Why yes, I do.
I have a few 12" GI Joes still. Actual clothing, weapons with detachable magazines, working folding stocks, hard plastic 'kevlar' helmets, the works. One's a WW2 Ranger with a BAR. They've been stuffed in a box somewhere for about 12 years

Just picked up this today: [t]http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-8GGMKH60p14/UnL9zBVkIlI/AAAAAAAACRo/xk3WWRs_r_U/s1600/IMG_3584.jpg[/t] Gonna see if I can find Hornigold and Black Bart somewhere. Also hoping they release one of "James Kidd."
Have these as collectables, heck yeah (not my shelves lol) [URL=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/827/qamm.jpg/][IMG]http://img827.imageshack.us/img827/2111/qamm.jpg[/IMG][/URL]
37 posts in and noone has even mentioned the words "Action Man" yet? This makes me sad. Those fucking things were the bomb. 90% of everything else was careless plastic money whoring produced for the biggest return possible.
I collect Lionel trains... Every week.. 24/7... But no pictures
I've got a 1:18 scale Sherman, M3 Halftrack, sdkfz 251/1 and asdkfz 251/10 with the bridge layings. I used to have a big ass 1:18 TBF1 Avenger, but it got thrown away when I was younger. Other than that I've got a bunch of model planes around my room.
Anyone else ever have these?

Looks like Games Workshop models. I've got a shit load of them. :v: But I don't buy them anymore because they're so fucking expensive.
Yeah it was Games Workshop but LOTR, they were the bees knees
[QUOTE=Chickens!;43422700]Yeah it was Games Workshop but LOTR, they were the bees knees[/QUOTE] I've still got my goblin army somewhere. Gonna have to dig that out someday.
Can this be the general hobbies thread? Because I know a dedicated R/C thread would die. I'm a nitro technician and general R/C guru, and I want to see my fellow R/C'ers represent!

I have some tau firewarriors and a shas'ui sitting around somewhere. Used to collect GW stuff but man is it way to pricey these days.

[QUOTE=Makol;43458314]current wip [t]http://i.imgur.com/0xc4ubO.jpg[/t][/QUOTE] what scale is that? don't tell me you managed to do one of the old 1/144's justice, you're talented as fuck if you're able to do that
It's a 1/100th scale kit. I was trying to fix up an old 1/144th Endless Waltz Heavyarms kit, but I don't have the tools needed to do that.
[QUOTE=RayvenQ;43447371]You'll love this guy then [url]http://www.1-6th.co.uk/[/url] Kinda fucking insane.[/QUOTE] IIRC hes a member on another forum I frequent. Pro tip, 1/6 shit has a huge, expensive market. Ive made ~500 dollars since october doing water slide decals for them.
Looks like someone beat me to the punch. I've been meaning to make an action figure/figurine/whatever thread for a while now. Truth be told I'm a huge action figure nerd and my room is totally flooded with all different kinds. I'll try and get some pictures working soon.
Since the Gaim figuarts were being discussed earlier: [t]http://i.imgur.com/fd5u8zf.jpg[/t] Main four got confirmed.
Lost this a few years back, still miss it [IMG]http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51PXGljS%2BaL.jpg[/IMG]
If I was home I would post my actual "toy soldier" collection as I literally have thousands of them along with hundreds of tanks, jeeps, trucks etc. to support them in their wars I have them wage. I never really grew out of plastic army men for some reason and every year my army just gets larger and larger.

[QUOTE=Virtanen;43628941]Sorry for offtopic, but does this battle happen at any point in the actual game?[/QUOTE] Not in the actual game, but IIRC it's showing the rest of the battlefield for the third and fourth missions of Halo 3. Also, here's them making it, done entirely in-character: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rnCs46FEtqA[/media]
[QUOTE=S33T;43462911]I play 40k...I play Tyranids, I have a few friends that play IG and one guy that plays Tau.[/QUOTE] Fellow nid player represent. I have the tyranid battleforce thing, some gargoyles and a hive tyrant. Recently picked up the Harpy/Hive crone which is about 50% complete, just haven't got the time to finish it all. I also can't paint for shit which doesn't help at all
