Thanks for the close-up pics and descriptions of your "Indy" stuff! Much appreciated. (Again,...awesome collection.) Good luck with your new adventure!
 
Re: collection showoff- 2 weeks before BABY!

dude, that is so sweet!

I need more info on that secret door, mainly the keypad and mag-latches. I still need to tweak my own secret door :cool
 
Re: collection showoff- 2 weeks before BABY!

Dude, your collection is Killing me!
First off the collection as a whole is fantastic...but I love the Robocop, Rocketeer, and the proton pack...what did you use to stand the proton pack up on the pillar?
I need to get mine off the floor.
BTW you have too many captain america shields, I'll take the round one. lol

Also your hidden book case, door is sweet!

keypad, and mag latches were all part of a kit from skylinkhome.

got the DM-100 with an extra mag lock, keypad and wall button to open the door from the inside.

It also helped when I ripped the bookshelf door out and redid everything. I learned that the door opener works just as well upside down and is even more stable. So if you get it, just turn the instructions upside down. :)

Hope that helps.

Thanks Thanks!
Proton pack is on a guitar stand. like this:

It's not exactly like the pic above but pretty similar - My only suggestion is to get a really really sturdy one. The one I have is kinda sturdy but if I were ever to run into the pedestal, I'd be worried of it falling. Damn proton pack is nearly 50 pounds with all the batteries, sound, lght and alice pack...

Captain America shields - Two are ones that sideshow released - But there are two more realistic ones (IMO) from Irishamericanlad here on the boards. He makes great shields :thumbsup
 
Re: collection showoff- 2 weeks before BABY!

where do you get your pedestals?

the pedestals totally get the job done. They can hold anything I put on it. :thumbsup

It's not the prettiest, it's not real marble, or stone... :unsure

I started getting these when I first started collecting. Back in the day I couldn't fathom how displaying a prop could sometimes cost more than the actual prop.... so I got a lot of these.

Over time - I felt like I had to match what I had previously or else the entire collection would look weird as a whole.

I'm still not sure if I would have gone a different route with these. They're very practical and functional
 
Re: collection showoff- 2 weeks before BABY!

Let me also congratulate you on the forthcoming addition to your family!

Next...That is one superb collection from the hidden door all the way down to the displays. But don't you think you might need at least 1-2 more X-Wings? :lol

Keep us updated on how the other side of the basement develops.

I always thought it was cool to have "full figure" displays. I always wanted a Stormtrooper one. Awesome collection!
