I want to know what happened when he asked that and a guy replied. "Yeah, sure, let's have a quick one off, then.'

Of course, they didn't show -that-.

what companies do you all collect from... I am mostly Bowen, just don't really want to get started with other companies I spend enough buying Bowen as it is... Although I may have to get the Hard Hero Angel FS...

SS and gentle giant for me mostly.....plus I am starting to dabble in WETA, and DC direct....since Villafane and Bergholtz both went....they are amazing artists

We collect Bowen stuff, and statues that catch our eyes. I personally love the Tooned Up maquettes from Electric Tiki, although I prefer to just get the female figures. (Samantha and Serena, Jeanie and Evil Jeanie, Electra Woman and Dyna Girl MBs.) I'm really looking forward to getting a Lily and Marilyn Munster.

I also collect the Star Wars toon maquette statues, but only the ones from the original trilogy. (I wish they'd do another 3PO that's not based on that awful Droids cartoon.)

Beyond that, just whatever catches our attention. We're not completists, really. (Well, Jim is, and he loves Alex Ross stuff, so we've got a near complete run of Earth X busts. I'm not so particular.)

The piece I'm dying to have, though, is the Willow Statue from DST. I've seen it in Previews, and Diamond had a prototype at WWTexas last year, but I have yet to see it for sale anywhere. When it does, though, I am all over it.

Support lesbian witches whenever possible. It's the law. Okay, it's not the law, but it's a good rule of thumb.

Bowen and DCD are the majority of collection ... but I do have a few DST and 2 HH pieces, as well and a few pieces from Aspen and CMS ... and least we forget several of my own.

It's been a while since I posted any sexy but tasteful pics. Here's a couple of my faves.

Colossus! Underused in X3 (he didn't have any lines!), but still nice to look at.

Captain Jack! Need I say more? And Barrowman is a FoN!

I forgot to mention that we also have all those full-sized Alex Ross heads, with the exception of the poorly-painted Thing head. Frankly, for me, it's a bit odd being regarded all the time. I can't wait till we move into a house, and I can put my computer desk in a different room.

Makes 'congratulating oneself' a bit uncomfortable, if you take my meaning. All those dead eyes watching....

Yeah, that did suck. But it was still a rush to see him armor up. And the change was cool. No Byrne/****rum flash of light for him!
