Hi, I'm maven, 27 years old today & live in the UK. How's life treating you? What consoles do own?

either of you have pics of your collections?

Maven · #4 01-13-2010, 11:06 AM

I haven't taken any pics of my collection yet. I will do so though if I can find my light-box. I only collect PS3 titles & some Wii & PC games, mainly press kits. I used to have a bigger collection in my pre-wife era but sadly all retro gaming was sold to fund a new bedroom for our first child (Had a few rare games as well). She isn't the biggest gaming fan unfortunately but excepts me the way she found me (playing Settlers 2 for hours every day). It was my birthday yesterday & hers today, she's off for a meal later with the girls so I hope to get a few pics uploaded then.

Cool...

I'm lucky to have married a woman who likes games as much as I do, we just bought some new display shelves over the weekend I got a big open one for my CE boxes and she got a glass enclosed one for her Final Fantasy Figurines.

Figures, that's a no go for me my friend. The wife goes mad about my Uncharted 2 Fortune Hunter edition cause it's so big. She's gonna have a breakdown when I recieve my Alma doll in the F.E.A.R. 2 press kit! lol

And I'd also love to get my hands on a Piggsy statue from Manhunt!

Thats AWESOME!

How'd you score a Fortune Hunter Edition anyway? Got any good pics of that, the only ones I've seen were from the original press release.

Maven · #8 01-17-2010, 02:47 AM

I did unspeakable things for that Fortune Hunter Edition like

with an ostrich &

with some KY jelly. Just kidding, I bought it from eBay for about £320. Quite cheep considering the prices some sold for. I can't find my damn camera to take some pics of my collection, but as soon as I do I'll let you know!

Welcome!

@Maven: That doll has got to be the creepiest collector's item ever!

Maven · #10 01-21-2010, 12:52 AM

That's the polite way of describing it unlike the phone call I got at work from the wife when it was delivered to my door. I'll be posting pics of my collection soon, check them out for other press items.
