Ladies and gentlemen: we got him!
« on: December 04, 2011, 11:17:39 »
Every collector will recognize it. Their quest for the holy grail. That one set that you want so badly, but cannot get hold of. Or..at least not for a reasonable price. For me its no different.

This set always eluded me.... often it was because it was for sale at ludicrous prices, a few times I just lost a bidding war, but this time, it was my turn to celebrate!

Its not 100% complete, you can see the damage easily. But look at it...for the rest its in an unbelievably good state!

Have a look for yourself, I'm really proud of this jewel in my playmo crown!

Congratulations.  The title led me to believe this was going to be a diorama of a completely different topic though.
