"Stormtrooper" T

My "Star Wars" collecting days are over but I couldn't resist this T when I saw it. Thanks to "Dr Giggles" for the heads up that "Simply Toys" has a shipment of Ts. HMV has a better collection of comic Ts though.

"Storm"

I was never a fan of white figures but the sculpt and the cape of "Storm" was too beautiful to pass up. She is the first addition to my budding "X-Men" collection.
Did you know that lighter fluid can be used to remove stains on figures? That explains the presence of the Zippo tin behind the figure. I will get down to cleaning her when I have spare time.
Update: Finally got down to using the lighter fluid in my attempt to remove the stains. Crap!!! The light blue paint came off. WTF. Folks... you were warned!!!

"Supergirl" Kotobukiya statue

She is mine! Bwaaahahahahhahahaha...

I am in two minds over whether to take her out to display or keep her in the box... doh! I will store her in my cabinet for the moment until I make a decision.

"Hellboy"

This 10" bad boy has been hidden in my cabinet for years. With the new display case, I decided it was time that he saw daylight and here he is in all his glory.

The smaller version is staying in the blister packaging safe in my cabinet.

Acrylic case

"Amazing Swift" got me this freaking awesome acrylic case to protect my display space. Goodbye dust, smoke and heat.

"Supergirl"

Was originally planning to buy the "Supergirl" action figure from the Michael Turner series but passed on it because the paint job wasn't good. I turned my attention to the statue version instead but I've set my sights on the Kotobukiya statue.

"X-Men"

Now that I've completed my "Fantastic Four" collection... I have thought long and hard. It is time to start adding select "X-Men" characters.
"Gambit" is definitely my MUST buy "X-Men" figure. Why? He is rare and I love his mutant powers.

"Colossus" is one that I'm dying to get. I've seen it in Singapore but it is retailing at an exorbitant price. The search continues...

"Beast". I like him because he's an intellectual and awkward.

"Cyclops" is one of my fav characters but I have yet to come across one with a to die for face and sculpt.

"Human Torch"

Hunted high and low for the "Human Torch" to complete my "Fantastic Four" collection. Mission accomplished!!!

"Mr. Freeze"

Is it a coincidence or fate? I just blogged about "Batman" villains last night and I saw this "Mr. Freeze" figure staring at me this evening. As usual... I quickly grabbed it.

It's not the "DC Superheroes" series "Mr. Freeze"... but it will make do for the moment :p
Just realised that both are made from the same mould... the "DC Superheroes" version has the better paint job and icicles.

"Batman" villains

"Batman" has really cool villains. Besides the all-time fav "Joker", there are numerous others.
I discovered this new site with insane action figure pictures. I reckon he uses a macro lens to capture every intricate detail of the figures he collects and he has a really huge collection I have to add.
Going through his collection... I'm tempted to go hunt out "Mr. Freeze", "Two-Face", "Scarecrow" and "Bane".
