Hey guys,
I just took some pics of my humble collection. It' nothing compared to what I've seen on here, but I'm really happy with it. I don't collect vehicules for lack of space/interest, but that might come. I still have boxes filled with vehicules from my childhood that I will set up eventually. Thanks for looking!
Collection
SDCC Slaughter was a gift from a good friend of mine that went to Toronto Comic con and got him for 20$...lucky!
Tunnel Rat art by tanker ctupa. Love his art.

Good job, are your shelves in the wall or do they protrude? The first picture looks like it's flush.

Thanks! They attach directly to the wall. Theyre from Ikea, model Bertby. I tried going to find them on their site, but they seem to be discontinued...Cant find them anymore...that sucks.

That collection is nothing to sneeze at. What you lack in quantity you more than make up for in quality. Nice. :)

hahaha seriously!!! But mostly dust...that was my biggest concern...I had about 15 figs in a glassless display and within like 3 months, they were dusty as hell...So I invested in this display...about 150$...Another tanker posted his about 1 1/2 ago...

thanks bud! I could but Im kinda bummed about that one. I remember seeing Bad Sociologist' and Turner's and I tried to sculpt his padded jacket...scrapped two bazookas trying to mold the green stuff...so I called it quits and just put the head i did on a winter SE...

I am very impressed with how the collection is displayed. The inwall display case has always been something that I one day would like to utilize.
While many of us have many of the same figures not all of us display them the same. I really applaud your set up. It makes the figures stand out more without becoming distracting or cluttered.
After saying all of that, I ask for my "man card" back.

Thanks for much for the compliments guys! Means a lot coming from other collectors. Most friends of mine think theyre ''cool'' but thats about it. LOL.
As for the customs Jaybeane, you can check out my albums of previously posted thread. I've posted most my customs on here.
