I probably have one that no one else will say. I collect Funko Pops, though more than half of mine are Simpsons ones, so I have a fairly specific collection. Sort of like if someone collected T206 cards and had the set, but there are also some random T cards from other sets there too.

My brother, who is nine years younger than me, started collecting them when they first came out. He has over 400 now I believe. My mom bought me a Grinch one at Christmas six years ago. I even said to her, what am I going to do with this? I put it on my desk, where it sat as the only one I had for over a year. That was until I saw some Simpsons ones and decided to buy them.

It makes shopping for me easier for other people. At my birthday in a few months, I'll just send whatever ones I want to people and they will usually get them. Then find new ones I want between then and Christmas. I learned that it prevents people from buying me clothes.
