Hello Everyone spock2.gif

My name is Gavin from Northern Ireland - I spent all of the 90's and some of the 00's collecting as much I could find from figures to masks and everything in between.
My main passion was Playmates figures and 9" dolls which I have the full set including many varaints .
Unfortunetly by the time I was finished I had ran out of display room and virtually everything is in storage now .
Hopefully some day soon space will come avalible to bring my collection out .
For my first convention last year I gained access to one of my fav items to have it signed by Brent Spiner I will post up pics soon .

Thanks

I look forward to seeing your pictures!

This is a friendly community, but things can be slow here. I've learned to accept that threads may not get the instant feedback I've become accustomed to on other fora dealing with other aspects of the Trek interest.

All the same, these are pivotal times, with DST gearing up for another push, and Hasbro picking up part of the toy license, as well as a new line of replica ships coming from Japan. This place is bound to get busier when the toy companies do!

Nice to know theres another member from our wee country smile.gif

Thanks I will post up what I have in the collection pics section - its only a couple of items that I got out last year as I knew Brent was coming to London for a convention.

Yeah it really is good news that Star Trek has not been forgotten like many other franchises - I havent added to my Trek collection in years I stopped just after the intial releases of DST.
I am also a fan and have sizeable collections from Stargate and Farscape but my other main interest is Highlander which I still collect today mostly the swords.
