New Collection - first besta filled!

[paulromi]

Just started collecting less than two months ago...and my first besta has just been filled.

 

[Balsquat]

best besta ever

 

[paulromi]

thanks - what are the thoughts on the model endo arm next to my grail?

 

[Balsquat]

I love it, though I think painting the base might be a good idea. It looks like wood from what i can make out in the picture. When i think Terminator, wood is the last thing i would associate with it.

 

[paulromi]

That was a light oak cabinet sample I got from work - lol I didn't know if I should go chrome or black. I just wanted to get it displayed for now while I decide on color.

 

[paulromi]

Since there is so much detail on the terminator I was going to get some mirrors for the top shelf to show it off.

How much did you get the Arnold and the Endo-arm for??

How much did you get the Arnold and the Endo-arm for??

Arnold was $930 shipped to Canada from Florida I think, the endo was a kit from hong kong and put together myself....I think it was about $60 or so...do a search on my username for another posting on it.

- you said it brotha!

Gonna go pick up another besta for my hellboy pf that should be here in a couple of weeks - I've got a deal pending on the sideshow predator maquette - but waiting to pull the trigger for a day or two.

how many PF can those Besta shelves fit - I didn't realize they were that large?? Indy and Mystique on one shelf has me thinking I may have to pick up some Bestas

A single unit like this can hold around 6 with 2 per shelf.

 

[slynger]

didn't mean to hijack your thread paulromi - simply stating that your besta unit looks very classy and I'm diggin' your setup.

thanks for the info bonedaddy!

How's the pricing on those? I would like to start putting my PFs in cases, but the cost always turns me away.

Looks good.

I'd say a black base for the Endo arm... silver would blend in too much.

Yeah man and is it a pain in the ass to build?

 

[paulromi]

Well in Canada, it was $89 for the besta and $45.00 each for the glass doors. so it wasn't too bad. They hold a lot of weight - I believe 66 pounds per shelf. It took about an hour to put together....not too bad.

Thats a nice setup. And quite a collection for only two months of collecting. I told myself that I would only get the endoskull, which was my first collectible but these sideshow products are addicting and I find myself looking for more and more.

 

[paulromi]

Mystique and the Abe were gifts for valentines day from my wife. The others were all purchases by me....addicting to say the least!

BD endo
Hellboy PF
T-1000 Legendary bust
Predator 1 diorama

Those should all be here in the next couple of weeks

T-800 PF on pre-order
T-700 & T600 pre-order

I am seriously thinking about the predator maquette - I'm on the fence because it is so damn expensive - any thoughts?
