Please note: This isn't a raid to steal anything.
We will, however, play with everything. NO SHELF WILL BE LEFT UNTOUCHED! FOR SPARTA!
lol
I pulled these pics out of retirement, since the theme seems to be "HONKIN' LARGE COLLECTIONS!"
Ah, the good ole days

Plus, I have a bag of each that are either missing guns or arm attachments that wouldn't really fit on the shelf.

I'd like to get a better view of the top row with the Crimson Guard. Do you have an Iron Grenadier setup with Destro and crew? |

I would post other pics, but honestly I am not sure I should, after reading this in the locked AFA thread... Quote: |

If that is the attitude of the boards here, then that is cool with me, but I'd just rather not rock the boat by posting pics of large amounts of stuff.

After all, this is supposed to be fun right? I for one am just happy to see your collection, KGI. I could never build an army that big (though it would be fun), and I'm not sure I would want to put in the time, effort, or money, but it's definitly cool. Thanks for sharing.
And thanks to C.I.A.D. too. I'm a huge IG fan, so your pics made me smile a lot. Just wish Hasbro had given Voltar, the TARGATs and the Annihilators appropriate colors... ;) |

It's much easier to post hate than it is to work on collecting something comparable.
I've had a few people over the years tell me to stop being proud of my autographs... and I'm all like... "When you tirelessly track down and write to all these numerous people and finally get an autograph, then you'd want to show it off too."
Cool collection man, be proud of your hard work.

The case has another couple of cases in front of it that keep me from getting a good faraway shot....But here is what i have. There were pics of this case, set up slightly differently, on another web site, but things have been changed around a bit, and this is how it actually is in my one Joe room now.
There are a lot of vehicle drivers missing because they will be part of a different display later.
