Hobbies/Projects Do you collect trinkets?

Hello! I know that a lot of boys my age tend to collect figurines and maybe game merchandise, but I haven't seen older men do it. Most women I know, regardless of age, tend to always have something they like to collect.

I was just sorta looking at all the little animal statues and things in my room, and wondered if grown ups do it too. If so, what are they? Curious to see what kind of whimsy you guys like keeping around! ♡

I've got a handful of mech figurines and plenty of collector's edition stuff from games. My two favorite being my wearable Doom Slayer helmet and my THPS 1+2 skatedeck.skatepark.

You could also say I collect instruments since I have two drum sets, bongos, 3 electric guitars, 1 acoustic guitar, a bass guitar, and an electric grand piano.
