Hi my name is Matt and i'm 31 and from London but also spend a lot of time in the US. I'm relatively new to the boards and high end figure collecting. I had always appreciated Sideshows statues but the prices had always put me off. Then the J. Scott Campbell collection was announced and i knew i had to buy those as he's been one of my favorite artists since his Gen 13 days.
Unfortunately it didn't end there. At SDCC Hasbro released the Boba Fett 6" as an exclusive. I was looking at reviews and bought it for a ridiculous price but then i made a mistake of clicking on another review for the Sideshow Boba Fett and i was amazed at the detail and quality of the Sixth Scale line. I bought both the Medicom and Sideshow Boba Fett's and that only led to discovering more and more amazing figures i had to PO and now i'm just addicted.
Outside of high end collectables i also collect mint on card toys. Star Wars, Marvel and Transformers Masterpiece. But my main lifelong passion has always been comics. High grade comics from the Silver Age right through to the Modern Age. The best books in my collection are very high grade CGC copies of Hulk 181, Amazing Spider-Man Annual 1, Amazing Spider-Man 16, 19, 50 and X-Men 12, Batman 227 (my favorite cover of all time) and 232, Silver Surfer 4 to name just a few.
I look forward to getting to know more of you while i build my Sideshow collection.
