I know that Mark collects Stitch merchandise, and I though it'd be interesting to see if anyone else has collections.
I have 40 rubber ducks, my favourites either being

or
 
I have a small collection on 1:18th scale car models, I have 7, Ferrari 333SP, Ferrari Enzo, Ford GT Concept, 2008 Corvette C6, 1969 Corvette C3, 1957 Corvette C1, Military Humvee.
 
I've got collections of all sorts of things:

-Stuffed animals from hotel/casinos
-Trophies I've won for various things over the years
-Little nick nacks I've gotten from gas stations
-Shot glasses
 
I collect a few things:

- Entrance tickets (gigs, parks and of course, the cinema)
- DVDs/Blu-rays
- Shot glasses (mainly a park thing)
 
Packs of cards. I get them wherever I go, and occasionally get old packs. They're a great souvenir. Must be about 30 packs now.
 
^ Same, but when I went to Vegas for a week, I bought the special 'used in casinos' cards. I have about 40 packs from 40 different casinos, open casinos and destroyed ones...they're awesome!
 
I have a lot of Lego and Knex that I collected as a child and is now on display in a spare room with all my models and things. I have built railways and recreated battlefield scences with model trains/tanks etc.

I am a keep musician and have an ever growing collection of bass guitars. My latest being a 2009 American Fender Jazz that was used by Elbow in 2008.
 
I've always wanted to collect something, so have started collecting pin badges because I need them for my uniform at work anyway. I've got about 20 at the moment but have managed to pick up 1 at every park I've visited since I began collecting properly =]
 
I'd like to start collecting camera's, I've got 8 at the moment, they don't need to be working (but it be nice if they did). In that I have Nikon D70s (broken), D90, F65. Canon A1 (x2), Kodak Folding Brownie no.2, Pentax 67, Olympus Trip. I'd love to collect more, nearly bought a Canon AE-1 last night.
I have every publication of the photographer Simon Roberts work, Motherland (signed), We English and his Election Project 'newspaper' which is very rare as only 1000 were printed when it was exhibited at Portcullis House.
 
Add manga to that now, and a couple more video games and a bit of Anime. OH YEAH, VG/comic book related tshirts and also weird plushies, I has totoro and Cthulhu bitches.
 
Fridge Magnets... only, they they're not on my fridge. I have a cast iron fireplace (without any kind of actual 'fire' in it) so they live on there. Although, I've now pretty much run out of room, so some might have to end up on the fridge. Mostly park/attraction ones, but a few are from cities/countries or were advertising freebies. I've got a Beachy Head one sat here in its bag waiting for me to find it a home. I've got about 55 in total. I'll take a photo at some point.

I'm gutted actually. When I was a kid I collected badges. I must've had a couple of hundred (I remember there being a 5L Ice Cream tub that was FULL of them). I KNOW I had some old park ones (as an absolute minimum I remember there being some Chessie ones, but there must've been more). They'd have all been from the late 80's/early 90s. I'm pretty sure mum threw them out/gave them away/boot faired them when I was about 10. I kinda hope I imagined that, and they're still sat in their Ice Cream tub in the loft next to my Master System II and my Commodore 64... but I doubt it. Some of them would probably be worth a quid or two on eBay by now.
