max Posted October 15, 2004 Posted October 15, 2004 I remember a while back, someone put a picture up of a guy who had a wall of boxed original Bandai and Takatoku valks on shelves. If my memory serves me correctly, it was about a few boxes high, a few boxes deep, and all the way across the image. It must have been about 80 valks. I think he was slowly auctioning his collection before the rereleases hit. Does anyone know the link to the picture? Or if you have an equally impressive image of your own wall of boxed valks, I'd be interested in seeing some pics. Quote
Mechamaniac Posted October 15, 2004 Posted October 15, 2004 (edited) That would have been Jerry Tsai of VF1X.com. Unfortunately, Jerry closed his site, but some of the pics of his Valks can be found here.... http://www.menet.umn.edu/~ngo/jtsai_collection_1.html Another one that is almost as impressive (though not as many duplicates) is Gerry from Robozone.com.

VALKYRIE-EXCHANGE.COM Posted October 15, 2004 Posted October 15, 2004 I think he's referring to another collector up in the SF Bay Area. He's got a really large collection of vintage Valks. He's been slowly selling off stuff on eBAY over the past few years. I believe his user id is santoro5000. Quote
xstoys Posted October 15, 2004 Posted October 15, 2004 (edited) Just for kicks ... here's an older pic of some of my stuff. Believe it or not, this is just the tip of the iceberg. Edited October 15, 2004 by xstoys Quote

Solscud007 Posted October 15, 2004 Posted October 15, 2004 Yeah that truly is the tip of the iceberg. Actually that is like a snowcone sitting on the tip of the iceberg. haha Quote
BoBe-Patt Posted October 15, 2004 Posted October 15, 2004 Just for kicks ... here an older pic of some of my stuff. Believe it or not, this is just the tip of the iceberg. wow!! Tony, that's the first time I've seen you post your semi collection at home. So that's what I've been missing out on huh? Quote
Jasonc Posted October 16, 2004 Posted October 16, 2004 Might as well make this the official picture thread for collections. Maybe I should take pics of mine this weekend. Keep sending them in. Quote
TheLoneWolf Posted October 16, 2004 Posted October 16, 2004 I think he's referring to another collector up in the SF Bay Area. He's got a really large collection of vintage Valks. He's been slowly selling off stuff on eBAY over the past few years. I believe his user id is santoro5000. Wasn't his name Loshan or something? I remember that he used to try to sell his Valkyries for astronomical prices back in the day. I'll bet he's one of the few people pissed off by the Bandai reissues and Yamatos. Quote

I've also heard a few people refer to his collection as "Valkyrie Heaven." I also live in the Bay Area and have spoken to him a few times. Actually, I have a picture of his collection but the error message keeps telling me that I can't upload this particular file. I'll get it sorted out to post for ya. Quote
Panzer Posted October 16, 2004 Posted October 16, 2004 please do, i'd like to see too. nothing like a little valkporn to out you in a good mood. Quote
chowyunskinny Posted October 16, 2004 Posted October 16, 2004 Does anyone know the link to the picture? is this the one you were referring to? Quote

EXO Posted October 16, 2004 Posted October 16, 2004 Does anyone know the link to the picture? is this the one you were referring to? Well I'm just... There's no... how... but... This can't be... Quote
vt102 Posted October 16, 2004 Posted October 16, 2004 Does anyone know the link to the picture? is this the one you were referring to? That is the one. Wasn't that person's ebay user id Loshu? Quote
chowyunskinny Posted October 16, 2004 Posted October 16, 2004 Yeah I saved that picture from the thread in the old forums. I keep in a directory on my computer called "Insane Collections" It helps me to feel not so bad about how much I've spent on my collection. That dude has some serious F.U.M. (F@CK U Money) Quote
Max Jenius Posted October 16, 2004 Posted October 16, 2004 That's Greg Lane's collection I think... glane21 on the boards IIRC... Quote
Valkfan Posted October 16, 2004 Posted October 16, 2004 That is the one. Wasn't that person's ebay user id Loshu? Loshu93 if my memory serves me correctly. Come to think of it, I still have his phone number. Maybe I'll give him a call and see if he still has some of that inventory. Actually, I'm looking for a few pieces of vintage armor that he probably has. Quote
BoBe-Patt Posted October 16, 2004 Posted October 16, 2004 (edited) That's Greg Lane's collection I think... glane21 on the boards IIRC... this is glane21's collection? Never knew..... Edited October 16, 2004 by BoBe-Patt Quote
