That time I bought a HUGE Morphogenesis lot!

A couple of years ago I ordered a really big lot of Gormiti Morphogenesis parts. Just a shoebox full of body parts without any guarantees. Even though I closely inspected the photos in the listing (ebay), I wasn't exactly sure how many complete figures it would all add up to - but the price was fair so I went ahead and ordered it. 

It turned out I could assemble close to a complete Morphogenesis series plus numerous duplicates so this lot is definetely one of my all time favorites.

I didn't have a Gormiti blog at the time but luckily I took plenty of photos in the different stages of completion - and now it's time to share them.  

Here (below) is the whole multi-colored mess just tipped out of the shoebox. Notice the big stack of cards also included. 

On the tablet in the background you can see a glimpse of the legendary Danish Gormiti-site Gormitier.dk (sadly, It closed down earlier this year after not being updated for ages). This site was a great help for me when I first got into Gormiti collecting - and in this case it worked as a great manual for assembly. I must remember to write a post about this site some day.

Then I started sorting. Here we have the heads. I remember thinking this looked like a really strange hunter's trophy wall! 

Torsos! Neatly sorted. 

And here everything is sorted. It took a while but I had a great time doing it.

Here's just a close-up of that legendary website. There were hi-res pictures of EACH Gormiti from the First series up until Morphogenesis! There was never any contact information on this site but somebody had done a huge amount of work uploading all of this, that's for sure. 


And finally ... completed! A few characters and a couple of wings missing but overall it's pretty impressive.


Some time later I will also do a series review of Morphogenesis - just had to share these great pictures!
