Title: Some of my collection
Post by: morgardee on July 19, 2012, 09:04:50 AM
Just a few pictures of my rec room.

MOC figures, convention figures, signed figures and the original poster that came with  mail away magazine from the 80's. I had the poster mounted on a board with white trim.

I got a lot more. I just took a few pics. Really I was just talking with a fellow Joe Canuck member about MOC figures and said I have the white Jinx on my display wall. I thought I'd show it. I can take more pictures at another time if anyone wants to see the rest of the room.

SNAKES:

(http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r73/morgardee/Dye%20Jobs/Joerecroom2012jpg6-1.jpg)

Wall mounted glass shelves from Ikea. I actually ripped down all the 70's paneling  in this room and put up sheet rock just so I could counter sink these. The only protrude about 2 inches from the wall.

Cobra side:

That's a custom that was from a fellow named Phil at Joe Customs. For a few years he was doing an unofficial Joe Customs convention figure for those who went to the GIJCC conventions. I got this from the GIJCC 2011 convention. I was there in person so I hand no issues getting mine.

The body is a Crimson Guard (maybe shadow guard) and the arms and legs are from a BAT (v2). The head was cast as was the helmet. It's a neat custom and one I'm happy to own.

One of the coolest things about him is the plastic shell. It opens up along the outside edges so you have 100% access to the toy inside. It's the only shell I've seen like that.

60 inch TV for gaming on. I threw up CoD just because I didn't want to be seen in the reflection. The sunlight room the window threw off the picture so it looks dingy downstairs. It's really not dim like that:

Chrome Xbox  ;):

My newest guitar is absent from this picture as it's getting done, but this is how the most recent convention sets look:

A feeling for the room:

(http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r73/morgardee/Dye%20Jobs/Joerecroom2012jpg.jpg)

Cobra figures around the top of the room. I built those mini shelves myself. :

Rec room computer desk. I'm thinking I might want to get rid of the PC downstairs and replace it with a set of digital drums at some point. I have laptops and a PC upstairs and I've got a desire to take up the drums some day:

Hey man, your room is awesome.  Amazing stuff and display.  I would like to have your room.

....Shiny is good ;)

Here's the work out room, and before anyone asks, yes, the room is painted yellow. Why? It was a dank room that I framed and dry walled, including the ceiling and did the floor. It was one of my past summer projects. In fact our very own Dead Shot did the electrical in this room. Anyhow, it's a yellow room. My bottom bathroom I had built is orange.  ;)

It's hard to make out what the figures are. The bottom row is Joe (25th, movie and some convention stuff in the back). The top row is Cobra.

It's not a perfect room. As you can see I have a massive chimney exhaust on running into the top shelf but you gotta work with what you got.

You have an awesome collection morg!  8) ..my favorite item in there is that boxed Canadian Mauler.. Wow!
Title: Re: Some of my collection
Post by: formbx257 on July 24, 2012, 07:47:56 PM
I thought you showed everything before, but you have even more cool stuff!
Love the "Avro Arrow" Skystriker!
Title: Re: Some of my collection
Post by: morgardee on July 24, 2012, 08:45:18 PM
Thanks guys. And for the record, that Mauler is MISB.  ;)

The Avro Arrow is from those awesome dudes at Cobrastickers.com. I love what they put out.

Also, that doesn't include all the ARAH stuff and vehicles that are packed away in storage. The plan is to some day build an extension to the kitchen and another room off our bedroom and since I have to go down 6 feet for the foundation, I might as well go 8 feet giving me a new, dedicated Joe room running 10 x 30 feet.

That's the dream anyhow.

Nice collection Morgardee. Love the '80s poster and the boxed Mauler. Did you ever expand your room?
