    Hey guys! I know I don't post here often (I'm more of a lurker :p) But I thought I'd post you my collection of gaming wares! There aren't many imports/very rare items due to the fact that I'm an 18 year old student....most of this has come from 5 years worth (oh lord has it really been that long? XD) of boot fairs, second hand shops and garage sales. I get what I can in my budget XD I also love halo and have a small collection of memorobelia. Its got nothing on most of the collections on here, but here goes!

    Awesome collection! You have a lot more items than I had when I was your age. Keep going with the Halo collection, you've got some awesome figures!

    Very nice collection you've got there!

    Loved the Halo figurines, must be a pain in the ass to keep them clean from dust though.

    Maybe you could buy a glass display in the near future for those figurines, I bet that would help a lot, and you'd still have them on show :dance:

    Great stuff you've got in your collection.

    Im really not sure! I think one of the rarest has to be the Zelda twilight princess HMV tin, only 200 or so were made apparently and you could only get them at the London HMV store on the launch day. The Atelier Iris 2 box set I'd also consider pretty rare, along with some of the more popular boxed complete snes/n64 stuff C: Also I guess the Zelda GBA could be lumped in there too, took me a while to find one in the wild cheap XD

    Halo merch wise.....probably the two player lazer tag set and the orange hayabusa/red and silver elite figures, they're pretty sought after ^^


    And am currently on the lookout for a display cabinet, when I find a display cabinet cheap enough, I'm definately gonna grab it!

    Thanks for the interest guys!

    yeah. My mom's husband was going to throw out an electronics shelving unit with a glass door. I built a back for it and turned in into a free glass storage for my stuff....best score ever! Having expensive rare stuff sitting around just is too risky. I also spent a crapload of money on getting custom made super famicom box plastic cases. And building cases for my arcade pcbs out of 8$ walmart tupperwares and 5$ computer fans definitely was a good idea.

    It's actually a spring loaded cart holder (yes I know....a singular cart holder, totally pointless!). One of the little curios I've stumbled upon :) I've seen a banjo kazooie version in someone else's collection as well, so there must be more different types out there.

    Great collection and very well organized. I wish i had that ammount of space for my stuff.

    This lazer set brought me memories. When i was a kid, i had one of those but from Zillion Franchise.

    hey guys! Thank you for all the nice comments! Just a quick update:

    [​IMG]

    The Halo SDCC mask (finally :))
    Chrono Trigger and the art of dead space book were gifts from two very close friends of mine. The Dead space even has a set of 3D glasses and some 3D pics! Nogistagia bomb for sure!

    And also a friend told me to post this here, as it seems to be considered a part of my 'collection'...

    [​IMG]

    One of my GCSE final pieces I did a few years ago. All done in markers, and has pride of place on my wall :) Once I get some good posters though I'll probably replace it with them :)

    And thanks again for all the nice comments!

    hey guys, just another quick update, all halo things this time:

    [​IMG]
    First pic: Halo: combat evolved strategy guide, promotional Halo 3 stickers, and Joyride Halo 2 warthog with passengers. And some nice rare halo figures :)

    Blue/Yellow elite: wal-mart and toys R us exclusive, I now have all but one of the elites released so far, and I have both the rare exclusives
    Orange Scout: UK Gamestation/Aus Target exclusive.
    Hellspartan SDCC exclusive: limited to 3000 pieces. An EVA spartan painted in Spawn colours. Probably my rarest figure so far and the one I've been wanting the most, being a Spawn fan :)

    [​IMG]
    and finally the second halo Kubrick set (I love these little guys, they are so damn cute!) and two more joyride figures, one being the Prophet of Regret from halo 2 and the other being a White multiplayer Spartan from halo: Combat evolved, this one has the box but he looked nicer out (I tried getting him to hold the flamethrower, but no luck :crying:)

    Thanks for checking out the update! This Halo collection is quickly spreading at an alarming rate, its starting to move onto my other shelves now! :lol:
