I love mini toys, I got a small random collection, but I’m thinking of starting to take it seriously as a hobby and source of inspiration. I’ve always wanted to make toys of my own and I love how cute and compact minifigs usually are. No franchise in mind, it’s all based on cool vibes. #collecting

Bill Brinsmead, who was a member of our electric car club back in the day--when we all built our own EVs--he has a massive vacuum tube collection. Literally thousands of tubes! It's a sight to behold. The linked article has his story & lots of photos of Bill's tube collection. This is a Soviet era tube. It's from the Duga "Russian Woodpecker" radar.

Are there any serious vintage toy collectors on Mastodon?
Comic book shop or collectible store owners or such?
Looking to touch base. 🤘🤠

I'm envisioning a AP-enabled digital music platform that allows me to display a collection of recordings I've paid for. Not only would the artists get my money, but their records would be endorsed to my social network as music worth paying for, so at least worth a listen.
What I get out of it, as well as the warm fuzzies of giving financial support to artists I like, is the satisfaction of building and sharing a record collection. Without having to own physical media.
