DARKWIND Posted August 8, 2007 Posted August 8, 2007 Cute. Cool fully intergrated AI Fast Packs!!! What will they think of next????
miriya Posted August 8, 2007 Posted August 8, 2007 So I have finally set up my collection, at work. When I get a nicer place I will get a sleeker cabinet and display them more elegantly with hopefully more unique Valks, figures and other toys..... I hope you enjoy the pics.
Macross73 Posted August 8, 2007 Posted August 8, 2007 Miriya is that a custom CMs next to fokker drawing a blank on her name at the moment.
baronv Posted August 8, 2007 Posted August 8, 2007 I think your referring to the Banpresto Claudia Grant figure?
miriya Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 Miriya is that a custom CMs next to fokker drawing a blank on her name at the moment. If you are not referring to the Banpresto Claudia, then yes, the other Shammy has a flower girl head and twisted wrists!
sqidd Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 Wow! Miriya, very, very cool. Can you come over to my house and set my stuff up?
mojacko Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 wow....great stuff!!! nice collection of babes Miriya!!!
miriya Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 Wow! Miriya, very, very cool. Can you come over to my house and set my stuff up? Hey, thanks. I would love to but I am in California. If you want to buy me a ticket to MI then I am game!
bigkid24 Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 Jin Kune Do - > Your toys have luxurious accomodations. One toy per shelf for the most part. I wish I had space for that.
miriya Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 wow....great stuff!!! nice collection of babes Miriya!!! Thanks. Valks, Wine and Women! If I only had more money and more space!!!
Vermillion21 Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 Nice pics of your collections guys - thanks for sharing!
sqidd Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 As I was sitting here cropping my shots and uploading them on to my site all I could think was how lame my collection is. It looks cool while I am sitting here, but compared to some of the pictures in this thread......... Macross stuff (ignore the Cyclone). I only found these about a month ago. I have about ten more on the way. I am going to need to put something cooler than these shelves up though.
sqidd Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 Do you have a special rider on your homeowners for all of this? Thats got to be what? $25K+
sqidd Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 Oh, yeah. One more thing. SPREAD OUT! One well placed shot by the bad guys and we are doomed!!!!

Dude, you have a nice collection ... consider yourself lucky that you aren't ADDICTED ..... yet!! :lol: And 10 more on the way? 10 more what???
sqidd Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 (edited) Dude, you have a nice collection ... consider yourself lucky that you aren't ADDICTED ..... yet!! :lol: And 10 more on the way? 10 more what??? Thanks.....but I am afraid I am an addict On the way I have: 2 YF-11's that I purchased from a board member (thanks) 2 YF-21's that I purchsed from a board member (thanks) 1 Super Poseable Cannon Fodder (look, I'm catching on to the lingo ) 1 Yamoto Konig Monster 1/100 1 set (6) of the Chara Works 1/144 VF-1's (those little suckers are cool!) 1 SDF-1 1/5000 scale by Wave 1 Zentraedi Tactical Battle Pod by Matchbox 1 Zentraedi Officers Battle Pod by Matchbox 1 VE-1 Elintseeker Yamoto I have my eye on a couple of YF-19A's in the blue "game" color right now. I need a YF-21 and a YF-11 with fast packs also. I wish there were more quality "Bad Guy" stuff out there. If Yamoto did some of the Zentraedi stuff I can't imagine it would be anything but outstanding. Maybe even some Zentraedi stuff in Revlotech so when the VF-1's come out you could set up all sorts of cool little battles! See, I am screwed!!! Edited August 12, 2007 by sqidd
sqidd Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 so why not get a 1/60 miria? I am watching that one right now
miriya Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 Sqidd, I think you have a nice collection too. The bottom shelf looks great! I personally like when the valks are spread out more with space because then you can see each one individually. If I had more space I would do that too but I have to fit all my figures in one place so that I can hide them somewhat hostile forces! Maybe try some different camera angles to make your collection look better in the photographs. Like if you zoom in on one at an angle so that the others are in the background but out of focus that is always a cool effect. Or you could use a macro lens and get some close ups of some of your favorite details of the valks. I look forward to seeing more photos of your collection once the new additions arrive.
Golden Arms Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 (edited) Sqidd, Your off to a great start. Add an artbook or two. They're usually pretty cheap, easy to find and add another dimension to your collection. When I show my coworkers my Tenjin artbook or the Kazutaka artbook, my friends see why I'm into the stuff that I'm into. The CMS figures also look good as well. They're plentiful, cheap, and you can usually get the ones that you really want rather easily. Another suggestion is the Paul Champagne dvd boxes. I own two and they look absolutely stunning. I'd like to get the other two just to complete the set. I wish he made boxes for GITS. Edited August 12, 2007 by Golden Arms
Guest sh002 Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 (edited) my extra 1/72's Edited August 12, 2007 by sh002
elintseeker Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 my extra 1/72's wow! Hi complete model, hard to find nowdays i like vintage

Golden Arms Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 Any pics of what these DVD covers look like? http://www.designpaulchampagne.com/macross.html I have the 1st (Mac +) and the 3rd (SDF Macross) boxes.

ruskiiVFaussie Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 (edited) I've got myself this SDF Mikimoto box as well. Pricey they may be but they are made tough. Metal (some type of metal?) boxes with this much attention to detail are a must have. I fit my whole collection in here, including my M7 Box sets. But not my SDF dvd set.

Agent-GHQ Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 New member on board to my collection; addition to Macross. Got them this weekend!

I'm going to do something here soon. I just need to figure out what. It will come to me eventually if I just let it come. I think I am going to go for a complete “Do Over” on the shelf situation. I think I am going to go for something out of stainless steel or aluminum….or both. Maybe some heated (it turns pink and blue) titanium for uprights and accents. I pretty good with the whole metal forming thing and my best friend has an entire machine shop that I have the run of. I’m thinking a very industrial look that is a little rough around the edges (battle damage) and unfinished in spots would be cool.
