I forgot to add in my previous post that 90% of the time my toys are displayed on shelves.

For now because I dont have anywhere to display my Joes I keep them in snacksize ziplock bags individualy marked.I then have them in gallon size ziplock bags per year.All in one big box.
When ever I buy lots and get them in the mail I do usually set them up with all their weapons and play with them a little bit.I have been buying my 7 and 3 year olds some of the 25th figs and I like to play with them and set up battle scenes.My 7 year old is already too into video games so he doesnt do it much but my 3 year old has a blast. Someday when my collection is complete and I have a basement/mancave to myself I plan on setting up a huge battle scene. |

Ha! You guys are great. Thanks for all the replies. I'm going to nerd it up again soon. My 7 year old has taken an interest in Joe's lately. I had bought him the "True Heroes" knockoffs since I didn't know if he would break them or not. Maybe I'll pick him up some of the newer stuff.
Thanks again. |

The house we currently live in is just big enough for my family and I. Its only a 3 bedroom and we have 3 boys. Needless to say, I don't have my own room for my stuff right now. Its one of the things we are looking for in our next house when we move in a year or so. As of right now, I have a 6 foot tall bookcase with 5 shelves to display my stuff on that I just bought and its in our bedroom.
I have the entire 2000 joe collection, all out of box sadly but set up because of the Joe base, the loose figures/weapons are in zip lock bags. When I picked began to collect the 25th anniversary figures I decided to keep them in their boxes........ |

Out of curiosity, what do you teach your kids about joes, your collection I mean, are they allowed to touch it etc ?

I'm 25. Mine sit on a shelf, as I really don't have time to actually "play" with them, and frankly, I just can't bring myself to, even (especially) when I'm alone. The magic of playing with myself is just gone. Er... um... yeah...
Fortunately, I have 5 nephews, age 5-16 who all have Joes, and I get my fix at least once a week having battles with them. The 16 year old is fortunately a cool guy who's not afraid to have fun with his little brothers, so we have excellent drawn out Sunday afternoon battles. That is truly fun, as I think the wide-eyed wonder and excitement children bring is really what it's all about. Right now, my own collection is on a bookshelf displayed, until I can buy the IKEA case I want. After that, they'll sit displayed in that case, until my 2 month old son is old enough to play with them. Then, its war time, baby!!!
