My collection to share, a long road back

[stormcab]

Blood-y-heck, that was a well kept secret. That surely goes near the top of one of the best collections on here?

 

[winnebago88]

Unbelievable collection, had to look over the pictures a few times to take it all in.

 

[Cocobean]

Thank you robstyley I just guess I'm like everyone always impressed by other people's collections and up until I read a few comments didn't realise the impact mine had I guess that's an insecurity after having to start again And Thank you Steve obi wan I appreciate it.

 

[Cocobean]

Wow thank you stormcab that's an amazing statement and means a lot to me

Winnebago88 thank you for taking the time to look

 

[Kayor]

Wow, what an amazing collection! I love the way you displayed your collection, and all those boxes look to be in great condition.
I especially love the yoda's in front of the dagobah playset and those Luke jedi's waving their sabers.
Awesome, thanks for sharing!

 

[Cocobean]

Thank you Kayor for your kind words ideally I'd love to have all relevant figures Infront of the relevant vehicles playsets etc but I just don't have the room to do it so I do like the yoda one most if not all boxes bar maybe 2 are in really great condition and probably just under half of the collection are still factory sealed thank you for taking the time to view my collection

When someone says "I've not got the budget..nor the space" you kind of expect to see a picture of an open desk drawer containing 3 beater Stormies and a Yoda with only one ear..not an amazing collection like that :shock:

Really cool! Like your display/collection room too

 

[rhyfelyser]

Awesome collection Coco. Love how compact you displayed your collection.

 

[Cocobean]

Thank you Joe I probably have got a yoda somewhere stored away with 1 ear ha but all my beater figures went to crazy bidders on eBay lol

Thanks rhyfelyser I have no choice but to compact it its in my living room haha it's just a small place so need to maximise it I appreciate your kind words

 

[itfciain]

Love the pictures mate and glad you could put the clam shells to good use

 

[Cocobean]

Thank you for those Iain they were perfect although pushing pins into a wall that many times wasn't :wink:

 

[maxf]

Thank you for those Iain they were perfect although pushing pins into a wall that many times wasn't :wink:

I thought they were laying on a table/floor - you must have thumbs like hammers now!

Great collection - how long has that taken you to put together?

 

[Cazza]

Very, very nice collection you've got there mate! :shock: Fantastic boxed items (I'm a complete sucker for that Palitoy logo) and I like the way you've added loose figures in with them- really effective 8)

 

[Cocobean]

Hi maxf thank you and yeah my thumbs are non existent after pushing those pins into the wall but I have a small place so nowhere really else to put them yet wanted to have them displayed as for timescale to be honest I've collected on and off for years however my whole collection was stolen so I had to start again from scratch and to be honest it took me years to star again as I couldn't bring myself to do it but it's took me around 7 months to get my collection back so now I can relax again and wait for the pieces I want now I have regained my collection so to speak

 

[Cocobean]

Thank you cazza it actually wasn't intentional to mix figures in with boxed items it started as a space saver hence why the correct figures arnt really with their correct sets so I was concerned it may look a little un organised but I don't really have a choice ha so glad it looks effective I can't bare to push another pin in the wall :lol:

I've actually added another vehicle today a boxed ewok battle wagon and around 4 ledi figures onto the wall (pins were already there :wink: )

 

[Hawkeye]

This is an amazing collection that truly inspires me to start. Out of interest (and for some research) how much did that C-3PO carry case cost you?

Thanks,
Hawkeye.

 

[Cocobean]

Thank you Hawkeye I would absolutely get started you will become addicted very quickly and everyone is here to help each other Star Wars in any format is a great thing to be involved in as for the c3po carry case it's sealed unused i can't remember what I paid for it but It certainly wasn't crazy money I got a bargain

 

[Grant]

Holy **** Batman. Sweet collection right here... 8)

 

[Cocobean]

Haha thanks grant

 

[Woolyniner]

Amazing collection, I really like the way you mix the vehicle boxes with the array of figures too.

 

[Cocobean]

Thank you woolyniner

 

[Dublinjeff]

Beautiful collection there....loving all the loose variants... 8)

 

[Cocobean]

Thank you dublinjeff i never intended there to be as many it just kind of got a hold of me ha

 

[Andyclarke]

Wow, that is fantastic and I have to say a little greedy with the multiples!!

Superb stuff and great pics.

 

[Cocobean]

Thanks andyclarke I never intended to collect variants however I can't afford to collect all figures on MOC so decided to create the best loose collection I could

 

[benny100]

What a great display! I've never seen the dagobah play set with Jedi backpack sticker on too, really nice to see it all

 

[Cocobean]

Thanx benny100 I just had the more common Kenner version but was offered this one with back pack etc MISB although it's slightly newer only by months ha the fact it's sealed made my mind up to replace my other one with it

 

[StarWarsFan]

[Cocobean]
