What stuff do you collect for nostalgia value?

What's something you like to keep around? I love finding something that takes me back. It would be cool to find some stuff I forgot about too


I personally collect Pokemon cards, Bionicles, Tech Decks, Tech Deck Dudes, Guitar Hero guitars, and lil homies. I archive a lot of media from my childhood also. I almost have 1.5 TB of cartoons, anime, and movies. I also have a few hours of commercial breaks from the early 2000's. I've been thinking about making my own cartoon block lol 


Thinking about picking up an OG World Industries deck. I miss seeing the Devil man, Wet Willie, and Flameboy

Pillow Pets. I got my first one (the red ladybug) when I was 4 years old and I still have it to this day. I also own a dolphin Pillow Pet which I got at the end of 4th grade when I was 9 1/2 years old. I plan on getting another one at some point, maybe for Christmas or something (I'm thinking of getting the bumblebee one).

I love collecting old media and toys, like monster high and ugly dolls. I also want to start to collect some old books like my sister is a vampire or the poison apple books. I have some old gaming consoles like the Wii and a ds lite, planning on getting a 3ds and a Gameboy at one point. \^0^/

I wish I could get an old camcorder that records onto either compact VHS or Hi8 videotapes from around 1990-2003 because I wanna get that old-school look without having to edit them in After Effects or Sony Vegas. I would prefer the ones that have a night vision mode if I'm ever trying to catch ghosts in my sleep. (I know that Sony still produces camcorders that have night vision, but they're expensive and don't record onto videotapes.) Anyways, I think that look is cool and I'm trying to go for that late '80s-early '00s look without having to use shitty filters that look nothing like VHS or Hi8.
