Sad. Act.

I'm not really sure as to the purpose of this post... Maybe I'm bragging, maybe I'm just trying to prove just how sad of an act I really am. Whatever I'm doing, this is mainly for my own documentation needs, but I thought I'd share it anyways! ^_____^

I spent some time tonight looking on Deviant Art at people's anime/manga/Final Fantasy collections and... Er... I have so much more stuff than them it's not even funny. It's actually quite terrifying. My entire collection is worth so much money. What have I got? Well...

Now on to the good stuff: Final Fantasy. I've been a fan of this series since I was about 10, so I've had a good 10 years to collect this stuff!

Final Fantasy 12: Revelant Wings
Final Fantasy Chocobo Tales
Final Fantasy Dissidia
Soundtracks for all of the above games, as well as both versions of the Advent Children Movie, both Dissidia games, as well as tribute and cover albums of the songs and all 3 Black Mages albums, totalling about 2000 separate tracks and 3.1 days of listening time (Well, so itunes says).
Strategy guides to Final Fantasy 7, 8, 9, 10, 10-2 and 12.

I have done a recent calculation of my logged time on all the Final Fantasy games over the years (much increased since my purchase of a PSP) and I have worked out that I have spent 3 months and 27 days playing the games. Woops...

Figures (Numbers in brackets regard to which game they are from):

Red XIII and Cait Sith (7)
Zidane Tribal (9)
Cloud, Tifa & Aerith (7)
Squall & Rhinoa (8)
Tidus, Yuna, Rikku & Auron (10)
Ashe, Vaan, Fran, Penelo & Balthier (12)
Rose, Cecil, Kain, Edge & Rydia (4)

Other Stuff:
Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within
Final Fantasy 7: Advent Children
Final Fantasy 7: Advent Children Complete
Final Fantasy 7: Last Order
Giant Sephiroth wall scroll (7)
9 poster
Moogle plush
Tonberry t-shirt
'Leonheart' necklace (8)
10 drinking flask
Keyrings x 10 (the majority of the figures already mentioned)
Red XIII canvas painting (Yes, it was drawn by me but it still counts, damnit!)

There is some more stuff, but my mind has gone totally blank! Calculating how much my entire collection is worth, both anime/manga stuff and the Final Fantasy stuff is difficult - some of the stuff is pretty rare and so is worth a lot more than when I initially bought it. For example, upon release in 1997 it was only about £20 to buy Final Fantasy 7 for the playstation. 7 years later it cost me almost double that, so...

I reckon that everything is worth near enough the £2000 mark. So er, yeah. Hurray me!!
