RoboDerby Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 I have only been interested in collecting for about a month now. But I am pretty thrilled with my quickly growing collection. Though I intend to take the time soon to photograph and video all of my robots, for now I thought that I would share just the wonderful additions that arrived in the mail today. My sincerest thanks to Roboz, Roboto, and Marco from VST for these incredible new treasures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoboDerby Posted April 25, 2019 Author Share Posted April 25, 2019 Here is the rest of my collection so far. I plan to break out the camera gear soon and take some better pics. Also working on finding a glass cabinet for display. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morbius Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 Dilemma is this in regard to cabinets...$$ on the cabinet or another vintage toy? Grates on us continually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grates on us continually. Actually, there are plenty of options available in the FB marketplace, many well under $100-$200 and a few even being given away. If anyone is ever seeking a deal on display cabinets, I highly recommend checking there. My issue is that many of the taller cabinets are only about 2 feet wide, which doesn’t allow many to be put on a shelf without crowding them. I have a friend who offered to give me one without shelves. But, I can have some new shelves cut at the glass shop, relatively inexpensively, I believe. It sounds like the size that I am looking for. I’m awaiting pictures from him this evening. But yes, the retail cost of any of these that are of decent quality can be discouraging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
