Very cool collection!

I know every collector lacks space, but why is almost everybody cramming too much things on a too small space?

Did the lady customiser in question produce the Vlix figure in your collection?


No, the custom Droids & Ewoks were from a guy in the US. I bought them off him a couple of years back and have tried his email recently but it's 'gone dead' and mailerdemon responds.

I know another guy [in the UK] who makes them, though. I can give you his email if you want but they really aren't cheap - about £40 to £50 quid each. All of them are superb, though, and look identical to originals.

The space thing is a funny point. I always get some new figures and place them on the shelf and make a mental note 'that's it, the shelf is choca, I'm not going to put any more on there'. A few weeks later, though, and something new arrives and I somehow manage to squeeze it on! I literally am out of space now, though, so there's no space for any more!

Funnilly enough I was going get some locks for the cabinets this weekend.

Every time any of Hannah's little nieces and nephews come over for a visit they are instantly attracted to our spare bedroom.

After teaching kids all day I'm never in any mood to guard my 'command centre' from the little terrors - my nerves can't take it!

My turn to chime in.
That is one of the most impressive and concise collection displays I've ever seen. If I could display my stuff like anyone else, I may try to emulate yours, dude.

Do you have contact details for your lady customiser? Just wondering as might like to try and get some done for me?

Sweet maris piper, have said it before in another thread, but that is one sweet collection. Both with Star Wars customs and the loose Action Force :)

The only thing missing from it I can see is a Palitoy DVD ;)
