Hey Erik. The fact that your Jumbos is just a side part of you collection makes it even more impressive. I mean, ok I focus jumbos but it's only that and you collection is not that far from me, what would it be if you just focus on Jumbos???? :o

As for Saito and Tom, well, they're like UFO in this hobby, pioneer on the first age, both have an almost complete collection like probably nobody.
But I have to say that with FB now, I've met more and more super impressive collector from around the world and there's collections out there we can't even imagine. We see only the people who wants to share and discuss about the hobby but there's a so huge amount of Jumbo collectors out there, it's insane.
Even here in my country I know at least 3 people who have an impressive collection. There's rumors of big player in HK who claim to have a complete collection most of them MIB and when they say complete, it's supposed to be with a real K7 and all that.

I dream of beeing able to travel the world and see all those great collections around the world.

@sjoen: thanks dude! i gotta say, your display at super7 was great motivation and inspiration for me.

@mikedeco: when i was a kid in mexico, my cousin had collected an impressive amount of jumbos -jugarama, mattel, popy, and bootleg italian juniors. lucky guy! i know of at least three collectors here in los angeles who are not involved on the boards or fb whose jumbos make me drool :) :) :) i am sure the jumbos are out there, waiting to be found. ( hopefully by me ;) )

Well, here's my shelves... this was after I had joined RJ
back in 2006.

Today I have much less of my collection with me,
while all of my best hauls are stashed safely at
my mom's house in Puerto Rico.
I kept just a few items with me at home and I'm
about to do some late-spring-cleaning and
reorganize what I already have. lol

My Tetsujin-28 came in today. As you can see from the picture, he's not in the best shape. Aside from missing the mohawk on his head, he's also missing the rear rocket launchers and leg missiles. The stickers and paint are rough as well.

I've already contacted Kitsir and will be sending him out to him in the next few weeks. I posted him here as he is a new addition to my collection. I will eventually post photos of the T-28 once Kitsir does his magic.

My Voltron is looking way better now with some new stickers and the added 14" sword.
Now all I need to find is a decent remote for his stand.
A big thank you to Willohio for all his help!

Voltron is looking great Derik! It's a blessing repro parts are done so well. There is no difference from the originals.

I sent my T-28 out to Kitsir yesterday. I can't wait for him to work his magic. I will post some photos when I get him back.

ive got parts of the mattel 2012 voltron. from a distance the colors look nice and juicy just like the cartoon. up close you can see the cheapness and the gimmicks like the stupid key idea plague the parts i have. the design flaws like the gray paint at the joints instead of molded gray plastic. i have the red and yellow lions.
