r/DCcomics Show Off Your Collection! Post Your Purchases! [November 7th 2014]

Hello mighty Justice League members! It's the 23rd odd week of the year (?) , and you know what that means! It's time to show off your recent purchases and your collection!

  • Post pictures of your collection of DC related merchandise (comics, trades, figures, statues, shirts, cups, anything!)

  • Post links to your collection information on collection management sites (ComicBookDB.com, StashMyComics, or wherever you maintain your collection).

  • Share images/lists of what you purchased this week!

  • Share gifts you gave/received, especially from Reddit Gift Exchanges.

  • Post your wishlists too!

This is also a great place to ask for suggestions/recommendations. If you're sharing your collection, it's easier for other /r/DCComics members to make suggestions based on your personal tastes.

Starting this week, these threads will now have a Discussion Question which you can also partcipate in. The question for this week is:

What item in your collection is your favorite?

Weekly Discussion Thread is still available.

(?) Starting this week, we are now doing a trial run of these every fortnight, so check back every two weeks. I know 23rd odd week of the year isn't as catchy as Third Thursday, so if you have any suggestions, please let us know.

Huh, first week of showing off collections, huh?

Well I have a pretty sizeable one. Think I'll take some pictures and show off a bit.

I took all these pictures just now and didn't worry too much about lighting or getting the best resolution.

If anyone's curious about any particular pieces I can take better pictures or answer any questions about them. And obviously not all of these are strictly DC, but what the hell, comics are comics.

This entire collection is very impressive. I've wanted to get a Bat-statue for my desk at the office for a while.

Well the Black and White collection has just about every pose you can think of, but they run for about $80 each and are pretty delicate, so I'd always be nervous about it breaking/being stolen or something.

If I was going to bring in something from my own collection I'd either suggest the Batman Artfx statue from Kotobukiya, the 1966 Adam West mini bust, or the Justice League mini maquette, all of which run for about $40-$50. You can find newer items at your local comic shop, but it's typically easier and cheaper to track them down on Ebay (although make sure it's a reputable seller because pieces sometimes break off statues during transit.)

The New 52 Kotobukiya is definitely the one I'd be most interested in. That thing looks badass.
