I love Lego's so I totally understand that collection! This subject is one of the reasons I actually got passionate about understanding everything about Nikon DSLRs. My 600K+ Comic Book collection was needing to be cataloged and I either go all in 100% or don't start projects like that because of the engineer in me. Needless to say Copy table w/3100K static lights, 50mm f/1.8 D, and D3400 was my first setup. I ended up getting a Kodak color strip to help get colors tack on to produce photos that ended up looking as good as the big auction houses get and destroy the best eBay photos I've seen IMHO.
Here are some quick examples of my collectibles... I've taken 10s of thousands of comic book images so here's the first couple I found and hope you like them as well as the original (alien) artwork from the 1940s...
Thanks,

Just actually uploaded the original artwork from 1948 that's just stellar IMHO...
Thanks to technical aspects of getting spot on copy table photographs right in the camera I went from having to fix WB, exposure, or other issues common with lazy photographers. Now I know how to adjust the camera to get photos that I'm proud of which makes it so much more fun. I know that it is way better to be in control rather than in the caboose hunched over a PC struggling to fixing things.
Little bit of a learning curve but soooo worth it!

I'll have to agree with Photogirl17 here. It is before I was born, but I see a technique here I used in school. My times has changed. Nice work.
