I collect 80's My Little Pony's. No pictures. They are curently in a box since I live really small now. Maybe in the new house I will put them on display... but I have a problem... I HATE pink hahaha. And to make it look pretty I probably have to paint the room pink too..hmmm...

Currently I am also collecting these tiny figurines.

I don't know about the U.S., but over here it was all the rage in the 50's-70's to display them on the wall like this;

I'm planning to do the whole toilet like this, all the walls from top to bottom, covered with glass because nobody has time to dust all these, probably 1000+, figurines.

I also collect 60's-70's Dutch stuff. And sell them. Because I collect more then is needed in the house.

I have an interest in Medieval Arms and Armour and while I don't have pictures of most of it available right now I own around 30 Swords, Axes, Polearms, Flails and other assortment of Medieval paraphernalia. The crowning jewel in my collection though is my mid 13th century transitional armour based on the model 13 in Churburg castle, Italy.

Lorica? I haven't seen any live examples of that. V.cool. I too, own some hats with feathers in them.

Yes, while Roman history isn't really my main focus it's much cheaper and easier to get a hold of. My understanding is that there are only two patterns of Lorica and this is an example of the Corbridge type. Funny how Lorica is what most people think of when they think "Roman Legionary" but surprisingly it was only used during the height of the Roman empire and "Lorica Squamata" (basically maille) was what the Roman empire used for the majority of it's existence.
