I know how you felt. Most of my statues have to sit in their boxes in a closet because I live in a efficiency apartment, it is really sad. I am in the process of looking for a house in a neighborhood that sucks.

I think the one piece that really stuck out for me in your man-cave is the Tremors bust sticking out of the wall. That is so awesome. Very different.

I would love to hang out in your museum, but I have to be honest, I would be freaked out. All the full scale busts scare me, hahaha. Especially the Predators and the Alien ones.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

I remember the time it took me to paint the stripes in my room. Then I look at the paint on your walls and can only imagine how long it took you to put yours together.

The loader on the right side is the HOT TOYS loader from a couple years back. Its not a statue, but still, a very good quality piece.

Job well done...You get a A++...Fantastic setup...I wish that I had your basement to display my items...Awesome art work on the walls for the He-man theme...

Everyone here pretty much agrees that it does such to have your statues sitting in storage...Mine are sitting and waiting for me as well...

I was lucky enough to get one From Howard Senft. He had bought the mold from Steve Johnson effects house and I believe he only made about 3 of them.

I then had John A paint it for me and then hung it from my ceiling using a steel cable wire and painted it matt black so it is virtually invisable and truely gives the effect that he is floating.
