Thanks for sharing your collection with us Dice. Excellent stuffs. I was introduced to Paman years ago whilst collecting Japanese LCD handhelds. I've never seen any of the cartoons though.
wow amazing collection. I love how it's all set out and that full width cabinet shot is beautiful! I was thinking exactly the same thing - this is what it's all about
Good stuff Dice. I amazed by that display case in the office. Was that custom built for the large toys?
Thanks for the awesome compliments guys... If you're curious about the shelves, I detailed it out a little earlier in the thread. I don't know how to link to a specific post, but it's right after my collection shots when someone else also asked. The Mazinger Z is technically not extra. But yeah, I've got WAY too much extra stuff and things I just don't want or need accumulating from going after whole lots of toys to get a single item out. And I always say " I'll sell it off it will be fine..." and it just keeps piling up.
Swooooooooon This pic alone gets my heart rate up way past where it should be. That's some serious focus man!
There is a Tekkaman and Pegas ST vinyl you sadly can't even see, lurking in their bags w headers. I think I got a shot of the Grip Pegas too... Need the tekkaman grip. Really wish I had those MFV of them and capsule robo. I LOVE Nakajima's stuff. And I love Tatsunoko characters! If I can get some Astro Myu action on that shelf, all those non character related tins and such will get evicted. ALL NAKAJIMA! I'm putting Exoheads MM and Rex stuff in that mix too... as they are essentially astro myu toy continuations. Teet is Evil Badu. and the Machine Man follows the "action boy" generic inner body format.... different discussion... Right now my Great MAzinger and MAzinger Z jumbos are on my floor, and I'm contemplating 3 more of these cases on the opposite wall. It will make this already narrow room like a secret toy library isle. Pegas is so bad ass that when I got my Capsule robo G, the Mazinger stuff had to go for it to fit. If I could score up a Popy Grendizer I'd have the trilogy complete. But it eludes me. It WOULD make a great display, Both Mazinger jumbos and Grendizer jumbo in one case, peppered with those tins and chogokin from the Tekkaman case...
Did a little cleaning/dusting this afternoon and thought to take a shot of the collection. Thanks to all the board members that have helped me.
Nice stuff. What's the Cyborg 009 piece on the card behind the Hedoran and Woo pieces? Set up looks decent. I'm going for a double lack shelf on a black wood grain wall this week. Ikea should be sponsoring our lives. EDIT: I spy at GT Neo Gorilla and the unpainted Pink Nag piece looks awesome. I like unpainted WAY better than painted on almost all new sofvi. Let those salary guys out too! They're trapped behind matango! Let them get to their cubicles!
Great Dustmen Zinc! And that chewed bubblegum Nag is one of the best imo. @ diceone- Very classy display.
Thanks diceone and melek_taus! @ diceone - I know, the Semi-Ningens need come out of hiding. One day when I make more room for everything. The Cyborg 009 is Joe Shimamura. Beautiful figure and he too needs to come out from the back. @ melek_taus - The dustmen are awesome! I'm still looking for the red and dark blue ones. Bubblegum Nag is my favorite of the unpainted ones released thus far. However the mixed parts are pretty sweet too.
@Zincsaucer I'm conflicted... I hate when people have 10 of something I just want one of... I also Love your collection... Compromise?
yea... that series of 009 cyborgs are amazing! joe being the best one, imo. (ralph c.'s picture... wish it was mine)
They only made 3? I understand not making the baby and the chef, but I would have liked to see girl and the weaponry cyborgs
I realize I'm late to the party on this, but HOLY SHIT Diceone!!!! Such a nice collection - awesome focus & displayed so nicely. Seriously fuckin cool.
You also have a custom ivory/bone mongolion? Or you got ahold of kikaiju's? edit: ah, thought there was only 1. thanks
