Are you into any other retro hobbies?

[redrumloa]

I'm just getting into it, but I have an interest in antique radios.

It's scary how much of my hobbies match a few others...

Besides retroputing, I also collect way too many video games:

I used to collect antique radios, and will again when I have time, but I also do a lot of shortwave/mediumwave DXing on a handful of radios (Grundig Satellit 750, Realistic DX 390, Yaseu 707GX, some others).

I collect arcade machines, but I don't have much room for them (Altered Beast, Gondomania/Aero Fighters, D&D Tower of Doom/Mag Max, Super Mario Bros/Dr. Mario) so in the garage they sit next to my current hobby:

My '66 Mustang I'm rebuilding.

Yeah..

Vintage Cars (VW`s Air cooled) , MiniBikes, Honda ST70`s (DAX), Z50`s, Monkey-- Vintage Drums Set`s, some old Handheld games, Commodore 8Bit, and obviusly Amiga Stuff..
I see some VW "colleagues" -- Cool!. For that guys... I own VW  Type 3 Notchback 64`, Super Beetle 74`, Rabbit Cabriolet 82` -- and owned many others Type 1 -- Bugs and Beetle.

 I would like to have more, but for all this required many time, money and space.. then for now  I'm just taking what I use and have appropriate space.. Thats important.

Yes, Minimoog-era and also somewhat newer.  In fact, I have a Minitmoog (yes, the 't' belongs there).  It is very rare, but not so sought after, because it is far more limited than the Minimoog and most other Moogs that were produced in larger numbers.

Mmm, sweetness. I've never gotten to play around with real analog synths, but I've had a lot of fun with the G-Force Minimonsta Minimoog VST. Fun stuff.

[XDelusion]

The pre-60's idea of womanhood, parenthood, and being a gentleman.
Atari 8-bit
DOOM Editing
Classic Game Consoles, especially classic Atari, Sega, Nintendo, and Neo-Geo.
Ancient scripture from Yeshua's (Jesus) era on back.
Mysticism (we're all too mental now a days and it shows, so much for the age of reason).
Musick, I go all the way back.
Movies. I don't know what I'd do without Tuner Movie Classics
Pre-history, Yes there is so much that we do not know and should not presume to know.
T classic Star Wars canon. Screw the sequels (except in book form), screw making Force Unleashed part of canon (fun game though) and screw The Clone Wars TV series. Crap crap crap!

Um...

...there's more, much more, but these are my personal highlights.

Big RPG fan here. As my name implies, "my game" was always Runequest, but we play Rolemaster, AD&D (and I agree that the original AD&D is the way to go), Traveller and plenty of others.
 
Big fan of the original Warzone and Warhammer 40K Rogue Trader mini's games too.

Excellent; do you cast around any RPG forums?  I have one, and Knights & Knaves alehouse is another great one, and of course The RPG Site...oh, can't forget Dragonsfoot.

Also: much love for Rolemaster (aka Rulemaster/Rollmaster/Rulebastard ).  Not my first game of choice but I've had much fun with that one too.

Also also: 1e Warhammer Fantasy Role-Play!

I used to hang out at rpg.net and dragonsfoot but its been a while.

WFRP is awesome. I ended up selling my 2nd edition books. It might be better designed than 1st edition but the original book is just so damn inspirational

Old cars myself. Currently working on one as shown in my avatar. Also a late model Jeep, but it's younger than my Amiga.

Everytime my wife complains about my amiga taking up space, I point to people who have old cars as a hobby and she's okay

Jeeps are awesome btw

Isn't it, though?

I asked for a 1e WHFRP book a couple years back for Christmas, and I expected to get a softback Hogshead copy/edition.  I got an original Hardback in near mint condition Games Workshop copy.

The wife went a-browsing and found one on addall used books for $50, figured "Oh it's Christmas, what the heck" and bought.

Very nice My current copy is the Hogshead one. Would love to have the GW version, especially in hardback.

Was always a bigger fan of the 1st edition combat system and the criticals :rtfm:

Yeah, there were some ground rules to set before bringing "the beast" (in the avatar) home to restore. Other items had to go like the restored arcades I had and old PC stuff. The Jeep is a little different. I had it towed home, rebuilt the engine and have since been driving it daily while restoring the rest of it. The Amigas... they stay.

I have a 66 Aero Willys 2600 under (eternal) restoration, and I just bought a 88 Chevrolet Caravan station wagon

Below are the just painted blue Willys, and the silver Caravan. The Willys has a 2.6 liter F-head in line six, with dual carbs, and the Caravan has a  4.1 liter alcohol in line six
