What was your 1st Sideshow Collectible?

[Skiman]

Original Balrog

Arrived broken, returned it and I never bothered getting another

 

[Morrigan]

Mine was Vega the interchangeable head version. It was love at first site, i had to buy him.

 

[Silent December]

I think it was 12" Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker

 

[fantasymaker]

Luke Jedi Knight .

 

[spidermonkey]

The first thing I preordered was the 1:1 Wolf bust. The first thing that arrived was the Thing PF ex.

 

[Tiny Eli]

My first piece was the exclusive Captain America PF off of ebay. Had a small cloth rub on the stomach and the girder on the base broken in half but it was a good price.

 

[budafett]

Indiana Jones Fertility Idol! I love it and then got myself a 1:1 Iron Man bust! I do want the 1/4 Iron Man statue with the American flag though...

 

[RJMacReady16]

Jedi Luke.

Still have that huge-headed bastard.

 

[devilof76]

I think it was 12" Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker

Whoa. Took you a bit to get here, huh?

 

[NASEDO]

It might have been SSW Grima Statue

 

[VoidDweller]

The Stormtrooper was my first Sideshow produced collectible. Stormtroopers have always been my favorite from the Star Wars universe.

 

[jkno]

Premium Format Darth Vader for me, and he is still boxed but hopefully not for long...

 

[firefly2121]

First was Iron Man Comiquette non-EX, first SW was Darth Vader EX PF.

 

[d_jedi1]

Modern Connor MacLeod (and to think that I felt he was outrageously high-priced back then)
My second and third SSC figures were bought at the same time... ROTS Anakin and Nosferatu. Been hooked since.

 

[Master Wayne]

Hellboy PF

 

[piccolodaimaoh]

Frankenstein's Monster all the way back in 1999. I bought it online for like 30.00 which was considered collectible prices at the time. I loved that figure and I think I still own it.

 

[galactiboy]

I'm not a 100% sure but I think the first was the 8" Creature from the Black Lagoon. I almost bought the entire first series when they were on the shelves at Wal-Mart, but never pulled the trigger.

Around the same time, possibly before that I ordered the R Lee Ermey figure direct from Sideshow as a gift for my brother. That was the only direct buy from them until the SW line started.

The first 1/6 Sideshow figure from them that I bought for myself was the Vampyre. That figure was a game changer for me. I had never owned a high-end 1/6 figure and was blown away by the articulation and how good the figure was. Now around 150 1/6 figures later that figure still holds an important spot in my collection

 

[The Ringer]

1/6th Anakin.

 

[Puay]

Haven't I seen this thread before...?

Anyway mine is the 1/6 scale WWI French trooper.

 

[choopie]

LOTR "No admittance except on party business" bookends when Sideshow was selling it directly on their site. Second piece was the SW/WETA Easterling statue. My collection has changed countless times since then and sadly I no longer have either piece.
