I've got a pretty huge rock collection packed away in the attic.
I also collect these guys (1/60 scale Perfect Grades)
Glad to see I'm not the only one who has some cool rocks sitting in a closet. Will probably unpack those one of these days if we are able to move into a different house...
Also, I have a bit of a laugh at the fact those Gundams are still a foot tall, even in 1/60 scale.
Little jealous, but I don't have the patience to put that stuff together. I'm more a Lego kind of guy.

i have about 1200 hot wheels cars in blister packs...
That... is awesome. I still have about a dozen, mostly well-used Ferrari and Lamborghini hot wheels from when I was a kid. Didn't know it then, but the F40 was my best performing hot wheel track car. Funny to think, that of all the hot wheels I had, it best represented the real life counterparts in capabilities.

about 600 license plates, all 50 states, 3 canadian , and one from every decade back to the 20's
I gotta ask, is that on display somewhere, or stored? I wish I could get an era-appropriate plate for my 46 Chevy and actually license the car with it, but something tells me they'd still want those stupid little stickers on them, and that just might ruin the whole idea.
As for me, over the years I've collected a decent amount of video games, mostly Playstation and PS2 era stuff, posters, I even have a Resident Evil wall clock with the first zombie in the game in the back. Gotta love odd old video game store displays...
Probably the only proper "collection" I have is PSM/PTOM magazines. I actually just picked up the last handful that I didn't have this afternoon. Have probably spent WAY more than I'd care to admit on all of it, but it's been a gradual buildup. Most of it is in great condition still, in fact the first issue (and a few others) are literally brand new, have been stored in the original mailers they were sent in (the previous owner bought them as back issues, and kept them in the mailers for... 14 years?). Kinda cool if you're into that sort of thing, and I grew up reading the magazine.
...plus, it keeps the book shelf from going anywhere, with ~190 issues on it.
