Another GNR Collection To Look At - WARNING LOTS OF LARGE PICS

[williambailey]

There is a TV show here in Oz called The Collectors - it basically features the different things that people collect.  Well I contacted them a while back on email to see if they might be interested in doing a section on my GNR collection.  They got back to me saying they wanted to find out more about it including photos etc.  Since I have still been a slack ass and not built my website to house it yet, I finally got around to taking some group photos of things.  It's not everything (lots of double ups or things that look the same but were pressed in different countires, I didn't bother photographing), plus the shit is littered all over the house so I forget stuff is there too.  But anyhow thought I would share some pics:

Edit - Hmm for some reason it seems to have cut off the right hand side of the pics when I posted them - it must not like them that big??

I'm speechless. The greatest collection I've ever seen. 

[Nikolis-Godfather]

OMG... what a museum!

[Halo69]

Now my collection looks like shit 

What a great fucking collection! I love the illusion items and the Live Like a suicide cd with the text written by Axl. Also loved the gold signed cds! Im so Jealous!!!!

Im just starting now, and i dont have much, if you have anything to sell, please pm me

[williambailey]

Cheers guys.

Yeah between a number of the big collectors that post on these sites there is probably a really good GNR museum if you put all the stuff together.

There is hepas more stuff that I want to collect, but obviously it's just deciding where best to spend the $$'s.  Some common stuff I have taken years to purchase simply only picking it up when the price was right.

Halo they are sealed LLAS vinyls not CD's.  The first one has a personal message from Alan Niven (he got rid of a number of sealed LLAS's a few years ago) and he wrote a personal message on it which was cool.   The second one though I personally got Axl to sign which was awesome.   Your collection is starting off fine, you already have a couple of items in there that I don't have   Plus it took me quite a few years before the UYI wooden box set came into my collection - yet you already have it

I also posted the pics here - they don't seem to have been "cut off" on the right side so you can see them properly - although they are a bit smaller:

I was only gonna buy the wood box but this collection thing started to hit me lol
Im gonna buy the use your illusion boxes as they were released back in 1991 and im looking to pick up another AFD special edition or box and some bootlegs here and there, and also a live era special edition and then ill stop.
The wood box i saw it some years ago selling for 300 dollars on ebay, but i couldn't afford it. A couple of years later i finally got it thanks to Pandora's great prices and willingness to sell it.

You're collection is fucking awesome though, i think even Axl will be very impressed and try to buy some of this stuff lol 

[BumbleBuzz]

I have to congratulate you on your collection

could you tell me though, where did you get that axl rose figure?! I would love one!

[w.axl.rose]

So fucker... Ever gonna open it? 

[CheapJon]

eh, I've seen bigger collections


















in gene simmons own home, holy mother of fuck how often do you listen to music while playing with the axl n' slash figures?

[izzyjim]

First I was like "Live Era" on cassette? shit, why would they do it?
Then I got deeper and deeper and... well, will you marry me? 

Fucking awesome dude, it's priceless (yeah, I know you spent shitload of money on it, not to mention time looking for stuff) and truly fucking amazing - but you're already know that, right?

So where do you live?...

That Axl was a home made job somebody did out of a WWF wrestling figure, I bought it off ebay quite a few years ago.

So where do you live?... 

I live in Australia.

Must be an ECW Steven Richards from his BWO days....good to know

I believe it is a combination of two wrestling figures.  The shirt around his waist comes from this guy (see the pic in the link):

Not sure where the body comes from because it doesn't seem to match him, so it must be another figure.  There is also the Rock in Rio/MTVMA looking one too that also came up for sale on ebay around the same time.

Hmm I noticed one of the pics of a heap of vinyl was broken - fixed that now.
