I've pretty much gone digital with my book collection.

Books by a long shot. I have a huge number of books & have switched to mostly plastics for my figures although I doo have > 6000 metal figs painted.

Heck, I imagine the 128 volume set of the Official Records of the War of the Rebellion by themselves out-weigh my figures. And I do have a lot of figures :)

I was afraid that this poll was going to ask which would I SAVE in a fire, my books or my figures? Now THAT would be a tough choice! Many of each are irreplaceable.

Books by far and I have a lot of figures. Even including inventory it is still books.

One book weighs more than a score of minis, especially plastics.

Books by far.

Books. I have a few 1000.

Books…by a mile!

Books by far. We have so many books we built a library on our house, filled it up, added shelves, filled them up and have books in every room of the house except the bathrooms (only magazines go there).

Downsized by book collection a couple years ago, so it's probably neck and neck.

Not only books, but (vinyl) records.

Books… by a ton.

It used to be books but I'm no longer sure and it would be two much trouble to find out. The last few years new books have been all electronic but the figures still solid.

Lucky if my 2mm and 6mm armies weigh more than 60Kg so books win by far. Skirmish figures are in 3mm so probably have a book or two heavier.

What, even non-hobby-related books?

Yeah, even my lead mountain can't go toe-to-toe with my books.
