Sideshow Featured Collector: Yoan Gonzalez

Collector: Yoan Gonzalez

Location: Miami, FL

How and when did you start collecting?

I started collecting, I don’t remember exactly, at least 8 years ago. My first statue was the exclusive edition Kratos God of War statue from Sideshow. I was instantly hooked. I still own him to this date.

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

I collect mostly Marvel and DC But I been getting other stuff from movies as well.

What makes your collection unique?

In my opinion, it’s the custom display.  Most people just buy statues and set them up anywhere but that doesn’t make the pieces come to life. If you give it the correct amount of lighting  and its own spot it makes every piece stand out and look amazing.

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

The 1/1 Scale busts from the Spider-Man Line. I have had many offers through the years and I have always kept them. They are my most wanted pieces.

What items are on your wishlist?

The New Deadpool bust, Waiting anxiously on the new Venom statue and looking forward to that Bane piece.
