Cheers man! You slag, I knew you wouldn't let me forget that. He ain't gunning **** is he? He's got no gun! Don't worry, he'll be getting replaced/upgraded this year 8)

Think yourself lucky Mr Criddle didn't know you were uming and aring over it, he'd of had you buying one MOC.

 

[Robstyley]

I was never after an Imp Gunner in the first place! It was you egging me on cos I let slip mine was without blaster. Strange you should mention Criddle as the only moc I did buy was a TFP

Nice collection Rob. Fantastic photo's.

Quick question. How have you attached a cover/door to the figure cabinet?? I have a similar shape cabinet that I want to add a cover/door to but not sure how I am going to do it.

 

[Robstyley]

Hello mate, thanks. It was doing my head in deciding how to do the door. Was going to try and make a proper door with hinges etc but was too much hassle. In the end I went for a bit of perspex the exact size of the cabinet (I made it 600mmx800mm, standard poster size) and glued and screwed 90 degree plastic bead around three sides of the cabinet leaving enough gap for the Perspex to slide into. Then put a fourth length on the perspex itself to make it look like it goes all the way round like a frame. Hard to explain, heres a few photos;

Perspex slides between cabinet and bead;

Perspex with bead on one side;

I could only get white bead so I sprayed it. I didn't glue actually, I used that hardcore no more nails double sided sticky tape stuff. The perspex is 3mm thick. Hope this helps dude, might give you a few ideas

 

[jedi_masters]

That is actually pretty neat. Like you have been thinking of hinges but too much hassle.

That's Rob, will look into the way you have done it.

I've got quite a few other random vintage and modern bits and other vintage toys, Transformers etc. I've really enjoyed the collecting even more lately since being on the forum. I've bought quite a lot of loose and carded figures in the last few months. I'm not really going for complete runs at the moment except for a loose set. I'm just collecting the stuff I like and getting my favourite figures on Jedi cards, because they're the cheapest and the cards I mostly had as a kid.

Nice set up their and awesome ROTJ MOCs. I had Jedi cards when I was a kid as well, really wont a Han Hoth Jedi MOC but going for a debut run first.

Thanks Andy.. means a lot coming from a long time collector like yourself. I'm just at that point of sussing out what I want to do and collect. Mate I love that signature vid, cracks me up! It's the way the other two move back as their mate gets grabbed :lol:

You've been busy Rob! Really nice!

 

[Robstyley]

Thanks guys! Need to do an update, have added a few Mocs and some loosies. It's funny, you don't really notice your collection growing until you suddenly look back 6 months or a year and then you realise what you've bought/spent..! :arrow:

 

[Robstyley]

A little update of my main cabinet/collection. Have had a shuffle around to display more Mocs that I've bought in recent months.

Since the last update I've added a Luke X-Wing, a Hoth Stormtrooper, an IG-88, an 8D8 and a Han Trenchcoat!

 

[theforceuk]

Very nice additions mate! MOCs are a pain to display, but yours are looking great.
