110 film cameras (Remember 110 film? It was popular in the 1970s despite its graininess, and yes it is still made). One of my more unusual ones is a camera branded with the "Kool-Aid" drink, which actually takes relatively decent photos.
CD-i games. Though remembered as a games console, CD-i was intended to be a general purpose multimedia player, which could be used for educational software, watching films, playing karaoke discs, playing games, and other purposes. It was introduced in 1991 and discontinued in 1997, meaning it had a much longer lifespan than many people think (some sources wrongly state it was introduced in 1993).
Soviet cameras. Surprisingly easy to get a hold of, and many of them take film formats still made.

Can't find a developing 110 reel for my tank, so have to take them to be developed... Nice camera.

I'm surprised they still make film for them. I was also surprised to discover they still make film for instamaic/poloroid cameras.

Not something I have several of, but I insisted my mother did not throw away her old 1990s food mixer. It's very nostalgic to me.

No so weird but action figures. I've stoped for about a year due to concerns about storage space but I have about 250 or more. Probably more. Marvel Legends and TMNT. A few Gi Joes, MOTU and Transformers.

I keep my old calendars.
I have a number of CRT TV sets I keep for retrogaming purposes (some old game consoles look better on CRT TV sets).
I have several of those infamous "soundalike" records of the 1960s/1970s.
I often keep the box when I buy a new game console.
I have several of those old "brick games" (with Tetris and other simple games) from the early 2000s.
