I just picked up a FT-2 and with it I've got all of them.  
Well, I got to admit I still don't have the AC-3 but no one does so I don't really count it. It's on order though so as soon as it arrives in the country I'll get one.
I don't have all the variants so there's still a few left to pick up but I'm not going to stress it. I'll have to start planning a major photo session now  |

Yeah, congratulations!
I suppose you have a lot to collect in the future, variations ,different chips, the pink BF-2 etc.
How many pedals did you have when you started this forum? I�ll guess that the forum made you spend more money on pedals than you where supposed to�

I think I had around 60 when the forum opened (close to a year ago). I guess the buying has accellerated a bit over the last year. In addition to the remaining 25 pedals I've also picked up 13 of the 14 minirack modules (I don't have a RDD-20 yet) and a few random units here and there (SE-50, HC-2, BCB-60, AB-2).
My new year resolution (in April?) is to spend less time browsing Ebay.  |

| Sweet . . . ! Does this mean that you can give us some in depth reviews of the differences between all of the pedals? Maybe even sound clips of all of them? 'Cause that would be fantastic! |

| Congratulations indeed. I think it's always sad though when you finish a collection, I remember when I was little and wanted all of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle action figures (all of them not just the 4 turtles) and once I got all of them I remember feeling sad, and empty. Nevermind that though, Congrats! |

That group photo will make a nice pic for the home page.
Do you have the old stuff, like the FA-1 & the Bee Baa?
Will you get to be in the next edition of "The Boss Book"?
Getting them all photographed & recorded will probably be more time consuming than aquiring them. That should keep you off the streets for a while.
Grace and peace,
Steve
P.S., I would suggest that you NOT taking up collecting Way Huge pedals now.

Yep the collecting is almost like a mission, you are on to something and once the mission is finished it seems that there is nothing to go for anymore. It is all in the moment, each and every time has its own treasures, but I agree that it is not always easy to feel and think like this.
Congrats Bossarea, enjoy your relaxing time away from Ebay, it really does wonders to your spirits and even makes you wonder why the hell you started this madness in the first place................

Thanks guys. It's been a long way towards this goal but I don't feel down because it's over now. Instead I feel relieved that I don't have refresh the Ebay pages 50 times a day (20 is enough ). I have more time to update the web pages, play guitar, pick my nose and scratch my ass . I think I've mentioned earlier that I think collecting is a disease. Maybe I'm cured now? At least I have no plans on collecting anything else. Even my Ferrari collection will remain at 0 for the time being
I don't have any of the older pedals. I've been offered a couple of good deals on some of them but I knew that if I started collecting them I wouldn't be able to stop. That feels good. I could spend years searching for some of those rarities.

The last piece of the puzzle
