Re: My Current Collection (Lots of pics)

Mike,

I collect just to collect. I usually don't have any intention of modifying them.

The number I have now is nothing compared to some others I've seen...

Good thing I haven't registered for Ebay yet.

To me, collecting these is more like getting cars I know I will never own much less afford.

Re: My Current Collection (Lots of pics)

I guess I'm not used to seeing built models all shown at once. The guys in the other model forum have thousands of unbuilt models...its crazy.
