    As a kid the only subscription I ever had was Wee Wisdom. As an adult it was:

    True Story: This was kinda like a True Confession or a compilation of love stories people submitted, and there were several different titles. For a whole year I had a double subscription, 'cos I bought myself one, and then my mom got me a subscription one Christmas!

    Collecting Toys. I still have these. I was so sad when they stopped publishng them. The pics were amazing! I still have them.

    Toy Trader: Didn't keep these b/c it was oversized, printed on newsprint w/ no "cover" like comic books.

    I also briefly got TV Guide and Entertainment Weekly in the early 90s, but only for a year.

      Right now, I only have 2 subscriptions after canceling my recent one to National Geographic. I've been getting Entertainment Weekly for a number of years and it's pretty hit or miss for me. A recent one I subscribed to is Family Handyman, which I really enjoy a lot.

      I know there are a number of folks who don't care for print magazines. In the case of Family Handyman, I don't think I'd have it any other way except print. When there are schematics for a plan, I like having them there, all printed out, so I can follow along and/or adapt them.

        I had a subscription to Toy Shop and one for Nintendo Power. Heck I signed up for the second when they gave away the copies of Dragon Warrior I. The only mag I still get is gameinformer and that comes with my Pro Membership with Game Stop.

          In the past. Lees action figure and toys review, tomarts, toyshop and Toyfare.
          A constant to this day is automobile. Can't see giving that up. For some reason I've saved 29 years of issues.

                    Hmmm...let me think here....
                    Comic Buyer's Guide
                    Toy Shop
                    Tomart's Actoion Figure
                    Lee's
                    Wizard
                    Toyfare
                    Several comic subscriptions including all the Superman/Batman books when they ran a package deal in the mid 90s
                    Entertainment Weekly
                    Back Issue (stills subscribed)

                    Probably missed a few off the top of my head.
