A Small Start to My Collection

[Manticore72c]

Hi Guys..


I'm new to the 12 inch collecting scene after many years of Star Wars toy collecting. It's funny how your tastes change. I'm really liking the Sidehow lines and thinking of adding Master Replica items to my list.

I'm in the process of renovating our rooms and will be displaying my collection in detolfs. So I've kept most of my current collection boxed.
(I know it annoys some guys to keep them boxes , but dont want to have them on display till my rooms are done.)

But thought I'd share what I have so far , opened and sealed.

I apologise for my poor camera skills and quality of pics.

Cheers,
Chad.

Couple Extra Pics.
Poor quality I know and I need to practise my posing skills , but
I'm still learning so bare with me lol..

I'm looking for a reddish Plaid shirt for George Lucas there, so the leather jacket will do for now.

I might try later to get him repainted by someone talented , I think he may have the potential
to look a bit better.

A few Hasbro's I have. (Bad Yoda impersonation lol)

I know Leia is looking out the packaging window , don't panic , she will be free very soon.

I'm wanting to Convert the At-At Driver and Stormtrooper figures I have.
So I will do some reserch on here first .. Thanks in advance guys.

Nice collection. It maybe small in your eyes but it's bigger than mine.

Very Cool Collection Manicore, Never seen a George Lucas fig before now, Nice and the Fan Club Briefcase made me want to join just to get the Blaster

Thanks guys for your comments.

I'm hoping to display them better soon , as well as update our camera!

I originally had George Lucas with a case full of cash , but removed half of it and replaced it with what's in there now. lol

Really nice collection man. You gotta start somewhere and you've done great so far.

A couple of new figures that arrived today.

I've been collecting Star Wars Autographs for the past few years, writting letters to the Actors etc. Nice little side hobby I enjoy.

While I like Autographed photo's , I try to get some of them dedicated to myself or family name etc by the Actor, I know it makes them not as valuable to do this , but I do not intend to sell them. (Plus I collect in multiples)

Nice work on getting the signatures.

Thanks !

I'm hopping to display them eventually behind my Sideshow collection on each shelf.

Opened up Jabba to have a better look , He's free ! ...lol

Looks pretty lonely by himself , I need to buy a throne fast !
(If I can find one).

Ahh well , at least he's got that little frog thing to keep him company.

What rifle does your Side Show Stormtrooper have ? And where did you get it.

 

[Manticore72c]

If this is the one you mean it is an Action Mans 40th Anniversary
Long Range Desert Group Lewis Gun with Drum and BiPod.

I got it from Ebay.

It really needs some modifications , paint and weathering to make it
look better.
