I finally have my collection to the point where I think it's worth a share on here. I haven't been collecting nearly as long as a lot of the people on here, but I have tried to put together a nice, fairly cohesive collection over the last few years. I also don't have a fraction of the skill that a lot of members have to make my own stuff, so I am really thankful that I found this community. It has inspired me to attempt to do some of my own stuff. I recently did the electronics on my own in a lightsaber.
So far, my plan has been to try to mainly focus on one franchise at a time. My top favorite movies/franchises of all time are Indiana Jones (Raiders and Last Crusade), the first Jurassic Park, all three Back to the Futures, and the Star Wars OT, but I loved TFA, so the new trilogy is probably going to be included as well. So those are the ones I have mostly collected. For the most part those are what I've collected from, aside from picking up a few other things here or there as they came available. Currently my main focus is building up my Star Wars collection. Here's what I have so far:
My Indy collection:
The only thing I REALLY still want is an idol, but I also wouldn't mind getting some filler type stuff to line the back of the top shelf to fill it out a bit more.
Next up is Jurassic Park:
I think I'm pretty much done with JP, although I wouldn't mind getting a hat or something from the original.
Then we have Back to the Future:
Currently patiently waiting for Peter74's 1885 model time machine. I'd also like to upgrade to a better hoverboard at some point. I have a lot of the main props covered so I've kind of moved on, but the BTTF shelf is going to continue to be a work in progress as things become available.
Finally, my current project, Star Wars:
I have a Darth Ugly on order and I'm on the list for a Phoenix Props E-11. I'm HOPING to pick up one of Todd's DL-44s and a Luke X-Wing helmet at some point this year.
