I have a few of the large ones but I don't have the room to display more than one (I've got the Vice City standee in my game room). The oldest one I have is from the original Donkey Kong Country, it's a huge DK standee.
I've got dozens and dozens of the countertop-style ones. So many that I've started giving them away. Some of my favorites: the original HALO, Final Fantasy Crystal (in that motorized spinny thing), the GBA NES Classics with the sound button, and the F-Zero GC version with the flashing runway lights.

I really like standee's and promo things, the ideal "decorative" for your game room..
I have an big oversized ninja gaiden box, a big nes classics cube and a viewtiful joe counter-display.

I also collect standees to a certain degree. The oldest ones I have are Blasto and Parasite Eve, both tall floor stands that are stored away. I've also got the 'Jill' portion of the massive Resident Evil 3 one that resides behind my desk. More recently, I have the following: Gran Turismo 3 (stored), Oni (displayed), Mega Man Network Transmission (stored), Resident Evil Dead Aim (stored), Sonic Heroes (displayed), Enter The Matrix (displayed) and Tekken 4 (displayed). I also have the Pac Man portion of the Pac Man World 2 standee; he hangs on the wall above my TV and winks at everyone.
As far as counter cards go, I have: Legend of Dragoon, Gran Turismo 2, Cool Boarders 3, Chu Chu Rocket!, Mario vs. Donkey Kong, F-Zero GX, GBA NES Classics w/ sound, Xbox Music Mixer coaster dispenser (with coasters!) and Grabbed by the Ghoulies.
Don't even get me started on posters. Yeesh.

Got a few others too...all stashed away and I don't remember what tho.
Also have a few other items like that:
Cardboard Resident Evil 2 cutouts of the characters and enemies (have adhesive backings, unused)

Currently looking for the following counter standees:

LOL, I can see it just fine. Anyways, it's the standee for Legend Of Zelda: Wind Waker. Unfortunately it's stashed away now because I have no room. My record collection took it's place.

I have a Red Dead Revolver standee - it's not in the best shape in the world after travelling nearly 900 miles to ECGX and back.
I mostly collect posters though:
Contra: Shattered Soldier (Japanese)
Super Mario Sunshine (Japanese)
Silent Hill 4 (Japanese)
Viewtiful Joe
Metroid Zero Mission
etc.
Posters don't take up floor space, so that makes me happy.
