The weirest thing I have in my house (except for 3 x snakes-alive n happy-not frozen like Gav's.lol) is/are about one dozen large tea-chest size boxes of star trek collectables, all brand new in box, from star trek orig, to star trek next generation, to star trek voyager, to star trek enterprise.
I must have about $30 to $50 grand worth of the stuff. And the good news is, it keeps going up n up in value each year $. Anything and everything u could imagine from franklin mint plates, to figurines, to specialised rare limited number releases, just all rare expensive stuff. I call it superannuation. My wife calls it silly.
My wife calls the 9 and 12 inch figures "Star Trek Barbies" and tells all her girlfriends that I play with star trek barbies. Which i friggin dont. They all sit safe wrapped up n untouched. But her girlfriends think i am barbie lover. WTF.
