Wow...I'm glad my interests are a little smaller 
I collect frogs (gee, I bet no one would ever guess that  ), and I collect ladybugs (again, no shocker).

I am a major collector
I collect (and have been collecting) all types of stuff over the years.
As a kid, I used to collect those "TV Guides" you get with your Sunday newspaper. I did that from the summer of 1986-1990. The stack was HUGE! I think my mother threw them away after that. 
Currently I collect:
Transformers
Currency (I am an amateur numismatician). I have some old coins and currency, some commemorative, and some foreign (Thai Bhat, Indian rupees, Bahama dollars, etc).
Black Heritage stamps.
This is just to name a few.

I collect........
Stuffed animals and black porcelain dolls
Haven't collected anything in quite a while b/c I'm trying to save money for different things and want to get my own place so I can have space to build my collection of either the animals or dolls.
ETA: I also have three boxes full of books that I have purchased and read. READING IS FUN-damental!

I collect elephants, books, and African art. I also collect Black barbies (such as the Black version of Gone With the Wind) for my daughter. My daughter collects lip glosses, she nows has nearly 100 different types.

Oh, and how could I forget....
...the piece de resistance:
I also collect old episodes of tv game shows, preferably those that were taped via their original broadcast and includes commercials.
For example, I have:
an episode of The Price is Right taped on NBC from 1957 with the original commericials.
Same with:
A rare 1st season ep. of Concentration from 1958 with a contest from Dial Soap to "Win Your Weight in Gold" (@ $246.50/lb.)
Three additional eps of Concentration, one from 1967, and two special Christmas eps, one from 1968, and one from 1969, the latter having commercials, and promos, one of which was highlighting the new NBC daytime lineup for January 1970.
Other studio masters of old shows include:
Jeopardy!, one from 1972, one from '74, the finale in '75, and a short live revival, the premeire ep in 1978 and the finale in '79.
I have an ep of Wheel of Fortune when Chuck Woolery was hosting and Susan Stafford turned the letters.
I love old shows with the original commericals and promos in them because they enhance the nostalgic viewing experience.
