Jay - my Matchbox collection (except the nice ones) were destroyed by the falling brick from the top floor, or the can of paint followed by the lighter trick...

As for my hobbies, I like photography and cooking. I have a set of IO Shen Japanese cooking knives. Very cool, very sharp but a bit expensive!  :cool:






I love these knifes, I like the way you can see the folds in the steel, only thing i found was the steel was very brittle!

[massive_nerd]My major hobby for the last while has been the Yu Gi Oh card game. It's basically a strategy game but with cards rather than chess pieces/warhammers. I've come 2nd in the last few tournaments entered and I'm going to an international qualifier this weekend. Top 8 qualify for the next round in the UK so here's hoping I get that far :grin:[/massive_nerd]

I used to play yu gi oh.

The only thing I can remember now are trap cards and the dark knight car.

I think there was a red eyed black dragon in there somewhere too... And a bubonic Vermin.

My collection has to be guitars...

My hobby would be my band.

Not very interesting.

I used to collect Pokemon cards  :evil:
Had one massi collection that I gave to my younger cousin.

Also used to collects Pogs.

Is it obvious that I'm a 1990s child?

Now I collect invoices for my MK2

used to collect hotwheels and keep them in the boxes but they all went missing somewhere, used to collect corgi mini's and clean them about every day, sold them in the end and £10 a piece on ebay.

  • Looking for an "Icebreaker"
Nicks Warhammer thread got me thinking, anyone treated themselves to any cool Diecasts over Christmas? I may start moving on my Hot Wheels collection in the new year, by the looks of it, the US "Redline" market has reached an all time low, and some great bargains to be had on US ebay! :lipsrsealed: :lipsrsealed: :embarassed:
