Ninjas are cool 8)

Never collected bond stuff, but remember my cousin having boxed original bond ca r mint, and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang boxed as my Auntie us ed. to buy 2. Of everything and save one mint, they are both no longe4 with us so don't know. What happened to his stuff :shock:

Picked this up for my lad today as he likes his batman...only a cheapie. But couldn't resist it

Really nice figure there Michael. Batman collecting is a mine field.

 

[chazb73]

Find myself being drawn to Kubrick...weird, but I think they are quite cool

Always had a thing for batman, built one of the michael Keaton kits, painted and bought some led lighting for it...spent ages building and painting then sprayed with wrong sealant tha blistered all the paint :roll:
Had to start again...but like him

Quite a fan of MOTU :!:

We do have joint items, those he usually keeps that's what dads are for :lol:

Have to admit I have a nice iron man and Spider-Man though :lol:


No bloody ope....but centering on vintage now

 

[chazb73]

Some nice item there Mike

I've been looking at a few Bond items on evilbay, love the packaging design on some, might be a nice side collection :?
Always drawn back to SW though

 

[Michael Sith]

Didn't realise there was so much bond stuff out there, loads :!:

Agree some cool stuff, the dinky cars are good

 

[chazb73]

I know Mike - tons of stuff. I must admit I do like the cars, Dinky, Matchbox, Corgi.

If I buy a car or two how do I get them past the wife! - she's bound to notice its not SW :lol:

Mate...where do you think the concept of Jedi mind tricks came from..women are born force sensitive .....after 30 years of marriage she knows what I'm thinking before I do :lol:

Honesty is always the best policy although painful at times :lol:

Best of luck :?

 

[Michael Sith]

Is it just me?

Does anyone collect early 90's Batman stuff? I have a MIB twin pack Ertl Batmobile and (i think) Joker van. Both are Matchbox car type size, still on unopened card/bubble. Both are for sale if someone wanted them. Need to dig them out of the attic.

PM me. Not sure on price. Need to have a look in case they are mega rare or something.

I totally agree with you Michael about the corgi double pack!

 

[plantman]

[chazb73]

Brill love it. Isnt it great chatting to folk who get the collecting thing

Any Bond collectors about ?

 

[Michael Sith]

Lovin the twin pack, awesome and the original loose bat mobiles superb, awesome display

Like you say Chaz...great to know we are not alone with the collecting thing

 

[tundra9]

Awesome setup!

 

[Rebel_Runner]

No so much as a collection, more of an obsession!

Here are a couple of my babies

Cannondale Slice (Hi-Mod version with ZIPP Firecrest Carbon Clinchers):

Cervelo S2 (with Mavic Kysrium SLS):

I have a Specialized Tarmac as well, which is my winter bike, but is currently stripped down ready for a re-spray.

 

[chazb73]

Nice mate used ti love my cycling/mountain biking

 

[Palifan]

Thanks for the comments, I try to keep my display down to this one cabinet and change it around from time to time, here's another version of it.

 

[jackabina]

Top drawer display there

 

[Michael Sith]

Cracking, loving the mix, Baker Dr Who, BA, nice, MOTU nice :!:

Really good display like the idea of switching around rather than trying to get everything out at once

Great stuff

 

[Palifan]

It also means I can have some of my collection up instead of spreading it out through the house and slightly getting it in the neck from the wife! :lol:

 

[plantman]

awesome, i spot a diamond toys commando too, i have one of those

 

[Palifan]

I love the fact someone thought it was a good figure to make for kids! :lol: I've also picked up the three and a half inch version of this that I'll post here at some point, you've just got to love it!

 

[jackabina]

I've had a little run on these lately

The run's not very big on Thundrercats, but still a few quid for the rarer ones :roll:

My vintage MOTU run is 90% there aswell.
