V - Collection Pics - From the World's only Collector
Added another item to the collection today! Its the Resistance 45er Sound Pistol and Holder. I seen this in a Hawkes auction lot around Xmas and ended up buying it from the winner bidder of that auction on ebay. Now its only one more Arco gun to go.... the Resistance M-16.
I really admire your dedication. How did you decide on pursuing "V" to such an extent? Is it your favorite show? Or is this just one of many collections on which you focus?
Thanks very much! Yeah that was by far my favourite TV show growing up. All I had as a kid from the show was the comics, novels and pyjamas from Sears. I found about about the V LJN doll once ebay started up but in the past couple of years I've been lucky enough to stumble upon a bunch of merchandise from the US (Arco guns, Walkie talkies) and some very cool South American toys and games, they really liked V down there. I like collecting it because I'm always stumbling across something I didn't know existed, and get all excited about finding something new.
First up is 2 V Puzzles, the lizard face one I seen on some pics someone posted of the Pittsburgh toy show on this site. Its another piece that I didn't know existed and luckily it didn't sell at the show and ended up on ebay.
And finally, I've been tracking it for a year and guy finally came down $100 bucks on it and I got it....The V Bop Bag! If it wasn't sealed I would have blown it up and taken pics. I guess for now I'll have to wonder what it would be like to be punching Aliens over and over again.
I'm now looking for 1 more Puzzle although I don't know what I looks like just different from the other 3 I have.. a Cap Gun in the same style of the .38 dart gun that I have, a packaged up gun set of the .45 I already have, a grenade and binoculars, a carded V Resistance M-16, the Robotech Laser Blaster Target Set and that super expensive Uruguay V female solider figure. And maybe a custom Willie!!
I'm back with another V update! First up are the Uruguay V Figures the Female figure is Diana and the Male figure is Soldado Extraterrestre
I also found something Brian mentioned earlier in this post, Its the Robotech Laser Blaster Target Game Set, this was produced by Arco industries the guy who sold it to me said there might be V branded boxes like these but they are super rare. You can combine the parts to make either the V handgun or the Shock Trooper Rifle.
