I've already collected and sold all the standard issue 80s TSR color modules twice already, so no urge to go through the cycle again. :wink:




I am startting to feel more and more out of the mainstream. :? Does anyone else here collect modules? One of my main collecting goals is to have 1 of every common/uncommon 1st edition module in original shrink. Am I way off base with that or are there others?

i am just very impulsive. i will spot something and then "I HAVE GOT TO HAVE THAT" and there it is. doesnt fit into any mould or system :)



BUT its fun and thats more important to me.



i just like things that look interesting.

I think I'm more similar to you in my collecting habits (and like Al, impulsive).



I have bits of everything aside from Birthright (though I do have the boxed set). My ideal collection would be 2 copies of everything produced for the Known World/Hollow World/Mystara. One copy in mint & SW, the other to be used and abused. :D



This is probably heresy to say, but the Greyhawk line has never really interested me that much either. Though I have a few items, there's too much other stuff I want for me to start collecting material for another world.



Most of my stuff is either basic D&D or 2nd ed.


Mount Celestia doesn't want me and Baator's afraid I'll take over.

My main goal has always been to pick up one of all the modules for 1st edition.  I realized later that I really have no desire to get the Birthright or Dark Sun stuff.  I started out focusing on Greyhawk and then to Known World items, picking up a Forgotten Realms module here and there.  As far as first edition is concerned I only have a few Known World and Forgotten Realms modules left to go.  It was only after finding this site that I wanted to get some of the different supplements and rarer items just because I didnt even know about them before.



Now I want one of everything.  But I have to stop at multiple printings.  I dont have near enough room for that.  :wink:

Amen to that. I can see trying to get multiple printings of certain items, but when you start working on all printings of all items, you would need 2 freakin warehouses. 1 would be to store the stuff in and the second would be to house the money before you buy them all. 8O Or then again, it might be just cheaper and easier to move in with I/O. :P

*g*. Not fair... What's wrong with the 1stA, 1stB, 2nd and 3rd printings, Al?

Or is white back in fashion? ;)



*could do a nice wall collage of 1st print supps., too, whilst I've still got spares*

I know, I know.  I was thinking blasphemy when I first read it as well.  But when I first started collecting, I was all about Greyhawk.  Nothing else interested me at all.  It took me some time but there are some really great Known World modules and supplements.  Heck, I just wish that TSR had gone into greater depth with Greyhawk like they did with Mystara.  I also dig Forgotten Realms and Planescape.  And while I have a few Dark Sun items and the Birthright box set, I wont touch Spelljammer with the business end of a tol-kendar.  :D

well you could split the room into sections which would nicely correlate into the relevant prints :D



but then in the back garden, we could have "guido's gypsy wagon"



and then there is "stormbers auction hall", ready made with stage etc for all them rare auctions....pictures around the wall of all the ppl who have sold thru his auctions



then there is the Eastern treasure chest room.....which is empty bar for the thick layer of dust on the floor....



and the maxwell room, which is basically the toilet



then there is the creep room, where you pay admission and then ask for a refund cos the room wasnt what you thought



any more?

:lol: :lol: oh and Al :P That is why there is a "Guild Hall" you can have your room off of it too. :)

Course you forgot the "Dice Room" something akin to a drawing room (hell it'll have a bunch of crayons to color in the numbers)
