Mumpy Puffinz posted:Real talk that’s super cool. the best thing to do with books is pick a niche and start putting together a curated collection. i have some misc other 1st editions (signed 1st of cash by johnny cash) but my focus is on arkham house right now. there was a recent auction in chicago that had an incredible collection of arkham house. they were really nice editions and i lost every auction i tried to go for. it was a short notice auction for me so i wasn’t ready to spend the money. i was still hoping for either the shunned house or outsiders and others by lovecraft but they wound up going for a little more than i could swing

zarbicore posted:I have friends who do this poo poo, and whilst I personally would never do that as it is just way too nerdy for even me, I at least admire that the hobby takes some skill. Way more skill than following lego instructions like me anyway. do you really think painting 40k minis is more nerdy than collecting star wars legos? i also collect nerd hobby tier lists so i’d appreciate you putting one together asap

Mumpy Puffinz posted:I'm not a collector. I was just at a used bookstore in New York like 20 years ago and saw it and picked it up. I don't even have it anymore. It's in my best friends bathroom dont let it fall in the toilet or it will go from near fine to vg+

Slugworth posted:As a scale modeler, yes, it's definitely nerdier than Lego. Lego is way more mainstream. Nobody is buying 1:35 scale Friends models to build and carefully paint. the gauge here is how much dignity you retain if you had to explain your hobby to another adult id say scale modeling > warhammer > collecting star wars legos >>> funko pops

tough thing about funko pops is people want them mint in box but how are you supposed to test the bobble if you don't take them out?
