Explains just part of it. Read one of my older posts and you'll see why I don't collect figures anymore ;)

Daggone, that one looks sweet Serg. Ah, I wish I had your higher end walker items!

One day my friend, one day ;) I said the same and one day I had them too.

I was looking a long time for this and glad I finally found it. Now just to get a regular Vader's TIE for under $100 and I'm done with Code 3 :)

Comparison shot next to the AT-AT:

Serg, I am noticing a few differences between this new hasbro atst and this one. I might have to do a side by side in the hasbro atst thread and then add a movie shot of an atst and then we can decide which is more accurate. I bet I know which one is. I still wish that atat knew how to fly or float its way over here.

Nice outdoors shot. Tamer, notice those feet on Sergio's atst. They look like the ones on the newnhasbro atst.

Yepper, perhaps the new hasbro one is more realistic than the old ones. I need to do those comparison shots though.

By the way, I liked the video review. Front paged it.

Hollywood Collector's Gallery 1:1 Endoskull bust (clean version) joined my Sideshow 1:1 Endoskull combat:









And a temporary display at the new house ;), these are the 2 cabinets where my collection will be displayed next year. Lots of statues and figures still need to be moved from the apartment where I live now or to be taken out of the boxes. This is a preview, a teaser :D

Nice Serg, I do like that new bust, but especially those custom cases with the full glass doors. I am seriously looking to make a few like that under my game mounts in my SW Den downstairs.

Thanks!

I can't wait to have the Star Wars shelves filled up: Gentle Giant statues, Kotobukiya statues, some props and replicas, Sideshow and Medicom RAH figures plus some Action Fleet/MicroMachines and Hasbro action figures - all Imperials of course with just a few exceptions ;) . The Star Wars section in my room will be on the right side cabinet which is a bit larger than the left one - the right side one is made of 3 cabinets and the left side of 2 cabinets each with 5 shelves (see the second pic above).

All shelves fit 12" and even 13" figures/statues, but there are some collectibles taller than that, and thus I already talked to the company who made these to raise a shelf on each cabinet (that makes 5 shelves in total) making those a bit taller. The taller ones will be the ones on the top side at the same level with the HCG 1:1 Endoskull and the Code 3 AT-ST. That's why I said this is a temporary display.

Also the non-SW shelves need to be updated with my Hot Toys Predators and Terminators, Sideshow 1:1 Endoskull bust (next to the already displayed HCG 1:1 Endoskull bust), Appleseed and GITS Hot Toys figures plus all the anime figures that are displayed right now in the apartment where I live and which will be brought to the new house in these cabinets only when I move completely.

So this is work in progress...
