Hello Everyone,
I'm Luca and I'm 23... I live in Italy.
I've always been a collector since I was a little boy buying mainly action figures, my first collection was Masters of the Universe figures then Turtles, Wrestling characters and others... but my collecting sense was tingling 4 years ago... I forgot to say that I'm a huge Star Wars fan and the day Master Replicas put up for preorder the Luke ROTJ lightsaber I couldn't resist to preorder it, actually I told my parents "could I buy a one and only High priced Star Wars collectible?" they said yes, It was my gift for High School degree... so you know what happend, It had to be a one and only but became the first one of an always growing collection.:) So after that I started to collect Gentle Giant SW busts, statues, maquettes and dioramas... and Attakus SW statues... then one day Sideshow announce the Star Wars premium format line... you all know what happened. Every SW PF EX on preorder... and every 12" EX on preorder... I still have to figure out where to but the Darth Maul 1:1 bust...
Well, that's not all, I've always been into MARVEL, never really started a comic collection (I liked manga) but I've always liked Marvel Heroes (now I collect Ultimate X-Men and Ultimate Spiderman hardcover Graphic Novels), I know about all the Bowen and hard hero stuff out there; Didn't want to start a MARVEL collection until I saw the Sideshow Logan PF... I liked it very much but I haven't bought it when It came out, I was going to but with all Star Wars stuff coming out I couldn't afford two collections... now I can and I'm very happy to have started this new collection, those statues are so damn good you can't go wrong.
For the Lord of the Rings I have on preorder the Lurtz exclusive PF, Frodo PF and Aragorn Exclusive 12" figure... wait list for the Legolas Exclusive.
I think It's all for now.
Happy to be now part of the Sideshow Freaks Forum.
See ya all around and MTFBWY!!!
Luca
