Display Your Collections...


Recommended Posts

its a very cool collection but the Aliens "express elevator to hell" doesnt blend. It should be displayed seperately, maybe with a Hot Toys power lifter and a Hicks and a Hudson or something.

It's just there because I made the stand too tall for my other shelves, doh! I need to get back to the machine shop and cut it down. Two feet to the right of those shelves is another set with a Worrior Alien, Predator, Terminator...... B))

Thanks for the positive feedback. I have been collecting what I think is the perfect cross section of Mecha. A lot of this is based on what I think is cool, or what stuck with me when I was a kid, etc. It took me a while to figure out how I wated to display my collection. I think the lights are great, and for $10/ cheap and easy! The camera doesn't do it justice. The light in the pics is very harsh compared to reality. That pic was taken without any other lights in my office on. I leave the "mood lighting" on 24hrs a day. The bulbs are supposed to be good for 10,000 hours. I find myself going to the bathroom in the middle of the night in my spare bathroom now so I can walk by my office. :) Macross stuff is certainly the centerpiece of what I have as far as toys go. I will pop some pics of the Legos, movie memorabilia, cars, motorcycles, etc, etc whe I get done with all of my shelves and lighting.

I still have an Elintseeker in the box, one more Fokker 1/48 on the way (for a total of 3) and a VF-OS With a Ghost on Pre-Order. Oh yeah, I have another YF-19 1/60 with booster on the way but it's going right back out for custom paint and grafix. And of course I couldn't resist and pre-ordered a VF-1 and a YF-19 25th. I have a pretty sweet display/armor/custom paint idea for those though. I will fire off pics when they come in. I think everyone will dig it.

I know this isn't a Robo.....site. But wait till you see my 1:1 150hp, 400lb, 175mph Cyclone. I will probably have it done by spring. Where to find a helmet on the other hand......

LOL Damnit Sqidd.. you took the idea right outa my head!!!! Being a (MadManxMan) bit freindly with bikes myself , i thought of a Cyclone a while back. What u thinking of using as a base/donor bike? I looked into a vmax but to be fair it was a bit pricey and too pretty to cut up. Project is on indefinate hold.

(you are serious by the way?)

Thanks!

Could you edit the pics out of your quotes please? Some members are very sensitive about quoting pics on the same page, plus it's faster for low bandwidth users. :rolleyes:

Nice collection of Gundam trading figures/gashapon. I seriously wish I had more room to display stuff with minimal amounts of dusting needed.

Dust is our worst enemy.

I set some more lights up and moved some stuf around today. Took a while to wire all the lights in the shelving unit and make the aluminum shields, but it turned out pretty good. I think I am going to add a lot more metal to the bookcase and paint it white. It will have that sudo industrial look then. Looks good for now though me thinks.

I believe that is canon, that is the valk Hikaru flew in DYRL at the end of the film, or are you just talking about the emblems on the fastpacks?

In some blurry scenes at the end, he has both a black heatshield and black emblems on the fastpacks ^_^ . That's how I prefer it (here's some older crappy shots w/ bad lighting).

You're actually right, GHOSTRYDER! I saw DYRL again last night and HIKARU's VF-1S did have the black heatshied and emblems in a couple of scenes before he off'ed BODOLZAA. Andt thanks for posting yer pics, they look 110% better than mine. Just absolutely gorgeous :D !
