    Very classy. I'm seeing a lot of choice pieces in your collection. The big fellas hanging out with the RxH guys really caught my eye.

    oyez - nice handpainted Skullwing.

    Pics like this do very little to help me with my buying break. I've been able to without the Spirit GF so far. But oh, the temptation.

    Thanks very much for the compliments guys!-All of the cases were hand made by me...The wood case was made from a clear maple plywood w/real maple edging..The plexi was some old stock i had and the shelves(mirrors) were out of a new vanity cabinet someone had ordered then cancelled do i basically got stuck w/it-lol-For those that don't know me i make custom cabinets and other asstd wood products..Can't wait to get the office finished-Theres an existing wood case built into the wall so i'm planning on expanding on it w/more maple and some recessed lighting and glass doors also..

    great dolly's john and super nice craftsmanship on the cabinet. you need to make more to have a matching set so everything can be protected from that nasty thing we call dust. :twisted:

    Great setup. Always liked that custom Skullbee that Paul painted for you.
    And the GID manti and the GID skullbee and the ...

    Also like how everything is displayed around eye level or so.
    With some case designs, you really can't take in the figures delegated to the bottom areas unfortunately.

    Love the cleanliness and symmetry of the set up !!

    I love how you dont have every figure but what you do have are perfect and top choices. !

    Makes for a great "real" collection.

    Really nice staging for that collection John. We should talk shop when we meet up.
    I design custom cabinets probably similar to the ones you build. I got few up on the flickr accnt.
