My Collection

[tigerham]

That's my very own boring old painted knee version :wink: The unpainted knee version i had i sold to some shmuck on SWCC... :wink: :lol:

What a mug, that thing was a right pile of shite... hope you emptied his wallet!! 8)

:lol: Driving when I get there you nutta, why drive when you can fly unless I take ma Harley but then the misses will have a very sore bum and for all the wrong reasons!

Nice collection mate, i love the display of stormies and the emporer checking his troops out... with the royal guards looking on :lol: That Hammerhead is a lovely item too mate. Great stuff 8)

Cheers mate. As they build up i may have to have two rows. Had to clear a whole other shelf for my Troopers (and friends :wink: ) Looks cool tho. 8)

Looks great. Impressive since April. It will come along in time. Before you know it your collection will be huge. That sure is alot of stormtroopers. Thank you for sharing

 

[PGowdy]

Hey thanks John. It's coming along nicely tho i am starting to run out of room... :?
I have quite a few more Stormies since then too. I was aiming for 50 by the end of the year. I have 41 so far so may even beat it.

My Stormptrooper army teaser...
The task was to get 50 by the end of the year. Not quite at the 50 yet, but i still have a few weeks left and i'm very close. May even end up going over. Will take more pics when complete. (ps. All 3 rows are full it's not camera trickery )

 

[weasel]

Nice, all complete and repro free?

 

[PGowdy]

No not all complete but repro free, of course. When buying i have not worried too much about the weapons as i wanted so many and they display great with or without. I try to buy them as cheap as i can and often in lots of 4 or 5. When doing this you rarely get weapons and if i waited for complete ones it would take 3 times as long and be 3 times as expensive. The most i've paid for 1 is £7 but them i've got several for next to nothing.
There are 45 here and only about 15 or so have weapons. Enough for a front row if needed.

 

[weasel]

You're gonna be bloody easy to buy for in SS!

 

[PGowdy]

lol. I'm not in this one i'm afraid. I got roped into the SWCC one. I wasn't gonna do any as money's tight and buying is a stress as it is but i was guilt-tripped. Might do this one next year.
My 'list' does include loose Stormies tho.

 

[weasel]

And there me fishing out a luke x-wing in case i got you!

 

[PGowdy]

er..yea..i am in it actually...cough...Bollux told me to tell you you got me...cough..and i er, got someone else... Cheers i'll pm my address...
:wink: :lol:

 

[weasel]

:lol: I WAS gona deliver it in person (I wanted to see the look of joy on your face), but I suppose I could just post it.

 

[Imperial nut]

i AM LOVIN IT PETE..

They look minty white i am not too picky about my imperials but i am hoovering em up like you.

I gotta get stands,, mine fall down all the time.. i should have focused my focus :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

my update is due tonight. :mrgreen:

 

[PGowdy]

They're pretty white but not as white as they look in this pic. Many have yellowing limbs and the usual scuff but i try to buy them as good as i can. But to be honest almost none are perfect or C9. Maybe 1 or 2. Having said that i've never paid over £7 for one and i only did that twice.
The stands are a life saver. Before i got them they fell down about 3 times a day. Stormies are **** at standing up on their own! :x But i didn't know they did those small stands i'd only ever seen the massive ones which i think look awful. Got these smaeller ones on ebay and have recently bought a bunch more. They're the nuts.

 

[Imperial nut]

got a link for the stands??

 

[Capetown]

Yeah Pete, Interested too, so link please.

 

[PGowdy]

Yeah i'll check my ebay now. Have just bought a load more off them and they didn't turn up :lol: But they're a good company and they've offered to send more. Not their fault.
Will get the link...
