Collecting

Thanks for the awesome responses guys. I like seeing how some of you also collect outside of toys.

Here are some pictures of my old car collections. After I took these, I gave them away as I didn't have a strong interest in them, although I kept the Life Savers, Yoplait, and one of the oldest cars as those are the only ones I really liked. Anyone got pictures of their own to share?

Hi I also collect Nintendo figures Mario, Legend of Zelda, and Pokemon series all three of which Tomy have made figures for. I also collect Nintendo Amiibo's which is extremely frustrating.

I love those toys a lot. Some of the World of Nintendo toys like the playsets that have been released in the last two years I love the look of but since I focused on another Mario series, I don't think I can get invested in more than one range.

I've grown to like the look of Amiibo more and more, but I can't see a point to when I might actually use them in games. If I eventually do, I think I will only get the few that usually remain in stores. How do you collect them? Boxed, unboxed? Looking for them all? I've been on the sub Reddit where I hear the scene sometimes gets rather ugly.
