Post 'em now sweet /toy/!
>>5589439
No, part of me wants to just sell them or throw them away.
Being addicted to plastic is the worst feeling in the world. I do not even feel anything when obtaining anything new.I don't even play with toys, I'm better off with statue shit.
Yet I still buy and look at pictures of others collection, one day wishing and hoping me being cynical about it will be a phase.
I don't like your collection as I do not like Star Wars, also don't like how they're all spread out on the table. Why no shelves? risers?
>>5589439
Extremely.
>>5589439
Fuck yeah, Star Wars!
No, because it's incomplete!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Seriously, I really can't be proud of my collection because there's always something i want to buy to finish it. Then there's the fact that i really don't think of it as an accomplishment. They're just play things to me.
I feel a sense of accomplishment from finishing a model, but they're always a work in progress, because they can always be better.

I cant really show of my collection currently because its super messy. I'm temporarily in a small space and I'm working on getting better displays
I used to not care at all about collecting toys and thought it was kind of cool at least as a nerdy hobby. But all I can imagine now is in 20 years how lame it will be to be a middle aged woman, likely fat and poorly aged clinging to a bunch of plastic like a hoarder from TLC.
It seems really pathetic and I really hope I can over come this insecurity I've gotten recently because I do truly like the hobby.
Basically how I feel
>wow im young and cute, maybe that redeems me from this plastic hell
>in 20 years I'll be old and nothing, and seem pathetic to everyone around me for continuing this
Although in general lately I've been becoming really anxious of what it will be like when I'm older.
>>5589976
>cute
marry me fem-anon.
>>5589976
>I will never find a girl who shares my hobby
Feels bad man.
My collection has grown over the years, I need to tidy up some so I only showed the best and favorite figures I have.
>>5589976
I kinda feel the same way too, but I usually cope with this by saying to myself, "I'm a goddamn adult and I can do what I want." If plastic toys are what you like to do, then by god do it. You aren't murdering people, you aren't selling crack or any other terrible things. You have a nice hobby that is actually cool to you. Be proud of who you really are.
>>5589956
>If you stop now you might find a girlfriend someday
Lol sure thing homie. Been in a relationship for about 10 years now, and she collects toys too.
I'm currently in process of filling up my new cases after the move...
>>5589582
Same.
I regret the money I wasted away in toys a lot, and even though I have some rare and cool shit like the ToyBiz hulks in the end it's just fucking plastic.
>>5589976
What are you thinking? An old lady that collects toys? You need to think about the future and step up your old lady game by starting a collection of cats.
>>5590271
Why start a collection of cats when you can start a collection of cats... that are also toys!
>>5590249
And the only person that cares is yourself, when people see my place they never compliment me or anything or say "oh that's neat" it's always "Get any new toys to add to your mancave?"
Just an empty feeling of temporary excitement when obtaining something now loses it's meaning minutes later.
>>5590364
>Give me that Big Zam.
There's a loose one on eBay for $115. Which is just a little more than I paid for mine NIB.
>>5590230
This is cool other than the fact that dolls terrify me
>>5590070
There are girls out there who have niches hobbies like this. I know at least four of my friends who like figures and things like that but dont collect since money. I believe in you anon !
>>5590072
Thank you anon, I'll try to just be myself. Currently most of my friends have nothing against my hobbies and some of them like it. I hope I can continue to surround myself with people of similar interests.
>>5590271
I like cats....My future is in despair
>>5590230
>>5589439
I'm fairly proud of my collection. I find I don't really want new things as much as I used to. I've also had my wife's friends compliment me on how clean and neat my man cave is compared to other men they know.
Pic related is an older pic of my collection, but not too much has changed. Only note worthy change is the fact that my wife FINALLY hymned my curtains, so they're only half the length now (and look much better).
>>5590100
What does she collect, out of curiousity?
>>5594195

Good times
>>5594199
/toy/ has a pretty small amount of regular posters as compared to other boards (which is why the board moves slow as shit). Are you really getting butt hurt that someone's posted their collection on multiple threads where people are posting their collections?
>>5595037
I'd hardly say that was butthurt. Yes /toy/ doesn't have a lot of posters and maybe even less who will show their collection but it doesn't really need to be in every single collection thread now.
Unless it's actually gone full circle and someone else is reposting it like they did to the guys room with the R2 collection and custom built detolf corner.
>>5595452
So what are the unspoken rules to when/how you can post your collection on a "show off your collection" thread?
Can he post his collection every other thread? Once a month? Once a year?
Genuinely curious, because if you're really not butt flustered by his posting his collection. You're just being a dick, and I'd like to get how your logic works
>>5595452
It's just a picture, you'll get over it you big needy baby.
>>5595452
>Being this autistic and butt flustered over a picture
At least the guy's collection actually looks good instead of just being a bunch of Transformers crammed single file into a Walmart bookshelf.
>>5595452
>>5594199
Dude, I make it a point to rarely post my collection because people like you get ass blasted about it for some reason. I posted it once about 2 collection threads ago, and before that, it had been 6 or 7 months since I posted it (unless someone was trying to troll people like you with the picture).
If you don't like seeing my collection posted, you could keep scrolling. People getting butt panged about me posting a collection I'm proud of in an image board's thread about people who are proud of their collections need to seriously pull the sticks out their asses. Does seeing a thumbnail of my collection in a thread full of other thumbnails of people's collections really cause you such discomfort?
>>5594199
>this one again
It's a great setup, m8. It should be posted every time. It inspired me to collect and display.
>>5596190
I don't get it either.
Here, I'll post mine yet again, maybe corner-office-detolf-crab-Nicholson-guy will show up too.
Now let's knock it up a notch:

Wow, thanks for the compliment, dude. I really love your collection. Not a Star Wars fan at all, but you make it look good.
Also, the turtles up top look new. I was thinking about maybe investing in the set, but they're so expensive. Are they worth it?
>>5594199
Unlike the Astromech collection that guy actually posts here, I remember a thread about that fire escape thing.
>>5592453
Post close ups of your cabinets so I can decide how jealous I should be. Either way that is a pretty classy setup. Wish I had room for something like that, tiny one bedroom apartment does not lend itself well to nice collections.
>>5596305
>>Temjin10/10
Thanks man, I love him too
>>5596334
The Turtle statueshit is definitely overpriced, but they're pretty much the nicest Turtle merch available. So I guess it depends on how much you love the source material.
I'm convinced >>5594199, >>5595452, and >>5596363 are all the same poster who probably lives in a basement and has a ton of shitty Transformers stuffed on a Walmart shelf who will, of course, never dare post their collection.
The projection in these posts is palpable.
>>5589897
>>5589901
Me here. Thinking about getting five more EFSF color Hi Zacks off of Amazon.
I wish the Titans green color ones were more common.
I took the green one out of the packaging (MSIA are really easy to put back in the package for storage or display and I only didn't open the Gun Cannon because of sentimental value) and it's a lot of fun to play with. All of the great things about the Zaku II version 2 but with new accessories.
>>5596343
>Psycho Gundam
>Motoko
I'm jelly.
I still need to get the Psycho Gundam for my MSIA collection.
ITT: are you proud of your collection? Well you shouldn't be.
Pretty much. I'm almost near the end of collecting other than picking up some upcoming releases and some niche pieces for animation and custom projects.
Pic is pretty much my Detolfs and bookshelf.
>>5589976
The key to happiness is not giving a fuck and doing what you like. Unless you've taken the hobby to a self destructive level who cares. Just take care of yourself.

Buy cat figurines.
Collecting things in your later years isn't all that odd. My parents are almost 60 and have their own collections. My mom collects dragon stuff, and my dad has a collection of knives and old guns. He also has some hot wheels.
I used to have some "collectible" barbies. Mostly stuff my parents gave me as a kid. I ended up giving those to my nieces. Their mom took them and put them in her collection. They weren't really worth anything, she was just being greedy.
I have a collection of Monster High dolls. I've gotten rid of some but kept the ones I liked more to display later. I have a thing for Halloween and softer/cuter horror themed stuff so they fit right in. I'm hoping when we move if I ever get my own sewing room that I can display my collection properly.
Some heroclix goodness

Not all of us live in our mom's basements.
Some of us actually have windows in our houses.
>>5597222
Calm down dude. Some people out there (who care) might learn from his comment about what sunlight can do to figures. No need to get pissy. Also, get drapes or something, but whatever, idgaf about your collection.
>>5597143
Lol what? I aint hiding shit. Why you so edgy?
>>5597240
>get drapes or something
Workin' on it. The sun only hits the room for a few minutes each day, and that's the best time to take pictures. But I want to get some diffuser for the light that enters the room.
This guy -> >>5597222 isn't me btw

I just haven't the time nor the space to open them and arrange them in an orderly and attractive fashion.
When the whole Amiibo thing first launched, I promised myself I wouldn't get into it, and yet here I am with dozens of sealed figurines.

How hard is it to get drapes? You posted this collection multiple times and you still havent covered your windows. Its as if you want someone to break into your shit. Just go to a walmart or target and get some.
>>5603604
>toys in front of video games
Everything else looks great though.
>>5597486
Honestly... those boxes don't look bad. I think it's the rainbow set up and that it's very neat on the shelves like that.
Yes

Man, I remember when my entire toy collection was small enough to fit on a single table. It's ridiculous now, i probably couldn't display them all at once if I tried.
I also remember when big toys felt so special and novel, and like I was getting a lot of bang for my buck. Now they just look like taking up more space.
>>5604090
Why?
Not even trolling, just genuinely curious as to why you feel that way.
>>5603973
I don't really care for MLs, but that Dormammu is neat.

Didn't know if it was because he has awesome figures (not really into what he has on display honestly) or how he actually has it displayed.
I mean, it looks okay, but in the end, they're just a couple of book shelves and detolfs. I just didn't see the big deal, that's all.

Thanks for pointing that out anon. Promptly fixed it. Sorry for the potato phone quality pic though.
Sorry if this comes out really big. A picture of a couple of my shelves.
>>5605336
>Thanks for pointing that out anon. Promptly fixed it.
No problem anon. I've been owning the original Megazord for 23 years, I guess the design is so engraved in my brain that I notice things like that easily.
Great collection and awesome display, btw.
second impact, this should be a bit bigger.
Several years ago my wife told me to get a new hobby. This is the result. She's also got some Kamen Rider W toys and all the Sailor Moon SHF.

But you're the one with no good figures.

dude wat.
>>5589439
>Are you proud of your toy collection?
Yes but i wouldn't use a word PROUD.
I love toys very much and they make me happy.
But it's not a collection in term of a "collection of valuable stamps/ancient coins/cars".
Those are toys that i like. The different ones from 80s action figures to nowadays cartoon stuff.
My collection is very chaotic and contains all kinds of crazy characters and robots (not anime ones) that mean something to me.
>>5589582
>No, part of me wants to just sell them or throw them away.
>Being addicted to plastic is the worst feeling in the world. I do not even feel anything when obtaining anything new.I don't even play with toys, I'm better off with statue shit.
I've seen this kind of faggots over these years.
They all end up with a thought like this - ending up with a bunch of shitty Alien/Predator/Terminator/Pop/Anime Girls stuff and want to throw them away because all that shit makes them sick.
All because they collected it in a hype, wanted to get "all versions of this Predator" or some shit.
My collection contains some very important toys so i will never get tired of it.
>>5607739
I know that feel of having ones you actually like no matter what
I also get that feel that maybe buying that $200 of lego was a mistake but usually justify it since I could always donate/sell/give to possible children
Don't know how people can stand having entire collections of static pieces when buying something I think it should either be a modular thing or truly important
>>5605427
>Great collection and awesome display, btw.
Thanks man. I really need to do an updated pic. I just reupholstered my couch, and got a new X Rocker gaming chair to replay that shitty fold out one I had next to the couch.
>>5605913
I like this collection a lot. But the walls are a weird color and are kind of distracting. Really digging how you avoided a clusterfuck though. Makes me wish I could fit an extra Detolf or two in my room...
>no comment on my collection
i'm taking that to mean i didn't offend anyone which is a victory in my book.
>>5608322
If it's the MGS stuff, it's very boring.
>>5608322
Which collection is yours?
>>5608291
I've tried to keep less than 6 of the small figures and two of the much bigger toys per shelf. I even did the crappy extra shelf mods for some of my Macross valks.
>>5589439

Yup. Got it at amiami before it sold out
For any of the long time collectors, what do you recommend for good stands?
I just recently nabbed a Play Arts Kai of Bogey from Vanquish for 20 bucks, and it was before they included stands in the packages. The detail and paint is great but he's rather wobbly so I can only keep him in one good pose.
