My Prop Replica Collection - New Arrival : The Godfather

Re: My Prop Replica Collection - New Arrivals - Highlander

There's something about the mouth on the Kurgan sculpt that I don't like; as if his gums and teeth are scaled for a smaller mouth or something. Don't love the pose, either - Connor's is much better.

Agree. Love Connor's figurine.
Another great piece you got there Alan

I noticed your Star Trek DVD shelf.

Do you have it all. All series and movies?

That "On Display" picture is like a Where's Wally ( maybe Waldo elsewhere in the world) picture. Took me a while to find it.

Great piece, Alan! But your collection becomes so big, that the great pieces (like this one) are a bit lost in the "not that great" pieces (like the figurines, model cars, etc...). Don't you consider having a kind of "throphee" display with only great prop replica's, like the neuralyzer, the golden gun, etc...?
 
Re: My Prop Replica Collection - New Arrival - Men in Black

depends on how long you are collecting... One day you will look at all this stuff and think: Man, thats too much sensless stuff...

I got rid of all these fanbased stuff from Indiana Jones, BTTF, etc. which not takes place in the movie and so I concentrate more on main stuff...

I give it up years ago to collect figures and all these stuff...

But the Neuralizer is cool... Yes, I would say, I'm jealous... :lol

I love the different ways people display their stuff.

Mine tend to be more spread out and separated into themes, but in this case I love searching Alan's big glass case because I always find something new. It's a blast to study and just a gorgeous collection. When you look at my props they are just there. Nothing to search. You can look at Alan's case or whole room for a while and then see something new.

I have my prop displays all planned out and once they are done I will leave them for a few years, but I am already thinking about Phase II where I rearrange them.

Man, you just can't stop, can you?
Another great item :thumbsup

Thanks MB. Some things are hard to resist. Problem is, they look for me :lol

Now that's what I'm talkin' about! Very nice piece Alan. :thumbsup

Cheers bro :cool, much appreciated :)

Now that is the whole point of my set-up :thumbsup. I myself spend hours on end in that room. It's not just about collecting, but also about enjoying looking / taking all that in ... and playing with them :lol Takes me those hours to go through the stuff visually and picking them up etc (must admit, a few 'pew-peews' are also involved with spaceships etc :lol)

About 'not so great' pieces, that, mon ami, is in the eye of the beholder :).

If you go through all the posts I have made in this thread (kidding, don't :lol !) I have opened boxes containing a $10 figure, with the same enthusiasm, passion, subsequent squeal of joy :lol, photographed and displayed it, on the same level that I have with a box containing, for example, the Neuralyzer.

I genuinely love each and every single bit as much as I do them all. Yes, of course, some items I love more than others, but, those 'favourite' items also include cheap figure and say a golden gun.

The 'distance' of 'love' between my favourites and the rest, in my eyes, is not sufficiently large to warrant a 'separate section' for them though.

No senseless stuff here either :lol

My passion is Movie Memorabilia.

Props, and anything I like that reminds me or evokes an emotional response from a movie I am fond of is a welcome, appreciated and cherished piece of my collection :)

Also, any item can be of any size for me, and I'm just as happy. 1:1 is not a must. There are so many little things I have that are either not made 1:1, or are way too expensive, or just too big to display, so those things cover that void for me. I now have it, I can see it, it reminds me of what I wanted to be reminded of ...... so I am happy :)

And lets not go into the 'close-enoughs' arena. I really don't care if something is not 200% spot-on either :lol As I always say, if I recognise it, that's good enough for me :)

Trust me, you will likely never see me get rid of anything I have in there :lol

Now, if you ever see me putting stuff in that room that is not connected in some way to movies, rest assured the Mrs will be the first to put me in a straight jacket & cart me off :lol

Thanks Tom, that's my line of thinking, and exactly what I do on a daily basis :)

If I ever get too 'bored' of how things are displayed, imagine, I could rearrange everything in different places, and spend months just getting used to the new layout and rediscovering things all over again :lol

Adam knows what I talking about ;)

Re: My Prop Replica Collection - New Arrival - Men in Black

Take it easy, it was not in a negative way...

But thats my personal experiences...

Believe me... I collected figures,costumes... trough that I came to to replicas & costumes...

I had nearly everything from Friday the 13th, Nightmare, TCM, POTC figures, Kill Bill Figures (like you) and all series from McFarlanes Movie Maniacs (hell, who knows what they're worth today)...

I don't say that it will happen, but one day I thought: It was a good time, but my interests are moving in a different direction, so get this stuff out, and start concentrating on replicas...

At the moment there are piece (replicas) I will never sell, but who knows what in years could happen...

Just want to say: Have fun with everything as long as you HAVE fun, but if it only collects dust and you think: On that place could be something cooler, than its time to movie on...

So, I think for some people it is more interesting to watch replicas than figures...

If you ask me: There are way too much figures out, from the same movies, in too many different styles... It looks only like making money to the companies... Thats why I quit...
Of course it was hard to resist, when the Indiana Jones Sideshow Premium figures came out... :lol
