Want an 'unusual' object

Post Reply New Topic

Does anyone ever desire an unusual object? I'd like a human skull as an ornament to remind me that things don't last etc and to go all hamlet with it lol, I'd also like a crossbow, a genuine katana sword, a faberge egg, a quill....lots of things. What would you like?

I always wanted the skeleton of a horse.

I collect dead ants.

I collect RC car engines.

Even when I was a kid, before I really got into RC, I desperately wanted an rc airplane engine I saw in a magazine even though I didn't want a plane to put it in.

I'm a sword collector (hobby) so I relate with the katana thing (I have one though it's more for show than anything, it is live however).

Does a fog machine count as an unusual object? lol

Hmm... I've never thought of those things as being weird to want... well maybe the human skull (I do want one). I already have a collection of really nice Japanese blades, among many other weapons (even a crossbow!).
I suppose my unusual objects could be bones and fur, and watch parts, all put together.

i have a collection of various weird objects already, i can't think of any more i'd like.

Bagpipes

on second thought, i have long desired a sub-contrabass baroque recorder-

Not an object, but I really want a pet Brazilian short-tailed opossum.

Though I tend to be a collector of unusual items, I've yet to procure:
+ A 40mm Bofors cannon
+ A mummy (a mummified hand will do as well)
+ A car that makes it appear you are driving in the wrong lane
+ Gesture technology displays and the Spatial Operating Environment (featured in the movie Minority Report)

In the woods i had found a whole bunch of bones so i took them home after burning some sage around the area i found them.

I made some really neat windchimes out of the bones, 2 different sets of windchimes.

I want to get a nice tanto sword for my weapons collection.
My neighbor gave me a deer skull yet it broke a little after i soaked it in bleach too long.
Originally i buried it (let the bugs do their job to get to the skull) then another neighbor complained of the smell of my dead things
I really didn't want to offend the neighbors i have a bad sense of smell. So anyhow i need to repair what i can of the skull and decorate it.

I collect and make objects related to Folk Magic (Hex-mirrors, Poppets, Wands, Spirit jars, etc).

I'm sure there are quite a few unusual objects that I have desired at one time or another, but I can't think of them at the moment, so I'm just gonna say I want a standee of Wreck-It Ralph...or of John C. Reilly, either one.

Even though I am a woman, I have been collecting diecast backhoe loaders models because I love them. I also started collecting door closers a little over a half year ago. I find them fascinating, but that is about all. Don't have the same feeling for them as I do my diecast backhoe loaders models.

Pet American buffalo.
