Now that is a great piece , you are very lucky to get one and worth every penny . Nice to still see you hard at it buddy , was wondering what happened but so glade you are doing great . Not really collecting anymore and last time i did a vid on my other channel has been 6 years i think , but i rarely go there . Be well my friend ..
So good to hear from you brother. It’s heartwarming, you may have stopped collecting but you always come back from time to time to leave a comment or see how things are doing, and I really appreciate it. Some of the guys from the old days are long gone and I haven’t heard of them in years. Still, you should make a little video one of these days, just to say hi to everyone and show us your collection, even if it’s mostly older collectibles, just so we can see what you’ve kept, and what your collection looks like nowadays. Thanks for watching, brother ! Please stay in touch! Miss ya, man!
Great video as always brother. A piece not for everyone, treated with in the best possible way with ur review. The details, the deep comprehensive look, the lore... A well deserved "For Neal" tribute touch.
Hey brother so happy to hear from you again. It’s funny, I really wasn’t expecting this video to bring me lots of views, because, as you said, this piece isn’t for everyone. But it seems whenever I make an “unsuccessful” video, that’s where all the guys from the old days that i haven’t heard from in ages, all of a sudden come back to say Hi hahaha. Thanks for the comment brother. I’d been waiting for this piece for so long, some folks received theirs almost a year ago already. Incredible. But it’s finally here and it’ll have its special place, apart from all the “movie stuff”. Neil has a special place in my heart, he deserves a special place in the house too. Thanks for watching brother, always a true pleasure to read a few words from you.
@@jayjay-bz3rr Nope, they haven’t made it. This is a huge statue that was over 1000 bucks, so it had to be Neil’s first step on the moon. People probably wouldn’t spend that much for a Collins statue. However there is a company called DID Corp. who made all three 1:6 scale figures of Armstrong, Aldrin and Collins, that you can display with or without their helmets, which means they actually sculpted their faces and I have to say the likeness is pretty damn good. I don’t own these, but you’ll find plenty of videos on RUclips. Check it out ! And thanks for watching !
Yeah, it’s pretty much perfect. I’ll mod a few things on it. Antenna, flag carrier, base repaint… But out of the box, it really looks stellar as is. Thanks for watching, man! I appreciate it 🤜🏼 💥 🤛🏼
Curious how will you maintain cleanliness from dust? Is there a special vacuum for sculptures that you'll use or is a custom acrylic enclosure a better way for preservation?
Hey there. Sorry for the late reply. To be honest for the moment I still have it in its box. But yes, I’ll eventually display it under a custom made glass cabinet. It’s not so much dust that worries me with this statue, but more the accidental stain from whatever comes too close to it.
Is it brand new? mine they told me that It is an open box by custom for safety inspection and it is a little cheaper and in good condition they said...What do you think? Should I take the shot? Please someone help.. thanks!
@eivoMSeb Thanks for the reply! No, unfortunately I haven't bought it yet.. but I will keep in mind the store you mentioned! Although surely I can't visit it. I live in Greece 😊 Thanks a lot!!!
I bought it from a website called « La Cité des Nuages ». It’s a store in Belgium. You can buy online from them, but they also have a store where you can go and pick things up. You won’t regret it if you can get it. It’s truly a phenomenal piece ! Thanks for watching 🤜🏼 💥 🤛🏼
Best space model for the general market I have ever seen
For over a thousand euros a piece, I wouldn’t call this the general market anymore. But you are right about that : it’s absolutely stunning.

@@eivoMSeb. Is there a Command Module seat with Collins in it also?
