Hello... my name is Peter. It's been 1 year since I joined the forums without a proper collection. Now I at least have somewhat of a collection. In a few more months I should have a much neater and more refine collection.

Hopefully I'll have some pics by tomorrow as it's almost 1:00AM in the morning and just passed a TAFE course so I'm enjoying myself doing other things to celebrate.

I'll have to use Photobucket to post my collection yes? Could I use something else?

Thanks :) You'll be seeing my collection soon :D

Gratz on passing your course, no Idea what it is though :P Yes you'll have to use photobucket or something similar to host the images then link to them here. There are plenty of alternatives to Photobucket though if you don't get on with it....Imgur, Flickr, tinypic just to name a few.

Looking forward to seeing your stuffs :)

Pokemon Poster from 1997/1998. I've had that since I was 8/9 years old and my first piece of memorabilia. I remember picking this out from the newsagents when I was with my grandma and asked my mom to laminate it for me. I've only starting seriously collecting since getting YS Seven CE and Ni No Kuni Wizard Edition. This is the AUS version.

Properly the easiest and best luck of collecting for. Tales of Symphony USA Gamcube game sealed, Digicube Tales of Symphonia Soundtrack, Art Cel, Art Book, USA Guide, 1 of 3 and 3 of 3 Pack of Sweepstakes Cards.

Cardboard Poster for when you pre-ordered the game in USA back in 2004. There's a white one which goes up and down, but the green one is the coolest!

Properly the hardest I had in terms of luck for (Dark Chronicle/Dark Cloud 2). Dark Chronicle Soundtrack and Art Book. The stone in the middle is Labradorite and to the right is Ni No Kuni Wizard Companion due to space issues.

The Dark Cloud 2 Promo Box Display is HUGE!!! The only place I can keep it in is my closet. I haven't seen this in anyone else's Dark Cloud collection.

It's my favorite series by far!!! Dark Dawn was watered down tho. Golden Sun Memorabilia is very hard to find information on for the first 2 games. I have a few more Golden Sun things on the way :D

I agree with you one Dark Dawn but when I first played lost age I almost died. It was just so full of things to find that I actually wanted. Also nice Tales of Symphonia stuff. I'm a big fan of the Tales series! Can't wait for Tales of Zestiria. :)

Lost Age was the best because you really feel like you're exploring while you make your way through the environment with your Psynergy. The only other game that came close to that feeling was Skies of Arcadia.

I miss the "you being a giant while you explore the world" from the older Tales of games. Also I wish more JRPGs had more and better puzzles in dungeons. It's too straight forward now days. I might play Zestria due to it's lush green and sky islands :)

Top: Instructions that come with the Dark Cloud 2 Hanging Display which I forgot to take a picture of.

Bottom: Dark Chronicle: Premium Arrange and a white slip that came with it. I'm not sure what the white slip is but it's from the company that made the CD.

Pretty sure everyone's seen one of these before. Spyro CD Case. This came with Spyro 2 in a box with the game that only came out in Pal regions. Sadly the box was chucked out years ago. This is like the second oldest piece that just came to me randomly as a kid.

Nice update. I totally missed your Skies wooden sword on the last one. How rare is that and was it a promo or part of a press kit?

Also, how collectible do you think phone cards are? I've seen them strewn around in various eBay merchandise but have yet to see them for IPs that I've cared about so I've never gotten them.

Going by the the ONLY other picture of another Wooden Sword. He/She says "I can only find one other occurrence of this thing on the internet, and apparently it was given away at some sort of press event." This is pretty much all we know about it. I honestly think it's the holy grail of Skies Memorabilia, rarity scale to the Wind Waker Scroll maybe?

These are the only phone cards I own. Since Skies memorabilia is scarce as hell, I decided to pick them up. Seems like there was one for every month but I can't find any more pictures of any new phone cards atm.

Collect what you enjoy! Give Yahoo Japan Auctions a try.

Tales of Symphonia Phone Strap

Now HERE'S something you don't see very often. The only reason I knew this existed is due to a old site that had this there which also had pics of the Limited Contest Cards and Art Cel. There's also two OTHER items on that site that you don't see very often which I have also acquired from the same seller...

PS: Isn't the the detail of the symbol awesome! Oh and back then it was worth $80 US!!!. Who knows much it would be worth on the ebay market now...

These ain't the items you're looking for...

These were the "other" items I was talking about. Back then on the site it was worth $50 US per set of 5. Who knows how much the complete set would be worth on ebay now...

Always loved me some "Tails" games! Those are great items as well. I'm always amazed at how many random things they released for these JRPGs back in the day. Most of the things I've been hunting for Lunar have only been sold in some small Japanese location or only released for a short time and may quite be gone forever... Glad you were able to find these great Tails items though! Thanks for sharing! :thumb:

The Phone Strap and Bookmarks were brought from Yahoo Japan Auctions, the person was basically selling his whole collection. Most of it being from original 2003 release. It was also the first time I've seen every trading card set for sale. Sadly I don't have room for that many trading cards.

Yeah I know about that one for quite some time. You see it's the issue of space... I had a chance of getting one sealed for a good price on ebay. All I could do is store it in the cupboard -_- (I got the one coin figures because it was a full set sealed, which is rarer, more characters and smaller if I ever plan to put them together.
