In addition to Japanese monsters and robots, I've consistently accumulated Star Wars toys for nearly 30 years now.

I used to collect reptiles and amphibians, but now most of them are gone.

I also collect failed relationships.

Black and white originals. Jack Kirby, Mike Allred, Keith Giffen, Marshall Rogers, John Buscema and a few others.

Skate decks (Mainly Pushead, Supreme, Powell and Jim Phillips)

Tee shirts by Fuct, Supreme and Stussy (they are my top 3)

Also like Kartell chairs by Philip Starck (four so far, but since downsizing, not expecting anymore)

Music

Previous action figure collections:
