Me too, i had many others in that light-catching style but gawd only nose what became of them over the years. They're a real bugger to photograph though, as demonstrated by that Rose Tattoo badge in my pic. And that was the best pic out of about 10.

Not Metal-related but I used to collect these reflective prism footy stickers as a kid:

Aussie rules?
I know nothing about the sport but i can still see the attraction, they're pretty cool.
That Balmain Tigers logo reminds me of the cover of the 1st Tygers Of Pan Tang album.

Rugby League.... they made Aussie Rules ones as well but I only had a couple because they were near impossible to find in Sydney which is Rugby League territory...

Ah, i see, coz you'd said 'footy' i jumped to the wrong conclusion.
Rugby's not really that big of a thing here in Scotland though it does have it's strongholds. It seems like Union is more popular here than League, though i'm really not that clued up about it.

I don’t know if it’s customary to start a new thread or if it’s ok to just resurrect this one, but I took a few pics recently for some Facebook friends and felt they belonged here. Very pornographic stuff

The sleeveless 7”s are
Top row
Razor - Saloonatic
Aura test press (and regular version in pic sleeve)

Middle row
Big Hozz and the Animals - Lucifer’s Friend / Edge of Life test press for unreleased 7”
Tyranny - Rockit / She Ain’t Comin Back

Bottom row
Jackwave - Rising Star / Release Me test press for unreleased 7”
X-It - Stay Away / Morning Light

Photoshop???

GOOD SIR! I am appalled by these allegations

I present you these two more pics as evidence. If my cats genuinely shocked reaction to these monsters isn’t enough to convince you then I don’t know what will

Perfect expression & shutter-clicking timing! Bravo!
It should be law that any future record reveal pics posted to the forum must include a feline facial reaction as 'proof'.
To paraphrase a once omipresent interweb saying; 'cats or it didn't happen'!

Hahahaha yes I second this motion. Cat pics or it didn’t happen!

Cats would also attract much more people to this forum!

Probably the best collection i've seen in years...oh and the most metallic cat out there!
I bet that your next addition is the Token Debt 7''...

That cat is plotting destruction and mischief.

"You just walk into the other room. Nothing will happen to these records while you are gone".

Now THAT is some Proper HM-Collector Pron!!

To be 100% honest, I think this is a new world record in Most Obscure Top-Rarities Compiled In A Handful Of Pics, on this forum or elsewhere. That's some impressive work tracking all of those down... I can't help being especially impressed by how you nailed some of those Swedish ones. That's the first copy of the 2nd Jackwave 7" I've even heard about in the hand of a collector, outside the band themselves. Also the 2nd copy of Big Hozz I've ever seen (...though the other copy did have the picture sleeve )

Will get back to you w/ some Q's about some of those pearls via pm soon...

Thank you so much!!! I did see that Token Debt , definitely considered it, but ultimately decided against it. Sound clip was pretty good, but having never seen or heard it until that listing came up, I decided I’d rather wait and try to find it for cheaper. Believe it or not, this stuff in these pictures is mostly all from either trades or some serious heavy metal archeology so to speak. Digging this stuff up from unconventional places. I can’t afford the collector prices that these would fetch. There are a few that I sold some spares to afford certainly, but most of these were purchased at a fraction of the “market value” . That being said I’d kinda forgotten about the Token Debt until now, will have to do a little digging tonight
