In no particular order :
- a closet full of Star Trek VHS
- An Amstrad CPC 464 (model that runs with audio tapes) in working conditions, with dozens of games for it
- A nes, Snes, Megadrive, Game Boy and Atari Lynx all in working condition
- Around 400 comic books
- Around 1000 mangas (half of it belonging to my girlfriend)
- Over 100 console games
- Hundreds of PC games
- 4 Pcs in the house (with only two people living in it...)
- Around 200 anime DVD
- A glass display full of DC character lead figurines, Saint seiya,Dragon ball Z and homestar runner figurines
But the thing that makes me feel TOO nerdy, is the PC collector edition of Alone in the Dark, that I bought while already owning the XBOX360 version of the game, for the sole purpose of having the figurine and OST.

I guess it would be the video game posters on my wall. And pokemon T shirts I like to wear under my sweaters.

20,000 points of fully painted and based Warhammer Space Marines (One full company, half a first company, 50 bikes, 10 landspeeders, multiple tanks including 4 land raiders, HQ choices for any situation. Well on my way to building my chapter and in the process of writing my own codex)
My extensively huge collection of RPG manuals
The complete set of Star Trek CCG cards (First edition)
The Complete set of Star Wars CCG cards (First edition)
More Magic Cards than I can shake a stick at.
My collection of incredibly complicated board games.
My Book Collection
Stupid large collection of Star Wars Minis
Large collection of Heroscape stuff.

I prefer to label myself a geek, as where I come from geek means you have social skills. However if nerd is the term used here, then I am a full card carrying nerd.

Complete set of first generation Pokemon which will hopefully pay off all of my university fees - ha - and... Is a Trogdor hoody a nerdy thing?

EDIT: And the collector's Edition of Guild Wars: Nightfall which was actually cheaper than the normal version which is the only reason I have it. I did insist on putting all of the poster on my wall though....

my old 40K stuff (posters, books and little dudes)?
My custom built PC?
Or the massive pile of games for said PC?
Sir, I salute you! I get the feeling we PC gamers are few and fair between these days!
We seem to get a good showing on the escapist (or maybe we're just loud). And I like boxes. I recently bought a second copy of Morrowind because it was in a nicer box. It was a really nice box though. Had a thick card sleeve, fold out case thing, big manual and a map/poster.

In no particular order (and I am guessing you don't refer to our consoles or PCs)
5000 comics, most of them from Superman
Several Absolute Editions
fifty mangas
over 70 fantasy books
a large collection of low budget movies
several figurines, manga and western characters
several Anime DVD
A small collection of fossils that includes a dinosaur tooth
A large collection of science books

I am sure that I am forgetting things

My Chemistry and Biochemistry books, collection of Doctor Who DVD's (I have most of the old episodes), gaming figurines and posters, my spiderman and batman posters. My favourite thing is my Dawn of the dead t-shirt. My brother has a remote control Dalek which I want so badly.

Collection of comic book t-shirts (which is more of a hipster thing because I don't really like comic books).
Before I started reading proper literature (burn!) I had amassed quite a large fantasy collection, but I suppose my collection of challenging French literature and poetry is somewhat nerdy.

Stormtrooper replica helmet and cardboard cut-out are the most nerdiest things i have. I have more nerdy things, but i think those are the nerdiest.

Over 15 thousand sorted, categorized, and alphabetized Magic cards.

Also a box set of Firefly with the actor's autographs on each disk cover (except for Nathon Fillion, though that will be gotten eventually)

I keep a collection of games and many old systems (Atari 2600, NES, SNES, Genesis, Nomad, Saturn, N64, PS1, PS2, Dreamcast, Gamecube, DS, Gameboy Advance SP, 360, Wii, PS3). However the really nerdy thing is I even kept some of the original boxes.

Thinking about the collection only makes me sad in one instance: light gun games don't work with newer TVs. ... I miss you, Virtua Cop. ;_;

Whether its a collector's edition Star-Trek bottle opner or a simple Lightsaber
Lets hear about your Nerdiest thing you own

Mine is a Game boy micro special edition which has the lay-out of a NES
My Warhammer 40,000 tabletop army. Space Marines FTW!
What chapter? I have blood angels.
They're a custom chapter by the name of Death Heralds. Suppossed to be the remnants of the second legion, whose primarch turned to chaos (think dark angels, only the imperim side doesn't have the primarch) they beat him but he turns into a daemon prince of Tzeench, so the Death Heralds swear to kill their primarch even though they can only banish him.

Due to a property that amade their gene seed hardened against warp energy, the Death Heralds are utilized by the Inquisition to go into the eye of terror to assasinate enemy chaos lords, disrupt attacks, and generally kill every chaos-tainted individual in the Eye of Terror.

They have black armor, red shoulder pads, gold trim, and metal accents.

Of course, I pale in comparison to my housemate, if he'd stop painting Warhammer minis and get his ass onto the forum.
He's too lazy painting 40k minis to sign up to these forums.

Here's his lego falcon:



And a tiny part of his Star Wars themed 40k army:



I should also point out that he's painting an entire chapter of Space Marines. Yep.
Wow. That Spaceship is bloody HUUUUUGE i want one:3
