I came across this website a few days ago and thought I might introduce myself. I have been gaming since the mid-90's when I was a little squirt but I have only gotten into collecting game memorabilia the past couple years. I mostly collect artwork, signatures and soundtracks but I also have a couple figures. Pictures to come in near future.

Here is some of my collection. I have other pieces I am waiting on (in post or getting framed) and more scattered between two locations. I will update with images periodically in the next few weeks but here is what I can show so far. Sorry if images have glare, lighting situation is a bit difficult.

That sucks about "The Team" litho. I have not had the best time with Fedex but never had anything go outright missing. For me they tend to take twice or three times as long as they should to get items to me. The "Prototype SR2" spent 2.5 weeks in South Carolina in limbo and the person I bought it from really hassled them about it on my behalf. Funny enough once he did that it took only two more days to reach me. I am currently waiting on an awesome LE poster (not game related). I am in Florida, it shipped from California. It has spent more time in Georgia (4 business days) than it took to get to that point.

Had this one for a while but have not posted it since it is not officially licensed, so far as I know, and different from most of the other things I have. However I think it is very nice and nostalgic.

Really nice art collection here Tacoshark! Do you just collect art prints from TreeHouse Store?

I see that you collect prints that are non game related too. I recently bought a few Avengers prints after visiting the Avengers: Age of Ultron Art Showcase launched by Marvel and Hero Complex Gallery. Not sure if you like them, but some of the prints I saw at the gallery are amazing. Well, this is the first time I bought movie prints.. xD

I have stuff from other places, Treehouse just makes a lot of nice video game art that is fairly easy to get before selling out. As a result much of my collection comes from them. All my Halo stuff (not all of it up) comes from Acme among other places. I also have a giclee from C&B (plan to get more) and more giclees from other places.

I'll take a look at the HCG store and see if there is anything that peaks my interest.

I also have stuff that is not gaming or media related. I am a marine biologist so I get things regularly from Pangeaseed, for example.

Nice! I've been trying to pick up that Halo 2 Litho as I've seen it pop up on eBay from time to time -- thought I had it for a steal last year around June or so iirc, but ended up going for WAY more than I thought it was worth! Nice find!

Last week I promised something very special but I am holding off for a little while since I like posting items in clusters, often with a theme, and there are a few I won't have for at least a couple weeks. So instead I am going with more movie-related posters, but as promised something very special is included.

Wow Taco I'm so glad you pick up the Avengers piece. It looks stunning when I look at it with my own eyes. Photo somehow don't do it justice.

And I was contemplating to get that Star Wars piece by Tim Doyle! But I past it.. now looking at it it is amazing. Need to budget.

And did u find out Craig Drake from HCG too? He had a show last week and most of his artwork are instant sold out. I really like the one he did for Bruce Lee.. and Smaug is an amazing piece too.

Congrats buddy! Hope u will get more artwork!

I sort of agree with the Ultron piece, it is really hard to get the contrast and the metallic sheen that gives it that extra-cool look to show up on a photo but I tried.

With Craig Drake it was actually the other way around, I found out about HCG from a listing for the Smaug print. I would have tried to get a couple of things from that gallery but I have made a couple of very large purchases recently so I need to hold off for a little while.

Go to the link above. It is his Solo Show just ended last week. Most of the artworks are gone, but there are a few left to pick up.

Like I mentioned earlier, there will be another Craig Drake solo show II coming. So keep watch on that website. Or you can like their FB page or twitter.

I have a large portfolio case that I keep a lot of my stuff in. I will actually need to get a second one very soon as it is pretty full and I have a small stack outside of it waiting to be either framed or stored. I live in a grad dorm that is the equivalent of a studio apartment right now so only the really cool stuff is on the walls due to space limitations (i.e. Mondos, Jaws, Jurassic World, etc.)

Thank you, I was lucky in getting those Mondos before they sold out.

Those fossils and many others in my collection came from a shop near where I grew up. The claw came from the personal collection of the founder/owner of the store and he sold it for 1.6k. The Psittacosaurus originally went for 4.5k but he did a special deal for me and I got in for 4k. The Psittacosaurus is a little over 2 ft in diameter

Also that Saren litho is awesome! Gratz :D

Thank you. I have the ME Saga and the others in protectors for now but I will probably get the Saga print properly framed when I have the chance. I'm so close to having all the ME lithos, only 6 to go

Made me very jealous of your new added prints Taco :(

:snoop::trogdor::snoop:

Nice to hear. I recently got some more super-rare stuff that I will put up soon so stay tuned.

Here is a small update. Some Game of Thrones stuff. I also have the first three books signed by GRRM but I don't have them with me so I can't post pics of them. Got more Mondos and lithographs to show, will probably have Uncharted and Last of Us in the next post. It will be video game related, I promise. If anyone is interested I also have RvB stuff I got signed while at RTX.

Waiting on a few things here and there so I am putting up some randoms, IPs for which I only have 1 item. I am not getting as much stuff nowadays as money has to go to other things (hospital bills, electronic repairs). However, I still have plenty of Mondos and vinyls to put up and will do so as time and health allow.

:banghead: you and I have the same thoughts. I gave up on this one, and I regret it.

I think you still can grab it from ebay, if you are willing to pay about 2x the original price (around 80-100 USD), and that is if you are lucky.

Happy Halloween all. Here are my Destiny Giclees (may put up better pictures at a later date)

Fireteam (2/50)
I originally ordered #1 but I later found out it was an error on C&B's part making that number publicly available as it was supposed to be reserved. As a result they gave me #2.

Btw taco, mind I ask what is that transparent sleeve that you keep your cert in?

It is a protective poster sleeve, I have the certs in the same ones as the giclees. The purpose for them is twofold. I always take prints out of the tube to check the condition and number. Rather than rolling them back up and putting them back in the tube, which I find annoying, I put them in these transparent sleeves to protect them from damage while still being able to see them. The second is storage efficiency. In the same space 4 shipping tubes take up I can stand 15 or 20 of these, and since I live in the equivalent of a studio apartment space is very limited. I also store them away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.

I get most of mine through amazon since the prices are nice and I get free two-day shipping with Prime for Ultra-Pro sleeves, which I like more. Depending on the size you need these are the ones I usually order. I have only had one out of maybe 50 arrive damaged.

No prob. For the C&B prints just double check the measurements yourself. Some like the Ship Graveyard and Traveler I have shown are a few inches too long for the 24x36 so they stick out. If you need the next size up this is the one if have for both of them.

I wanted to wait to post this piece, or the next round of stuff period, but a minor calamity has provided me an opportunity to highlight recent questions about the protectors I use. Yesterday the cheap, POS bookcase my parents bought for me collapsed. The power strip I keep nearby as well as the plug for my external hard drive were damaged as well as two of my toes. Anyway, I kept a few of these sleeves propped up against the bookcase and a lot of stuff fell on them. The brunt of this was taken by a C&B giclee in an XL sleeve. As you can see, the sleeve was damaged by all the stuff that fell on it.
