Macethy's humble little South African collection

Hi everyone!

So I've been lurking on the site for a few months now but only decided to post something recently. Below is mine and my girlfriends humble little collection of statues and figures all the way from down here in South Africa.

We picked up our first statue about a year ago (Zatanna Cover Girl) and have been hooked ever since, currently our collection consists of roughly 35 statues/figures. Unfortunately no Bowen or Sideshow statues due to exchange rate and delivery costs, but hopefully someday

Enjoy the pictures and sorry in advance about the picture quality, saving up for a proper camera! All the statues are in the loft of our apartment, which is our entertainment/comics room!

Thanks for looking and hope you enjoyed our collection. We are going to be expanding the collection quite a lot throughout the year and getting our first Detolf cabinet next month (have to import them unfortunately).

Thank you It's small but it's a start.

The BBT boobleheads fit nicely between the series DVDs and the party game is peaking out there from the back.

Got it from my local comic shop, they have gotten into quite the business of selling framed prints recently. Although, have seen a few people selling it on eBay also.

A conclusion is simply the place where you got tired of thinking.

Only double? You aren't trying hard enough.

If I lived in the USA or Canada it would probably be more like you said. Exchange rates/shipping/import taxes suck
