Sideshow Featured Collector: Diego M. Barrenechea

By Chris Spearman on Mar 30, 2017

Collector: Diego M. Barrenechea

Location: Spain

How and when did you start collecting?

My addiction started with the McFarlane Twisted OZ when I was a teenager. After that I had a dream with the “X-men vs Sentinel 1″ (literally) and I decided to get totally into polystone.

What do you collect? Does your collection have a theme, such as Star Wars, Batman, etc.?

I collect ALL I like. I usually go for 1/4 and bigger scales of very different themes such as comic, films, games, art toys, etc.

What makes your collection unique?

My collection is alive, I mean its always changing. I rarely keep one piece…once I complete a series (Avengers, Lord of the Rings, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, etc.) I broke the display and begin again with other themes. I know it is the opposite of a collector role, but hey thats the way I rock and man, its funny!!!

What are your favorite or the most prized pieces in your collection?

I can tell you the pieces I bought more than once:

And a piece I’ll never sell is the Lobo Premium Format™ Figure by Mr. Canale (Thanks friend for making my dream come true).

What items are on your wish-list?

Millenium Falcon (Master Replicas)
