How big is yours (collection)?

olifant · Post by **olifant** » Fri Jul 20, 2007 10:13 am

I am wondering how bad my collecting disease is compared to the others here. I have only 5 1/18 AC, 18 1/32 AC, 15 1/72 AC, 70 1/32 vehicles and 25 1/72 vehicles. My wife both wants me in therapy and the collection out of my (her) office and spare bedroom. I can't wait until the kids start to leave so I have more room.

Is it terminal?

Of course it's terminal. Everything is.

You don't expect to collect forever, do you?

But get a basement and a storage facility.

My collection now ranges around the 325 mark, with the majority being 1/72 scale, but I also have 50 or so 1/48, 1/32, 1/24 and 1/18 planes..
My wife ignores my hobby hoping it'll go away...

I have 200 or so 1/32, 100+1/48-50, 300+/- 1/72.

26 1:32 AFVs
03 1:32 guns (IG.18, PaK 40, 88mm)
07 1:72 planes
33 1:72 AFVs
01 1:48 AFV

So altogether, 70 items. It sounds like a lot, but it doesn't look like it.

71 if I get the 21C Firefly.

Oh, and yes, I would call it terminal considering that your wife will kill you if you take over more space in your home

85 1:32 Vehicle's, figures
20 or so 1:32 planes
10 1:72 planes

20 or so 1:18 figures not that im really
into 1:18 but I bought them anyway.
30 1/144 scale tanks half tracks etc...

And various other small things not really worth to mention. So altogether 200 items. And trust me I am running out of space.

Since you said 1:72 and up, I think mine should fall in the X-Large category

1. Around 80 1:32 pieces (vehicles and larger artillery pieces)
2. 14 1/72 vehicles

This for vehicles/aircraft only or are figures to be counted?

I just got into 1:32 back in march or so and 1:72 aircraft recently. MUCH easier to collect if you don't have a lot of room!

I have twenty 1:72 aircraft, mostly Corgi and Easy Model. I just picked up the Corgi Fighter Ace series Capt Robin Olds P-38 and it is just awesome! I've looked at some of the high-end 1:72 stuff, B-25's, B-26 and such and they are really impressive. The hobby shop has some of the Franklin Mint 1:48 Armour series that are really nice as well, the Dauntless especially. As for 1:72 armor, my local hobby shop tempts me every time with Dragon Hummel's and Jagdtigers but so far I've resisted. Don't know how long I can hold out!

For 1:32 armor I have twenty one in all, mostly FOV Enthusiast but a lot of 32x as well. I suppose I prefer FOV but 21st comes out with some great stuff for the price, like the new playsets I just got. I have three 32x aircraft as well. I had a lot of 1:18 but I don't have the space and have sold most of it in favor of smaller scales.

So my collection is small but growing fast!

If we counted figures we'd be running into thousands, wouldn't we?

My 1/32 collection alone is insane. Maybe I'm insane.

4 of each 21 fig set made to day, 3 BIG playsets plus some smaller ones. The least I have of any one paint job is probably 2 and the most of any one type would be 10. Pnzr IIIs -3 original, 2 DARK A.K., 2 gray w/long gun, 1 gray short gun, 1 long gun tan/green, 1 long gun A.K.. Probably about 9 Shermans of various paint jobs. There's more but not enough space to talk about it.

I think we're all insane but that's okay.

18 pieces of 1/18 scale airplanes and armor
184 pieces of 1/32 (and 1/35) scale airplanes and armor
100 aircraft ranging from 1/144 to 1/72
124 pieces of armor or artillery ranging from 1/48 to 1/72
I did not count my smaller scale armor, nor my figures.
I get worried when I add it all up like this.... let's not do this too often....
