Sweet autographs, as I've said. That's my fav. part of your collection, I think...

I like the battle droid and gungan army, the walkers, the astromechs, kubricks, and the FF/POTJ wall is just...  :o

Good stuff!  :-*

Great collection Hemish!

Did you get all four of those at once?  If so, wow.  I assume that's the SOTE Vader there.  What did they all cost you, if you don't mind my asking?  Whatever it was, well worth it.  Some of the top pieces of the modern line.  Congrats!

hemish,

that's a pretty cool setup on those shelves. the way you have the figures lined up has a nice flow to it. you're a lucky guy to have a wife who would cooperate so nicely with you in getting them display. now where do I find such a gal? hah!

cheers!

Small Update
The house is still a mess with the lounge room covered in boxes , ships ets, so i took some pics of the stuff in the new toy room

First up is a picture i got from a con here last year called Supanova, the picture was drawn by an artist named Rebecca Clements, she is also doing another picture for me as well

Otc on the wall
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v724/Hdekker/pictures015.jpg)
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v724/Hdekker/pictures016.jpg)
I got another one of those shelving units and it's being shared with my stikfas at the moment
but here's a pic of the combined jedi from ep1 and saga line

Post by: JediMAC on March 25, 2005, 08:20 PM
I dig seeing all the carded OTC up on the wall together like that.  Very cool looking...

I also see that you have the last two stinking figures that I need to finish my modern carded collection off - the FF Weequay and Sandtrooper.  :-\   Are those the VHTF U.S./English versions there, or "just" the Tri-logos?

Cool stuff.  Keep it comin' Hemish...

They would be the US carded ones my friend , i needed about 66 to finish of the collection and DesertFox at scum was selling the lot for $400US so i just figured what the hell and picked up the full set from him to complete the collection, hence the extra Sandtrooper  ;D

Awesome collection.  Where did you get the frames for the autographs?  That artwork is pretty sweet also.  Matt_Fury is right though-you need a bigger house! ;)
Title: Re: Hemish's Collection
Post by: Hemish on April 30, 2005, 09:05 PM
I got them framed professionally , the pictures dont do it justice because they really look spectacular, all up for those four frames i was up for $220 AUS
I figured if i 'm gonna display them on the walls do it right, so as each theatre wide was $65 to frame and i still have another 8 to go i'll get one  done a month.

Post by: JesseVader08 on April 30, 2005, 11:10 PM
Very nice additions!  Ever since C3, I've really started to take notice in the many great options for pictures/art for my walls.  And I agree, if you're going to frame something like those, you'd better do it right.   :)
Title: Re: Hemish's Collection
Post by: Ryan on May 4, 2005, 07:01 PM
Very nice setup!! You have tons of ships, I love it! ;D It looks really cool to see that many together. The shelves look really cool and are organized very nicely.

There have been comments about you needing a bigger house, I wouldn't worry about it. If you run out of room just send what ever doesn't fit over to my house. I can "look after" it for awhile. ;) :P  :D

Great looking setup, Hemish.  It's amazing how you've got so much on that shelf, and yet it doesn't look way overcrowded.

I think my favourites are the Dewbacks & Sandtroopers.   8)

I like the set up for the MR Replicas.  We just moved into a new house and I'm working on a collection room.  Hopefully, I'll get it set up soon (the rest of the house is more of a priority) and I'll get some pictures posted here.
Title: Re: Hemish's Collection
Post by: Hemish on October 26, 2007, 09:07 AM
Thanks guys

iFett- Mate thats just a 1/18 scale Viper I got for my Stikfas to cruise in, 1/18 scale cars are pretty much perfect for them.

The room is prety much finished, The stuff displayed is put on the shelves I want, I still have another unit coming and another Detolf unit that is together just not filled on the other side of the room, will post some more pics of that side when the other shelf is done, anyway here is how it looks at the moment.
Not sure about the figures on the wall though, I do have some starwars art and my theatre wide autographs that i'd like to display as well so those figures might come down or be moved to above the current shelves on the other side of the room.
