question on tubes

Postby **mindblowin02** » Sat Jun 14, 2008 4:39 pm

i want to display my wunderland war monkey assassins Blood Splattered box set, but i don't want dust to get on them, so where can i get a couple of tubes like what the regular editions come in?

thanks for your help.

You'll probably need to get the originals to get the tube for them, but you might contact Vinnie thru the WW site??

Or you can go to a store and buy a clear plastic window and cut it to fit the Tin.

Brad might be able to supply you with a few cheap spastiks if he has any on specials.

Maybe just photocopy the back of one of the originals?

fingers crossed.

They are nice! How much did they set you back?

Reminds me of this:

Postby **mindblowin02** » Sat Aug 09, 2008 2:27 pm

i got 4 of them shipped for $32 or so. so about $6 each plus shipping.

not bad, i'm very happy.

The protos look very nice in the tubes I must admit! =D>

Those tubes look pretty good.

I also dig that Mignola Batman. I have that one right next to my Hellboy Nodder from Hourglass.

yeah, my hellboy knocker is on the top shelf.

I was actually the first person to get the hellboy knocker, my wife begged them 2-3 months before they came out so that she could give it to me as a wedding gift.

the maker shops at my comic store.

Rock on!

I picked mine up on e-bay. I was one of the last to get one.

Hellboy, boba fett, mechabot, madl's, and jamungo are kind of where i concentrate my collection now.

I'm a big mignola fan, I have to start saving for an original piece of art one of these days.

Hellboy's down in the corner, next to Batman, at the devil's feet.

Good luck. People bid sketches up to astronomical (stupid) prices. My wife would kill me if I tried to buy an original page.

thanks for the pic :eek:

there is a big difference, I think I like the neca one better 8-[

but thats just me ;-)

Postby **mindblowin02** » Thu Aug 14, 2008 3:30 am

the neca is a production piece based off of the movie made of plastic.

the hourglass bobble head is the high end piece made of porcelain..

Postby **Squird** » Thu Aug 14, 2008 9:11 am

And I'm a much bigger fan of the the Hourglass piece.

As much as I like the job NECA does with their headknockers, this piece blows them away, IMO. It is based on the comic Hellboy and is damn good looking.

If you search the net you'll probably find a better image.

actually the neca one is made of resin :violent1:

being high end is not my cup of tea. so neca suits me just fine ;-)

thank you for breaking the description down for me though

I love the hourglass one, I wish they had made an abe version.
