CJJ's NEW Collection Thread

[***First of Two Latin Kings***]

I can't seem to find the old one, maybe when it turns up a moderator can merge?

Took these pictures this afternoon:





These will probably go back in storage soon so that I can put new stuff out, I'd like to photograph my entire collection eventually.

Edit: Just for the record, my sister moved into my room after I moved out, and when I had to move home I got a bigger room, but also a room with embarrassingly feminine wall-paper.

Sweet collection!
I love seeing pics of the figs displayed, as opposed to MOC.
It's like a game of eye-spy... Movie Star Raph *drools*

As for the wallpaper, no worries... you can't help for her bad taste.

But the dresser does look like it'd belong to the Shredder!

I have that one MOC for awhile and listed it for sale, Andrewdsz only wanted the card so I cracked it open and sold him the card and kept the figure. Those are all mint/complete (except a few of them no longer have their collector cards).

Actually, I'm pretty sure that wallpaper was already up when my parents bought the house.

One would think that, but actually it rarely ever happens.

Great looking collection, man. I like the way it's displayed.

I'd like to ask for a closeup of the purple custom Shredder. I know there's one somewhere else in the forums, but that one is a little blurry.

No problem, I'll see if I can use my sister's camera again when she gets home.

Thanks, man. The combination of a Mutations Shredder head with a Foot Soldier / Movie 3 guard body seems to be a great one.

Yeah...I destroyed a MOC Movie Star Foot Soldier as well as a loose/MINT/COMPLETE Mutatin' Shredder to make that. Glad someone likes it though. Personally, I like the more Mirage one better, but that's just me. At some point I may try to do an even more screen accurate Secret of the Ooze Shredder.

I used the head from 2007 Shredder--I had one laying around from when I destroyed a Shredder to make my Raph as Shredder custom, the thread to which has bogged down somewhere on these boards.

nice collection CJJ!

[Nelson]

Hey man, thanks for he closeup. It really is a nice custom. I'd love to steal that idea and make one for myself. Too bad Mutatin' Shredder is hard to come by...

NOOOOO!!!!

[Samhain]

Good stuff! Dust that display though dude!

[***First of Two Latin Kings***]

I hate dusting...you're the second person who has said that.

There are going to be a lot more pictures posted shortly, I'm going to replace ALL of the loose/incomplete stuff I have that would be hard to complete with MOC stuff that I will open or loose/complete stuff in good condition and sell off all of my incomplete odds and ends, except stuff that has sentimental value. I'm putting all of the loose/complete stuff on display and photographing it before it gets packed away.

[***First of Two Latin Kings***]

This surface is continuing to evolve...I have had that loose/complete Headdroppin' Leo for a VERY long time, and have had Don for a couple of years...the last two I purchased within the last couple weeks.

The Pizza Tossin' Turtles were MOC on cards in rough shape until today.

Spike n' Volley Don was missing one accessory until early this week.

nice collection man, yeah I think its time to invest in some Ikea Detolf display cases. They are only like $50 and you can find others on craigslist for cheaper then that used.
