haha thanks guys. you both have some solid collections. i really dig the cool grey 11's.

i will throw some more pics up once i take some solid shots.

also, i should be hearing about the raffle tomorrow to pick up the gamma 11's as well.


latest pickups have been:

janoski "mandarin digi-camo"



air max 1 "monotones" - no pic yet.

sb dunk high "send help 2"






my favorites are my statue of liberty dunks and the brain wrecks (no pic yet).



i also have some supras, vans, and a rare pair of android homme shoes called "space monsters", which they only made 40 pairs, and they're made out of some crazy material that astronauts use and it changes color from white to black and shades of grey when they move…. really weird and unique.

i do have pics of them and other shoes on my instagram - demolitionjim

so does anyone else collect anything other than shoes?

[kscarrol]

^^ Ha! I chimed in early on with something other than shoes but quickly got left behind as the Air Jordan's overwhelmed the thread...

[Billup]

There's a shoe thread, shoe posts should be moved to that one.

Aircraft models.

Awesome! Do you only collect commercial jets, or all kinds? I've always loved planes, I was an intern for the USAF and worked on the C-5 Galaxy and also interned at Gulfstream working on their G250/350/450 and the 650 before release

HAHA...sorry!


I also have a crazy POG collection and some nice Basketball and Baseball cards...of course I have a Jordan basketball card! haha

There in boxes stored away so not sure if I'll find the will to post them.

[kscarrol]

No worries! No one said you couldn't post about shoe collections...

Do you build any of the Lego sets? I've got a couple sets myself, but I don't know if I want to go ahead and start collecting.

This is my favorite. I thought about buying another one and keeping it in the box in case the collector value goes up like some of the older star wars sets. Saw it at a Lego store once and decided I had to have it based on the size alone, I'm not that big of a Star Wars fan.
Decided to nerd out and watch the whole saga as I built it and thats exactly how long it took. Started building when episode 1 started and put the last part on as episode 6 ended, 13 hours for 3152 pieces.

I have some USAF,RAF,Luftwaffe etc. transport planes...

I collect:
-Star Wars novels (not comics) - I have most of the ones written since 1977.
-Star Wars Legos - not really anymore, but I do have a decent collection of the ones made up until 2001 including the big Ultimate Collection TIE Interceptor (#7181) model which are quite valuable nowadays.
-Physical music CDs for artists I really like; I make it a mission to collect everything they've produced which has always proved challenging mainly because often no complete list of what they produced exists. Currently trying to collect all of BT's music.

Oh yeah, they're still in boxes though since I haven't taken them out since I moved a couple months ago. That is an awesome set and I can definitely see it increasing in value.

My favorites are the large scale architectural series models. I have the Taj Mahal, Eiffel Tower, and the Tower Bridge. The Taj Mahal took my wife and I about 16 hours!
