It says total collection but it's just my total MSIA collection (minus the few G and Wing stuff I have from my childhood that I don't actively collect).
This doesn't include my 1/6 which is partially displayed on two longer shelves and a large book case on the opposite wall
I don't like that my collection is slowly becoming a blob of toys on some cabinet.
Pic's a tad outdated but who cares
I know I got some organization issues goin' on here and should probably invest in some risers.
So other than that, rate me or something
Inb4 R2 collection and collection with that sword and shield from Legend of Zelda and butthurt
>>5611289
Most of this is terrible, but I like those Mega Man kits from koto and Lobster Johnson. Greedo and Bossk are cool, too.
Might as well ask here. Black or white? I'm planning to get pic related for my TV and small collection of stuff.
>>5611452
black looks better but you'll see dust more. White is nice but can look odd if the room doesn't match

As a Gundamfag I admire & appreciate what you have when I see it, but you really need to take better pics.
>>5611289
You need to make better use of space, arrange things differently, & try some unique poses for goodness sake.
Also, given the bottom isn't well lit, you might want to consider putting your lighter colored figures down there as they'll still pop in the darkness, whereas the others get lost.
>>5611454
Pretty much this. Black collects dust soooooooo easily, it's retarded. Unless it clashes with your stuff, go white. Or cream/tan, should the option be available.
>>5611289
please get some of these.
>>5611603
>but you really need to take better pics.
Unfortunately all I have is my cellphone.

>>5611376
What's terrible? I've posted my collection a few times here and I'bve never heard someone call it "terrible" before.
>>5611603
>You need to make better use of space, arrange things differently,
Yeah I rearrange it quite often but I can never find anything that works well. If I had a third display case maybe, but I just do not have room for that.
>try some unique poses for goodness sake.
I try my best, but whenever I try any interesting or dynamic poses they end up falling the fuck over.
>>5611675
I said right there in my post that I know I need some.
Ignore bottom shelves, haven't figured out how to organize them yet.
>>5611675
Not him, but what is the best 3 level risers that fit detolf shelf?
Here are the shelves of my detlof. Yes it's cluttered, yes I need risers, but I love it.
>>5611745
A darn shame, really. But hey, even with the phone, can't you just make the room brighter? It'd help. Brighter bulbs, a flood light, etc.
>>5611779
Maybe you should use symmetry as a theme; pairs of two, triangle formations, just a sense of balance. Could spark things up a bit. As for poses, you need some stands, even if only the metal wire variety. Alternately you can have some of them in seated positions or relying on one another's weight. Your poses don't have to action oriented though, they can be plain old fun or silly.
>>5612131
Dusting must be hell.
>>5612131
All those solid as fuck poses.
Also what is that blue figure at the top right?
>>5612142
Not him, but I hear smalljoes works well:

I just go to my local Container Store for acrylic risers.
>>5612188
Thanks man, that's String Diver Sam from 3A
What's the consensus on displaying figures on card, I don't see that often. I was thinking of trying to find some sort of acrylic stands like old ladies might use to display plates. Currently what I have (mostly duplicates of opened figures) are just propped against the back of my cabinet.

Blast away, I like it.
>>5614754
I don't collect any of that, but it looks good
>>5614754
Looks good, and I dislike Transformers.
You got dynamic poses (well, as good as TFs can pull off) and nice layering with the help of your risers. Looks great.
You're still a transfag.

>>5614794

Nice projecting, virgin. :)
So I moved about a month ago. I'm finally setting up the spare room. I'm doing the Marvel case first since it's the easiest.
These are my first two shelves. Trying to not clusterfuck it too badly.
>>5616176
>>5615993
I'll agree with you on the mostly bland poses. Some people suck at posing, or just like the "stoic, museum pose"
Not a fan.
All my 1/6th is in storage, but I DO have a First avenger Cap, and a 3A hitler, Just so I can get around to having a Cap punching Hitler pose on my shelf, positioned infront of a reprint of that comic cover.
>>5611289
Nice Cover Up vinyl. I just got the cassette, I see you splurged for the Walkman too huh? That cover of Total Eclipse of the Heart is mind blowing.

It's already a clusterfuck, so you've failed in two aspects without even realizing it.
>>5616898
Post yours.
>>5616176
>>5616181
You subconsciously turned almost all of your figures so that they're facing the same way and in the same level of body rotation. It looks like they're doing a choreographed dance, but one or two of them are out of step.
>>5616649
>>5616701
This is nice enough but Sting is and always will be shit. I think only people from the midwest and the south cared about WCW. But you did a good job tastefully mixing statues and figures, though I think there's too much on display.
>>5616907
I already did, everyone loved it and upvoted/liked/retweeted it and your dad came over to give me a handjob to celebrate.
>>5616909
Haha, I'll take it. I got a good chuckle from that.
>>5616909
Yeah I honestly have too much shit for my townhouse. Like I said most isn't even out, I'll cut down on the displays then they gradually grow back and also I try to keep my living area more "adult" so it's mostly boring shit, no toys. WCW was the most popular show on the planet for like 3 years straight, Sting was awesome, perfect anti hero the one wrestling needed but didn't deserve. The year long build up to Starrcade 97 is unmatched imo.
>>5616898
Kek, so what would you recommend then? Displaying less stuff?
>>5616953
There's only three reasons people need risers: elevated action scenes beyond the height limits of Stage Act stands, displaying small/SD figures, and making their clusterfucks even more clusterfucked while pretending that it's having the opposite effect
>>5617090
So I guess I should have less shit displayed or get more display units to space it all out?
>>5610876
Thats how we do it in the 504 baybee! WHO DAT
>>5617090
Literally only things on risers in that pic are small sd figures.
>>5617286
>figma and SHF are small sd figures
>>5616916
Wow, shame really does not exist when you can shitpost on /toy/
>>5616701
Nope. The tape player has a whole different story.
The short version is I bought that tape at MAGfest the hour the album was released and used that player to listen to it. Later a friend of mine who was doing a Star-Lord cosplay (and the reason I brought the player to the con) went to go buy the album. Either Murphy or the Commander (don't remember) liked the tape player so much he told my friend about how the album fits within the protoverse, something nobody knew at the time.
I know a dude who has an incredible collection, he buys almost everything TF, GI Joe, He-man, and Star Wars... the kicker is that he is a MISB collector: he opens like, none of it. Maybe 2% of the stuff, that can be resealed, he will open, but most of it remains entombed forever.
Note that these figures are stacked like 3-5 deep on the pegs.
>>5617377
Dude Rubber Ducky is my favorite transformer
>>5617399
And this is really just a fraction of his collection. There's much more on the floor, and the other wall, and big stuff in the closet, that I couldn't fit in the shot, or even get to in order to snap a photo. There's even more in the rest of the house, too!
It's amazing, if a little sad to someone like me who can't afford a fraction of this much stuff but opens EVERYTHING.
>>5617399
seems to be more a fan of brick and mortar toy stores than the toys themselves
>>5617373
That's fucking awesome. You from Baltimore? My gf lives there, hopefully I'll make magfest next year. Protomen tour here a lot too, no good reason I haven't seen them live after all these years. At least I saw Totally Radd in LA.

>Thank you senpai
>>5618324
The second, black figure looks to be Hot toys Man of Steel General Zod. Starts around $170 on eBay; Mandarake may have it cheaper.
The Batman is a DKR version, but the only 1/6 DKR I know of is MEdicom's, and its the black cowl version. That may be a custom.
I cannot help with the poster.
I'm rearranging this soon, i just dont know where to start honestly
>>5618324
im a guess the poster is of Marylin Manson, or perhaps the vocalist of darkstars, idk the spelling looks similar to manson though
Work in progress...lots more to do.
>>5619540
The layout looks really nice. You thought of buying buckets to put them all on? Would make them look more uniform.
>>5619561
What I was thinking original but I'm scared of prolonged tension on the straps would eventurally break them. My DX Kaixa Driver broke awhile back because of heat. I'm opting in using clear stands so I can at least put two belts in each compartment and have them leveled. You can see that I've sorta started that with the CS and DX Orga Drivers on the right.

The only thing that's interesting about it is the display, without it it's basically every hot toys collection ever.
>>5619934
no.. 4chan's format is that of a Vietnamese gook squadron image board, other than that it has it's separate boards for weeb shit. and those who enjoy to collect quality figure from quality films shouldnt be cast out because they're like by the vast majority.
>>5619963
No one cares if you like collector's 1/6s from blockbuster films, but if that's all you collect don't expect people to think it's an amazing collection.
>>5619963
>quality figure from quality films
Half of those figures are from shit films, some of them weren't even popular.
>>5619963
4chan was developed as a weeb utopia, all the add-on boards are incidental to its popularity expansion. You can't just give a "no..." and revise history and pretend what you're saying has merit. It doesn't. You're just an immigrant from an expansion board that thinks they can impress some foreign values into this board, which not surprisingly was propped up by tokushit and other weebness in its formative years. You ARE an outcast, we're letting you set up shop here as a sign of goodwill.
complaining over 1:6 scale is a sign of being extremely poor.
>>5611675

It's not about having 1/6, it's about only having 1/6, which is boring and a sign of being a rich normalfag.

Rich has nothing to do with it. I routinely buy $150+ robots and I don't consider myself rich. 1/6 movie junk is just pleb shit.
>>5620015
my issue is with hot toys, is that they look like standard action figures with barbie tier and texture clothing, which isn't an issue until i see the higher then standard price and have laugh while i grab my new comic issues.

>>5612397
That Blondie figure looks cool, anyone know what it is?
>>5620005
>>5620015
To me its more the selection of figures. If it was all interesting stuff like Predator or Robocop or whatever, it'd be cool, but why the fuck would you have There will be Blood action figures? That's's a weird thing I find about the 1/6 community; the need to have 1/6 representations of pretty mundane, boring design. I get aliens and cyborgs and superheroes, but why would you want a regular circa-1800s man toy? So boring.
And I like a lot of those movies, too, but they make terrible action figures. These things were SNL jokes decades ago (Philadelphia action Figures!)
>>5617475

>>5620093
>That's's a weird thing I find about the 1/6 community; the need to have 1/6 representations of pretty mundane, boring design
they view them as basically mini wax figures
>>5620105
That seems tacky. I mean, I love Orson Welles, for example, and his films, but I'd never want a Madame Tussaud's statue of him. And no, Unicron doesn't count
>>5620005
It's actually a sign of having good taste since 95% of 1:6 toys are garbage.
>>5619930
Are you retarded? That collection is basically hipster central.
Do you guys ever worry that one day you'll run out of room to display your collection, or that it will be so massive that it will seem more like a hoard than a collection?

oh wait, durp, you said top right. He's... Some Cy-Girls toy? He was a naked robot I had to look up what he was, I really liked him and I had some spare GI Joe clothes. I think this is the one I found at a flea market, I have a second of him I bought in the BST.
>>5621045
Oh no, the big guy on the far right. I thought it might be an F-Legion because the head looked kind of similar but I guess not. That's a great fucking deal though.

>>5622104
>>5620015
It's definitely more boring than 1/12 collections.
The lack of range of figures in 1/6 scale means a lot of the collectors have pretty similar collections where as with 1/12 you can find a much wider range of collectors and figures which leads to much more interesting collections.
1/6 collections are impressive but pretty generic on a whole.

There isn't even that much of a lack of range, you could just collect RAH and have shit ranging from flashpoint Batman to Star Wars to Tokushit to freaking Phantom of the Paradise. The problem is the only one's most 1/6 fags care about is shit like Hot Toys.

Post pics of your old collection and your new collection faggot
>>5622745
Ok, here's a pic of my collection from like 7 or 8 years ago.
>>5622745
>>5622771
This is what my collection looked like about 4 years ago when /toy/ said I was bullshitting about being black because my collection room looked nice. Posted a time stamped pic of my hand in the room...then everyone said I must have been a thief robbing a white family or some shit.

>a theif robbing a white family
More like a thief robbing a white weeb living off autismbux. Which is actually the perfect crime if you think about it.
>>5622785
It's 4chan, you should expect it. The average anon is a sheltered white autist that grew up thinking they could be a Naruto ninja or some shit. I doubt many of them have spoken to a black person that wasn't working behind a counter somewhere.
>>5622800
Not even sure what this means or how to take it.
>>5622812
I used to post on /b/ a lot many, many years ago, so believe me when I say I have thick skin and the 4chan racism doesn't even phase me. I find it amusing mainly because, like you said, the average poster here is a mal-adjusted, sheltered white guy who's probably never had any interaction with someone of a different race and just use the site as a way to vent their frustrations without any repercussions.
Anyway, this is a pic of my display about 2 years ago before my wife and I bought/moved into our current house.

That wood shelf is ugly as fuck
>>5612397
it must be nice to be rich
>>5622785
Nice decorating! I like it
>>5622822
I like your glass cases. Are those from IKEA or something? Where did you get them?
>>5622785
is that a airbrush painting of a wolf holding a pokeball?
>>5617404
He must have "issues'.
This is actually way more unsetlling than impressive in a ok/nice/cool/positive/whatever way.
>>5623025
Yes it is. I'm well aware of how tacky/weeb it is, but there's some history behind it.
Like I implied here>>5610876, I'm from New Orleans. To keep a long story short, the night before Hurricane Katrina hit, I was 18 and went to this crazy wild party with my girlfriend. We rented a hotel room, had drunk/high sex the whole night, and I woke up with a wicked hangover. After I dropped her off and went back to my parents' house, my mom said we had to leave because a huge hurricane was coming. Well, we had packed up left for hurricanes MANY times and NONE ever hit, so I decided, fuck it, I'll just throw some random shit in a bag and hit the road. The next day, the hurricane flooded our house and I lost pretty much everything except that shirt and a few other random but worthless things. I framed that air brushed shirt (which was one of the first things I actually airbrushed myself) because it felt good to actually have something survive destruction.
Sappy story, I know, but I don't even have the shirt hanging up anymore. Replaced it with a Jerry Rice jersey because I'm a huge 49er fan (even though I live in Saints Nation) and it looks better in my new room.

>cozy as hell/10
You think so? Looking at the pic, it was pretty cozy back then. I've always liked >>5622785 the best though. My current setup doesn't look much like any of my older setups though (probably because I have way more room now).
It's always good to look at your old setups/rooms and see the progression though.

>black guy has one of the nicest displays and homes on /toy/
neat
>>5623317
I wish it was less cluttered too!

>no weaboo shit
that's a 10/10
>>5612131
Your Marvel collection is nicely displayed, really digging it.

>it's possible for black people tobhave nice things
Who'd have thought, right? But it has a lot to do with my upbringing. My mom was an ocd neat freak, and my dad always stressed to me and my brother the importance of taking care of our shit (a black dad involved in his kids' lives? Another shocker).

Patrice O'Neal had a really interesting discussion on O&A how a lot of the reason a lot of black areas like projects are so shitty looking and umkempt is because there's no pride of ownership since a lot of them are only renting and not owning, so there's no sense of keeping things nice since you're not going to have it forever. It's also why you see people splurging on things like new Nikes or game systems or cars, because it's something they actually have to their name.One example he used was a caller asking why project hallways, stairs, elevators, etc look so shitty, sometimes soaked in piss and garbage, and he talked about how an apartment can be so cheap that you just fill it up with stuff while you just leave anything beyond your door to rot because its noting you own.
It's going off topic, but I thought that was some interesting insight. Obviously its not exclusive to black people, generally you see a lot of the same thing in squalors everywhere.
>>5624634
I guess that's why they never bother tying their fucking garbage bags up in shitty neighborhoods.
>>5624520
>weeaboo shit
Fuck off
>>5624634
>>5624634
That makes a lot of sense, but only to a degree.
I remember when I first moved out of my mom's house at 24. The only place I could afford was renting a small 2 bedroom house with my cousin in the ghetto (seriously, drug dealers everywhere, the guy next door got shot with a submachine gun one night at 3am, etc). We never bothered to plant flowers or make the outside of the house look nice because there was no point. The entire neighborhood looked like shit, the landlady didn't give a fuck, so neither did we. It wasn't OUR house. We did keep the inside of the house looking nice because neither of us wanted to live in garbage.
However, when I moved from that house to a more upscaled apartment complex on the "rich" side of town, I felt almost obligated to keep the outside of my patio looking nice. It was a completely different culture with a whole different set of expectations. You were sort of expected to keep your space (inside and out) looking nice because that was the thing to do. I didn't own that apartment or patio, but I and everyone else made sure it looked nice.
Now I'm in a house and I completely feel the need to make my house, inside and out, look awesome. It's sort of a pride thing at this point. I don't want to be "that guy" with the shitty yard. There's not really a culture of having a 10/10 yard around here though because it's really a middle/middle class neighborhood and a starter home, though. Still, because I OWN this house, I'm going to take care of it, and most of my neighbors (aside from the ones renting), feel the same way.
I think it's been a year since I last took a pic. I have two detolfs now. Not really feeling the left one, I may take out the NECA stuff and replace it with the odd Figma and SHF that are in storage at the moment (mostly tokusatsu stuff.

So...what does your current setup look like? Or have you posted it already? I'm confused.
