Not content with just games and consoles, ryanttb posted his delightful collection of Nintendo Power Player Guides. That Link to the Past guide is my favorite of all time.

ZeroThePrototype gave us another look at more of his gear, and this time it’s his collection of sweet handheld games! Check out the terrific Gameboy cart display stand!

Dali (hey, that’s me!) is showing off his stacks of LEGO, Hot Wheels, and amiibo, all boxed up and nowhere to go! This is how I keep my amiibo stored — plastic bins! — and have an Excel file listing each one, which game they’re for and if they’re first edition or modern editions. I have a couple Japanese versions of amiibo, and even the infamous Mario Cereal box that I’ll have to dig out one day.

I don’t have as many LEGO as I used to, but I do have some bangers. I picked up all the major Super Mario launch sets, I’m a sucker for the gaming consoles, and that brown box houses the Great Deku Tree Legend of Zelda set. If I had space to put them somewhere I’d open some of these up.

Being a car guy I’m also into Hot Wheels. I have some from the Nineties, but didn’t really start collecting until around 2006 or 2007. I’ve amassed somewhere around 750 cars, which is tiny compared to other collections, but I do angle more towards real vehicles and Batmobiles.

Here are just a handful of those aforementioned Bat vehicles. I have roughly around 30 different Hot Wheels Batmobiles at this point, I think?

I have friends who design Hot Wheels cars for Mattels, so of course I’m going to buy the ones they design.
