx

I have an inordinate number of Pokémon figures that could be considered a collection :P Also, I've got several fossils and fossil replicas that I display with my dinosaurs. And some Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers cosplay replicas and figures - though, much like the Pokémon stuff, that is less of a deliberate collection and more of a "Hm, these things would look cool on a shelf".

Therein lies, for me, their purpose - a colorful, plastic barricade against the unyielding current of time and maturity. An oasis of childlike simplicity in the desert of adult complexities.

That, and they are really neat :D

Sigh..I must be too old, my childhood involved the Transformers, G.I.Joe, and Thundercats.  ;D I still fondly remember a whole toy aisle being devoted to Transformers.

DinoLord

I collect fossils. My collection consists primarily of ammonites and shark teeth.

Same here but that was a pretty powerful statement by Pixelboy and one of the reasons I collect dinosaurs. I also collect fossils and anything from the outdoors; skulls, feathers and stuff like that. Also books, mostly about natural history and also DVDs mostly horror and sci fi.

Horridus

Models of human skulls, although I only have one 'serious' 1:1 scale replica. I like to go for the plainer ones rather than the ones covered in rune symbols or what have you.

Also, old dinosaur books! But there's an important reason for that...

stoneage

  I collect music like 45's, Picture sleeves, Vinyl Albums, Cassettes, CD's, DVD's etc.  I have a rather eclectic collection of different styles of music, and time periods.  Although some form of Rock and Roll makes up most of it. 

Pachyrhinosaurus

I have a collection of fossils, including elrathia, phacops, neuopteris, and many more. My favourites are my cleoniceras shells from Madagascar..

ZoPteryx

As a bird watcher, I guess I could say that I collect bird sightings. ;)
I also collect some other animal figures besides dinos, and wildlife field guides (I'm trying to get the whole world covered for every category of animal.)
I formerly collected LEGOs and Transformers.

Well, thanks  ;D I was just waxing poetic, but it rings true for me as well.
