Show your Toys!

[Tanuki]

No, not THOSE kind of toys...

Well, I'm a mad toy collector! I've been collecting toys since I was little, and though my mom made me get rid of most of them when I was younger, I salvaged some and rebuilt my collection by going to cons. Here's my collection as of Otakon 2010.


I'll do close-up pictures of the collection eventually. My favorite figure in my collection HAS to be the Protoman.

What are your gems in your collections? What gems do you WANT in your collections?

...anyone want that Jack poster?

[Mockery]

Haven't seen one of these threads in a while actually, good call. I'll post some of mine when I have a chance. I know I have some old photos of them lying around somewhere.

Anyway, pretty decent sized collection you have there, though I'm not familiar with most of those characters. Looks like anime-related toys for the most part?

[Phoenix Gamma]

Somebody really likes Kingdom Hearts...
I like your Protoman though :D I only have X right now and a capsule Bass figure, but I have that awesome Mega Man model kit on preorder. It looks way better than what Jazwares shits out.

I'm too lazy to take pictures of all my stuff right now. It's spread across my bookcase, dresser, and desk. I'll say right off the bat that Professor Layton is probably my favorite toy. You can give that guy any accessory and he'll make magic happen.

Okay, here's the promised close-ups.



The old MOBIP K-On! figures were really nice--figma released some better quality ones, but since I had already bought two mobips I bought a third one just for quality consistency.


I had to order that Blissey from China...


I've had the Clow Card book since I was ten. And like hell I'm letting go of it.




There's a story behind that random-ass mitten...when I was little I thought the mittens were puppets. So I named them Slushy and Slush-Slush. I lost Slush-Slush.

On a side note, Psychic Academy has got to be one of the worst manga I've ever read. It's like Twilight for anime fans, only less of a following.








I didn't want the Miku nendoroid petit...I wanted Haku. But it was from one of those random figure boxes.
And I don't like Kingdom Hearts as much as I used to, because the fandom is annoying as hell. I just thought the figures were really good quality--Play Arts tends to do a good job with figures. And speaking of Protoman, I'm waiting for Kotobukiya to release their new Megaman.







And you have a Layton toy, Phoenix!? Where did you get that!?

And here's the two gems I WANT for my collection...

Heheh, sorry. I've been at school, then got a "job" of sorts (volunteering all summer), so my figures kind of got neglected.

[darkvare]

Ok, I found a bunch of my old toy photos. All the ones I've acquired in recent years are in storage at the moment, so I'll have to get pics of them later. Anywhere, here's what my collection looked like when I was still living in Richmond:

[Dimnos]

Robo Force! Man I almost forgot about those guys.

[Tanuki]

THAT FREDDY! I love it.

[Dimnos]

Then that.

[DougClayton4231]

Easily one of the favorite toylines of my youth. I made a Robo Force fan page a long time ago actually and eventually reviewed some of the other toys that were never released. Check 'em out, I'm sure they'll bring back some memories.

Yeah, that was a good series o' toys. There's also a small Freddy toy from Matchbox up there too, where he's riding on a van.

In an earlier apartment, there was this weird nook carved out up by the ceiling, so Re built an entire cityscape and had it backlit. We had that Spider-Man danging in front of it. It looked so awesome. I'll see if I can find a photo of it.

That would be amazing to see. My girlfriend is no where near cool enough to let me do something like that lol.

[darkvare]

The lucky star figmas break very easily. Konata's arm wouldn't move at the shoulder, and I accidentally pushed it too far. Now her arm's held together by glue.

As for Miku, her stand's broken. The blinds in my old dorm suddenly collapsed atop my figures.

Yeah, Figmas don't stand damage too well...

Then you have ham hands. 10 figmas and not one broken part.

Now that I think about it, Miku and Konata were my first figmas, so that might explain it.

But yeah I am a bit of a butterfingers.

Seeing as my toy collection is mostly in boxes in my basement at the moment, hows about I show you all the exclusives from this years BotCon?


This is the 2010 box set, the theme is G2 Redux, but it's a mix of G2 (one based on a never released toy, the other the first BotCon exclusive from 94) homages, European G1 toys that were not released in the US, and a guy from the Robots In Disguise cartoon being worked into the classic Transformers cartoon universe.


This is Slicer, the Attendee toy exclusive. Basically you have to preregister with the 'Primus Package' to get this toy. It's a homage to Slicer, who was a European Actionmaster. OR He can be used as a Shattered Glass Wheeljack. Shattered Glass is the theme of the 2008 set and is a mirror universe type setting. The fan club and convention organizers like to re-purpose toys as needed for fiction, so Slicer here can serve as two different official characters.


This is the first of the add on Souvenir toys for the set. You get the boxed set and attendee toy by preregistering, then there is others to pick up at the convention only, whats left are sold online. This is Rapido and Cindersaur. Rapido was G2 Autobot who gets one great homage here and Cindersaur is based on the G2 Firecons. The Firecons were 3 Decepticons from G1, who in G2 were released in Europe only, but just as a duo. Cindersaur here is a homage to the missing third Firecon.


This is the larger of the souvenir sets. It's Doublepunch, who was a European Actionmaster Elite (Actionmasters who transformed). Also is Scorch who originally was a European toy that came out in the time between G1 and G2. Lastly that little white square (sorry for the fuzzy cellphone pics) is Shattered Glass Ravage. OR it can be a new Glit toy, Glit being from the Japanese TF KISS toyline (its pretty gross, lots of implied rape)


Lastly, the troop builder pack of the set, a 3 pack of Sharkticons. The pic aint so great, so here is a better pic. LINK

In fact, here's better pics and decriptions LINK
