Mick_B Posted October 6, 2017 Author Share Posted October 6, 2017 Now, to post some more of the collection ,so those who have some appreciation for the finer things in life can enjoy them. Wrapping up the group here in my office the small bots of the top shelf The middle shelf, and the big-boys from the bottom shelf. then there's the Lambda shelf sorely in need of a Lambda X (anyone wanna help a guy out?). and few more space ships: Lastly, some boxes. That is pretty much the bulk of things, I'll add new additions as they arrive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morbius Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Great all of 'em. Someone else has a set of Llambda's, terrific! *Altaira especially liked the musical ones with the changing colours when she was a toddler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just had a friend in today I've known since he was 5 years old, younger brother of a friend. He just beamed looking at the stuff monster kits, robots and everything else. As I said to him this afternoon, "You're the only one I know locally who appreciates all of this, no one else gets it or cares". Another life-long friend always says "Why do you keep all this dust-collecting junk if it's worth money?" I say if I got rid of it I wouldn't be me, AT ALL.

Mick_B Posted October 31, 2017 Author Share Posted October 31, 2017 a couple of Metal House boxes arrived this week and last. Happy Halloween to me! Red Space Evil Robot with yellow eyes, just like Scut Farkus. I'll tell the Mrs he's a Christmas decoration. Then these 2: had to snap these guys up the moment I saw them. A New Meter Robot and Energy Robot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice piece, hope you land it soon! Thanks for the comments. I used to see a couple Lambda X's listed on and off, but they seem to have gone to ground lately. Until then, I guess I'll keep grabbing up whatever see to fill in holes in the rest of the collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't believe my luck when I came across those two. didnt hesitate for fear someone else saw them too. I really like their designs and they really round out my group of MH robots. I didnt have any green or yellow in the group, and am proud these two are representing those colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick_B Posted May 21, 2018 Author Share Posted May 21, 2018 I've been looking and bidding on some space guns lately, (not winning) but it got me to pull out the collection and go through it. Reminding myself of what I have so I avoid duplicates, and know what could be replaced if I see a better condition piece. Many sit amongst the robots and space toys, but my goal is to put together some shadow box frames and hang them all on the wall. That said, here's the Mick_B Space Gun collection: I hadnt realized until posting those all in one place but thats almost 60 guns. I'm gonna need bigger shadow box. and in review I think I spotted 2 duplicates already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
