MrJones Man Cave within a man cave

Hey all, just joined the forum and thought this would be a good place to introduce myself and start posting pics of my ongoing collection.

I recognize some of the names on here from "other" places (I'm picking up a run on theme of not mentioning names) so I know some of y'all.

Anyways, this seems like a lively site, whatup from Toronto Canada. Pics will be posted shortly!

*Edit* Looks like I actually joined over a year ago... I guess I forgot!

Well I figure I'll show a crappy picture of how my collection started. The Koto Venom was my first statue though technically the first statue I saw that I knew was mine was a Bowen Thanos mini bust. My then girlfriend got me the Thanos but for Christmas that year and let me see it but said I can't have it until Christmas and then proceeded to insist on me opening the Venom.


This picture was from my living room while living in a bachelor pad with a roommate. Since then that same girlfriend moved in, we got engaged (how could I not, she bought me statues) and I turned my roommates old room into my office collection room which I will show you some updated pics now

A little messy but you get the idea... in my job I work from home a fair bit so it is nice to be surrounded by my collection!



My favourites are Marvel Cosmic characters... which you will see more of below









Was able to track down a few of my fav villains... love this Apocalypse



My Spiderman collection... I almost had the Sideshow Carnage Comiquette but I didn't pull the trigger on it and now it haunts my dreams.

One of my pride and joys



And finally here you will see I am a bit obsessed with Thanos. He is by far my favourite character... possibly of all time. I'm trying to have one of the more impressive shrines to the Mad Titan.






I didn't show the progression as I have... elsewhere... but it has been a lot of fun hunting some of these down and adding to the collection thus far! I hope you all enjoy the pics, I look forward to updating this thread as I go. I also like to take pics of individual statues and edit them from time to time, mostly I post to my Instagram but if other people do that on this forum I'll do the same and post them here. Thanks for stopping by!

I know right?! I think I was a little intimidated back in Jan of 2014... I was just starting out then and this is a busy forum. Oh but I'm ready now

Great stuff here! Your Thanos collection is awesome! Are you planning on getting the recently announced Kotobukiya 1/6 version?

Thanks everyone! I look forward to updating this thread as it progresses and when I finally begin to "fine tune" my collection room to make it a lot more tidy than it is now.

GaryTongue I definitely plan on getting that Thanos... especially as Kotos are pretty easy to get, don't need one of these back door dealings from the other side of the globe lol!
