Thought id start a little thread on the often laborious task of completing a child hood toy or something in your collection, this could be a figure or a vehicle as well as packaging/boxes. A lot of us do collect with a budget, or enjoy (like myself) hunting for parts to rebuild the unloved or something that has a lot of potential to display very well but is in otherwise a sorry state.

Maybe post up some progress of current projects or things you have managed to complete and added to your collection, hopefully it would inspire others to share their work and collections and encourage everyone in the long run.

This is a fairly recent acquisition, obviously a childhood toy and looked after to some extent but damaged and worn with time. The battle damage stickers had turned the originals underneath into a horrid sticky mess and are almost completely pealed off and the box is battered.

Whats the plan? Fix it, preserve it and enjoy it for what it is.
