I know some of you collect gaming related items as I do, so I was wondering what the weirdest piece you have in your collection is?

I will start with my totally useless, but very obscure SETTLERS IV pasta shapes...
Needless to say I wont be eating them

I've got a metal Space Invader on a pin:

I don't know if it's rare, or where I got it from.

No Idea. I suppose it could have been. Have you got one too?

I think I got it in the 80's.

Seeing the picture rung some bells
My memories not what it used to be!

Yes, I've seen the Pin somewhere before - I think it was from the cober of a magazine.

My retro related items include:

Dreamcast bedside clock
Die Hard first aid kit
Kage stuffed toy
A Japapnese RPG pocket watch (can't remember what game)

I've got some bits n bobs too somewhere

The Space Invaders pin came with a comic, not a magazine -- I can't remember the comic, even tho I bought two copies to get two pins! I now have neither...

I have a set of Britains 'Space Rangers' that Hewson gave away at trade shows to promote 'Astroclone'. I think they are probably the strangest thing I ever got as other than that it's mainly mugs and T-shirts that I seem to have acquired. SCi did give away a nice window sticker to promote Carmageddon though 'So many pedestrians, so little time' but I never had the nerve to put it in the car

Got a rare Ocean "Number 1" keyring, given out to independent shopkeepers and distributors to mark Ocean being named top software house (in terms of sales) back in the late 1980's...

Was it Eagle comic?Seems to ring more bells...

I used to get the 1980s Eagle, so it could've been.
