Well... it's been a long time since I've done an official limelight. So long that I thought I would just start a new thread, since it's basically a completely new set up.
As some of you know I had a small fiasco with the collection room earlier this year. So most of this stuff has been in storage patiently waiting until I could finally get things sorted out. So finally with less than a week to go in the year, I got the RC's up and displayed again. It's been a long road and I'm still no where near done, but this feels so good that I just had to share with you all. BTW, what do you think of the paint color?
First up is the overall shot of the RC display. Left side is the Kenner case, middle is pre-production and the right is the foreign side of things.
Here is the top shelf of the Kenner side:
From Right to Left: 65A, 65B, 65B w/coin offer sticker
Second shelf:
From Right to Left: 65C, 65C w/coin offer sticker, 77A w/coin offer sticker, 77A
Third shelf:
From Right to Left: 79B, three Polish Unarticulated bootlegs, ROTJ multi-pack, 79B w/coin offer sticker
Fourth shelf is where my budding Endor Forest Ranger focus lives:
From Right to Left: MIB Tri-Logo, Loose Kenner, Loose No COO, MIB Canadian. The loose RC's are all the various COO's.
Next up is the Foreign side of the display.
Top shelf:
From Left to Right: TolToys, Canadian 65, Meccano, Tri-Logo miscard with Hoth Rebel Soldier, Tri-Logo w/etched bubble
Second shelf. I call this the import shelf:
From Left to Right: Kenner 77A w/White Clipper Sticker, Palitoy 65B Double Stem Bubble w/Black Clipper Sticker, Palitoy 65C w/Italian Import Sticker, Palitoy 65C w/Black Clipper Sticker, Kenner 65A w/Japanese Tsukuda Sticker
Third shelf is all Palitoy's:
From Left to Right: Palitoy 65A, Palitoy 65B w/Double Stem Bubble, Palitoy 65CC Made in China w/RC exclusive HG on the back of the card. This also has a Palitoy Bubble, 65C Made in Hong Kong w/Tri-Logo Bubble
And now on the to the pre-production case.
Top shelf:
From Left to Right: Kenner 65A proof, Bubble Test. The bagged figures in the front are Internal Kenner Store Rebel Commander w/Rebel Commando Sticker, Rebel Commando Baggie, Internal Kenner Store Rebel Commando w/Rebel Commander Sticker
Second shelf:
From Left to Right: Dynacast Hardcopy Head, Hand Painted Protomold Rebel Commando, Unused production arms and leg
Third shelf:
From Left to Right: Unproduced POTF Cromalin, Unproduced POTF Proof Card, Photo Transparency of the shot used for the cardback
Next is the modern pre-production side of the focus. I know, I know, it's modern, but I really feel this helps break things up a bit. Plus it's always fun to get pre-production items. Whether that's vintage or modern.
From Left to Right: Saga Endor Rebel Soldier mock up on Captain Typho card, Unused Endor Forest Ranger Tri-Logo cardback w/hanger tag still attached, Endor Forest Ranger first shot without peg holes or dates molded in non-production colors
From Left to Right: POTF2 Freeze Frame Canadian Signed Sample, POTF2 Freeze Frame Kenner QC Sample, POTF2 Freeze Frame Japanese Signed Sample, Two Attacktix first shots one in production colors with tracking stamps and the other in non-production colors.
Lastly is a couple of pieces that are absolutely irreplaceable. These are some custom art pieces that I've had done by some very dear friends.
On top is a gift from Joe_O this is an original piece of art from Jeff (jpc_art) on RS. On the bottom is the original pencil sketch done by our very own Hyver.
On top is a custom airbrushed painting done by Josh_T. On the bottom is the plaque I won for the tattoo competition at C5, signed by the tattoo artist.
I hope you all enjoyed my little limelight. I have more stuff to come as soon as the room gets more complete.

I also like how each shelf is divided to certain areas of the focus. I can't wait to see future updates. 
...and two front guns from the endor forest ranger...LOL)
