Funny thing is it was sitting on an actual boat trailer.
We need pix!
What kind of display cases/shelves are ya'll using for your collectibles? I think I'm going to need some. Getting tired of having to dust off my stuff.
Im going back by there tomorrow, so I definitely will.
That Leia is my favourite design for her, but I've resisted getting any HT so far. I'm assuming Wicket drives up the price like crazy too.
People are monsters. Saw this today at my local walmart:
And this is NOT the new 80th Anniversary Retro Cap:
I was so excited when I saw Cap's box on the pegs, too, but then I got closer and saw that, one of the old Cap figures in the box.
Those Super7 TMNT figures they showed off look pretty great. I'm running out of room on my TMNT shelf though :(
I need these and the Batman vs TMNT figures coming out soon.
You can purchase them separately. Leia is $227.99 and Wicket is $196.99, or as a bundle along with the stormtrooper and Death Star trooper helmets, it's $5 cheaper at $419.99.
Potential price (I assume 45 to 50) is scaring me from getting yet another line, though. Well, that and the sprues. If those weapon racks really have clippable sprues that's probably a no from me, nostalgia or no.
I am using IKEA Detolfs for 99 percent of my collection and some cheap floating shelves from Amazon for the other 1 percent.

I had the original when I was a kid. Is this one motorized too?

It would be funnier if the door was in his butt.It can swallow the smallest Transformers, though. You retrieve them from a door in the torso.
Are super7 figures closer to Figuarts quality than Neca's? Figuarts Turtles are about the same price (~$50). Now that I have the movie turtles I want to jump into getting some comic/toon Turtles as well, but there are so many out there.
I guess it'd be kinda pricey but I wish Mezco would make their own Turtles for the One:12 line.
Not really. Closer to NECA I'd say and they've had some QC issues in the past.
The pricing is based on the fact they're a smaller company than NECA where their products are aimed more at collector's with no retail space. They're also increasing the prices sadly to accommodate the incoming tariffs as well.
delet this
Did Punisher come with all those gun/effects accessories? Me likey
The long term plan when I have a place for it that doesn't require it to also be a TV stand is to buy a custom acrylic display case to sit on top so I can set up whatever fun scenes pop into my head every couple weeks. Figured it would be a nice conversation piece and will also keep my collection organized & contained so I don't feel overrun with plastic superpowered people.
Very nice! I preordered the Legends Iron Man coming out later this year and I'm super stoked it comes with some energy/blast effects.Yes he comes with the gatling/minigun effect handgun firing effect pieces.
Oh hey, I wanted to ask you about the custom acrylic display case you were thinking about getting. Where would you go about getting one custom made? You mentioned it here:
Nice tv stand setup btw. I need to figure out where to store my boxes.

And thanks! I really wanted to make sure I kept all my stuff organized cause it can get out of control very quickly hahaha. Haven't decided on a specific place to get a display case but there are a few sites that do custom ones. Here's one I have in my bookmarks. Just really unsure if the pricing is reasonable since I have little experience with acrylic work but based on display cases I've seen at retail it seems about right.
Which Iron Man is that? Can't have enough Iron Man figures.
Thanks for the link to the custom display case. I've been trying to figure out a good somewhat portable solution for display cases. I saw the Ikea detolf and it seems those are really popular among collectors but I need something that can be easily moved around. I don't have any experience with acrylic cases, but those seem like they fit me more.
The Endgame Man figure (Amazon link, and lol it's already out of stock):Which Iron Man is that? Can't have enough Iron Man figures.

Oh myyy
Wow. That Mezco Punisher looks great and the fire effects are a cool accessory too! I haven't jumped on the Mezco One stuff but every time I see a new preorder I'm always tempted...lol
How about the ModuCases?
They're pricey but you get what you pay for and their official site offers different configurations you can order, plus the individual cubes snap and stack together if you want to make a bigger display.
The only issues I hear is the cases availability as ordering them takes a couple of months arrive. Sideshow and BBTS offer them as well.
The Endgame Man figure (Amazon link, and lol it's already out of stock):
I hadn't gotten my hands on Stark yet so jumped in while I knew I could get it for MSRP. Each of his suits have something I like and don't like, so coming with the gauntlet and energy effects didn't make me feel like I needed to put more down for something else (altho some of the higher-end Endgame variations look super nice).
Those Ikea displays are pretty nice looking. I'm a real stickler for keeping my figs in-box unless I have a scene I want to set (and I'm also trying to have a respectable collection while avoiding dumb comments from people who think it's immature) so I'd probably only get one of those for the stuff I have that don't have any boxes. But honestly I would prefer to have a few small 1-figure cases to set some figures up around the house while avoiding dust accumulation.
Speaking of figures out-of-box, I got the Legends Endgame Cap figure with Mjolnir a while ago and in order to adhere to my "one variation of a character at a time*" rule I traded my Age of Ultron Cap to a friend for this baby:
And if I happen to buy a case any time soon, or find any that I particularly like, I'll be sure to drop a review here for ya :)
That Carrie Kelley figure on the far right - could you give me some info on it? I have the DC Multiverse figure but I'm not very happy with it and would like to update at some point and of course there aren't many others on the market (which is kind of surprising considering how popular DKR is).
Those pics are not bad. MY pics are bad lol

Thanks much!She's part of the DC Collectibles Batman: The Animated Series: Batman, Robin & Mutant Leader Action Figure (3 Pack)
Sweet collection! I see you have the Mezco Knightmare Batman. Bummed that I missed the window on that one. Which batsignal do you have up top there?
Finally...some competition! :)
Finally...some competition! :)
BTW, what risers are you using? I couldn't find any that fit what I was looking for, but yours seem to be perfect.
I need to update my pics (2 years old), but here's mine.
There
This one?I commented on your collection almost two years ago lol, its great, my collection was way smaller at that point. The risers I have are these 6 tier acrylic risers I bought off Amazon. They have a a lot five tier ones last time I saw, and these 6 tier ones were rare, but maybe nowadays things have changed. I remember the five tier being too wide.
