Other Vintage Collections

[UKS]

I've been listening for the last year to a Wrestling figure podcast - The Major Wrestling Figure podcast, hosted by WWE wrestlers, Zack Ryder and Kurt Hawkins... even though I don't watch modern wrestling and I have never collected Wrestling figures....

Till now.

https://www.facebook.com/groups/ToysOfTatooineActionPlastics have discovered a huge WWF figure find.

..And I've bought one of every single type available. :-/

I'll get some photos up when they come in!

Finally finished my run of Sportstars Spurs players. It's taken me a couple of years to find the last two I needed (Paul Stewart and Paul Walsh) but they were all under £20 each, nice not collecting Star Wars sometimes

I remember these kind of figures. I hope there's a Glenn Hoddle in there otherwise it's all wrong :!: 8)

After a lot of fiddly work and a bit of swearing! Managed to assemble an all original card that displays much better now have a battle armour Skeletor who need s the same attention next

Here is the finished piece

Nice collection you have going there Michael, good work on the reseals they look great. Also I see you finally tracked down the He-Man weapon set. :wink:

 

[grinchy]

Wow subzero, that's a lot of vintage goodies, lots of cool stuff there, thanks for sharing

 

[Michael Sith]

Yep got the weapons eventually

Some class pieces in your collection Subzero, love the MOTU and turtles 8)

Great to see you posting bud

One of my most random buys lately, but couldn't resist it!

 

[Ruby2511]

This is my current collection now which is pretty much complete in terms of what iv'e been trying to track down, i'm just after a couple of small pieces and it's finished.

These are all childhood pieces that iv'e acquired over the past several years, along with my now modest and reduced SW figure collection.

Really great collection you have there, just love seeing all these different toy lines all together and everything you have looks to be in mint condition.

Glad to see you still have the collecting bug and what SW you do still have looks really nice.

Roland Rat, that looks brilliant


Upgrade for me and the lad on Thundercats, this one is in great condition so had to be purchased, just needs a little care and attention to reseal it
Really need to source some acrylic cases for the Thundercats Mocs

 

[theforceuk]

Thundercats as well as MOTU! Great looking reseal Micheal. 8)

 

[subzero]

Wow it doesn't get more '80's Saturday morning' than that right there. Lovely figure.

 

[Michael Sith]

Yes the Thundercats are very 80s.

So with a little double sided tape and sourced an original catalogue to pop in Lion O is now re sealed and ready for display
Happy with how this one has turned out

 

[Michael Sith]

Thundercats and MOTU reseals done so far

 

[Michael Sith]

Cabinet is too small now, have to rethink display

 

[Mini99]

Great work Mike, those Thunder Cats are fantastic.
If the cabinet is too small I can take those off your hands if uou want. :wink: :roll: :lol:
Keep up the good work.

 

[theforceuk]

Looking great Micheal, the boxed battlecat is the cream of the crop for me.

 

[subzero]

That collection is looking awesome Michael.

Here's a little space saving tip you could use, in mine I hang some things up on the steel frame using paperclips, allows for a little more space on the bottom of the shelf to stop everything from being crammed together. And also acrylic risers are very handy for displaying on top of, and any loose toys or smaller packaged stuff can be displayed underneath them.

 

[Michael Sith]

Cheers bud great idea, will have a play around

I used to practise that kind of lettering all day long with my colouring pencils in the 80s :lol:

So did I but in my case was stencilling with my son cause I am Old :lol:

 

[Michael Sith]

Had a switcheroo and moved the Thundercats to a new area where I've put up a couple of shelves, but need to sort some lighting

A few loose to get yet but at least there not all crammed together now

 

[grinchy]

That's looking great Mike, you've done a fine job with the reseals, and the shelf displays look smart
The detolf looks good to

 

[Michael Sith]

Thanks Grinchy

Another addition to the MOTU collection 12 back Evil Lyn

Ebay buy, need to add a comic then reseal but Evil Lyn can now be crossed off the list, I'll post a pic up when I've added comic and resealed, but here's what arrived in the post

 

[Michael Sith]

So adds comic and repaired the tears ( only the original litho that was still there but screwed up and attached to top of bubble, think this has come out well as an all original reseal, very pleased with it

 

[Palifan]

Another top reseal Mike and it's great to see your non SW collection expanding

I need to post up my latest vintage oddness I've come across so I'll probably see you back here soon.
