Do you have any physical memorabilia for your favorite fandoms? Merch, crafts, scrapbooks, print-outs, etc.? What's your favorite?
stellar_dust and I just reduced the collection of Star Wars junk by 1/2 for about the fourth time (which tells you how much we started with!) At this point it's down to basically books, action figures, micro-machines, and a few other old favorites. Which is also how it started, so that's pretty satisfying!

I've been in Doctor Who fandom to a greater or lesser extent since I was a small child - so about thirty years now :S - so I have accumulated quite a collection over the years. Most of the older stuff has gone now - I used to scrapbook newspaper articles about the show when it was off-air, and I had some toy aliens that school friends bought me - but I still have a TARDIS teapot and a Dalek plushie that an ex-girlfriend bought me, and a quote plaque on my wall that my parents got me as a house-warming gift.
(I also have a collection of geeky t-shirts, tie-in books, coffee-table style 'art of x' books and script books...I was a film student so the line between fandom and academic interest is arguably a bit blurry here.)
My favourite though is probably my cuddly Gizmo from the Gremlins movies, he always makes me smile.
