    Going to be 25 this year in September, just have had a recent interest in the vintage stuff after noticing I didn't have a VINTAGE Optimus Prime in my collection....good thing they came out with the 25th Anniversary Prime....which lead to the other vintage bots coming into my collection.

    I should have more too add once my Star Trek DS9 Station gets here along with the Star Trek Figures I'm waiting on.....and a Gi Joe DVD Battle Pack MASS Device....and my Gi Joe Parts to get here....

    Been a hasbro/playmates toys addict for many many years....starting to collect Playmates Star Trek stuff again....hopefully here soon I'll be getting my Pre-Order for TF Universe Wave 4 Voyagers Vector Prime and Inferno soon......

    Tyjos, how big is the G.I. Joe X-19 Phantom? I am interested in having it facing off against my Cobra Night Raven. Nice collection. We have similar tastes. I have every single one of those Star Trek books and many models of the ships and stations.

    It's a BIG JET And I do mean BIG!

    Probably would dwarf the Night Raven....

    Well my next update should be soon, I'll be getting 11 Star Trek Figures here soon, parts for my Thunderclap Cannon, Gi Joe MASS Device DVD Battlepack....and my Trade I'm working on with my friend I'm getting just about every star trek Innerspace Playset and:
    Star Wars Action Fleet
    A-Wing
    B-Wing
    Snowspeeder
    Prince Xizor's Virago
    Slave 1 [Empire Strikes Back Version]
    Millenium Falcon
    Y-Wing

    Not sure what else my friend is adding in but I may end up getting a TIE Fighter or a TIE Interceptor in that trade.

    Good thing I've run out of space for star wars figures and all they do is take up space....going to downsize my collection here soon.

    And just about a bulk of all those Star Trek Books I got a thrift store in 2 big boxes for $20! That was well over 100+ Books [I replaced many of my read condition books with the new ones....at least that box had books 1-50 + 2 of the Double Helix series TNG Books and a dozen DS9,New Frontier, and Voyager books in that box in brand new condition]

    Sold the extras on ebay last night, still have the TNG Books listed.....

    Just now I know how my fellow mega sized collection collectors feel when you run out of space....since I'm now out of space at least....time to pack stuff away.

    I love how you use the Micromaster bases for your Minicons. Pretty creative.

    Other than that, I see loads of Star Wars/Star Trek novels. Again, quite a diverse collection.

    I'm a completist when it comes to books, I don't read a book till I have the WHOLE Series....so I've got plenty to read now. Got all the Star Wars New Jedi Order Books, and Star Wars Legacy of the Force Books....and my Closet is just about full of other misc books my Tom Clancy Books...got Animorphs Book Series under my bed in a plastic storage box [Entire series of that too and the other books they released]

    Yeah I thought about using the Mini-Cons for Micromaster bases since I don't have like 4 or so of the little guys and seems a waste of all that space.

    Since my next Trekkie addition will be the Pheonix from Star Trek First Contact, and 9 or more DS9 Figures......

    I've even got Stand Ups of Picard and Spock in my closet, Hey I'll have to bring those guys out and take some pics!

    Got these from my aunt about 10 years ago when I was in the hospital, she's a trekkie too.

    They'll probably go back into the closet they're kinda freaky to have out all the time in my room....you'd think there was someone in here. Plus in the hospital we had these guys in my room in the window freaked out one of the nurses pretty good.

    He's the one you push the button on the back and he says "Damage Report" "Captain's Log Supplemental" "Engage."

    I personally Liked Sisko...he was cool soon I should have his figure and the DS9 Crew here shortly.

    My brother's got quite a number of the Star Trek figures. Trying to remember which ones... mostly the Classic and Next Generation characters, with at least one or two from DS9.

    My Star Trek Generations Figures are mixed in with my Exosquad Figures....at least I've got them on the front of the top shelf.

    Kirk and Scotty from Star Trek Generations, I always liked those Uniforms they wore in the movies better than the regular ones.

    Here's my Flea Market finds for today...though I didn't get a pic made of the Slave Leia I got as well or the TFU Vector Prime I got in mail.

    [​IMG]

    Rescued this Gunship from a box of toys and got it for about a $1,hopefully I can get more for it on e-bay or get lucky and find the parts to restore it....then sell it.

    [​IMG]

    Got lucky and found in one of the boxes where I got the Gunship for $1 found Shaak Ti, couldn't pass that up so now I got the 2 Torgutas in Star Wars that have been released into figures in my collection: Ashoka Tanno and Shaak Ti....didn't find her light saber but had a spare light saber laying about in my own collection.

    [​IMG]
    And another find at that same guy's table, the Darth Vader Unleashed Figure on the corner, lightsaber was bent slightly but got him for $2! So now he's in my Star Wars Unleashed Collection.

    Went back to the flea market today to see if that guy I bought the gunship from had anymore parts...he didn't....and he sold all his figures....

    [​IMG]
    Star Wars Legends of the Saga Set and a Destroyer droid, got the destroyer droid for less than a buck...paid $10 for the Figure Set.

    The Set just came out in stores so I got it dirt cheap at $10, Has Obi-Wan Kenobi , Luke Skywalker, Darth Maul , Boba Fett,and Darth Vader.

    The guy I've bought that from has been there all the time at the Flea Markets every month so I'm a repeat customer there every time.


    [​IMG]
    Got these comics at another table....Found two Transformers comics and a few Gi Joe Yearbook Comics.

    Transformers #5 [Shockwave on the Cover in front of a wall that says All Are Dead]
    Transformers #33
    Team Youngblood #15
    Gi Joe #27
    Gi Joe #33
    Gi Joe #62
    Gi Joe Yearbook #2
    Gi Joe Yearbook #3
    Gi Joe Yearbook #4


    And the guy I had pre-ordered Transformers ROTF Prequal Defiance #1 is giving me my money back since he's no longer ordering books now that he's pretty much out of the comic business just has to sell what he has left. Taken care of Getting That and the Fathom Volume 3 #5, along with WildCATS #7 off ebay.....

    But still I love the artwork on that poster.
