Even with action figure stands (in this case ARAH-mold Viper Pit Vipers), hit 'em just right and :/
Fortunately, I apply the Serenity Prayer and change what I can by just taking a deep breath, getting down on my stomach so I can reach under and behind the shelf where some fell to retrieve them, and set them up again. This used to happen to me all the time. I am not Natalie Portman in "Black Swan." Well, at least not the graceful ballerina part. Delusional and neurotic, however... ...but I digress. I tell you truly: Action figure stands pay for themselves in the end. Had these not been stand-ed the whole shelf would have been wiped out. Any amusing anecdotes/cautionary tales to tell?

The serenity prayer part is the only thing that made sense to me.

Oh. I agree 100%. My wife hit my "rare" shelf and BLAM!!!!
All over the place. It even broke the thumb off my golden Storm Shadow. I did manage to move one shelf up and one down and only dropped 1 Tele-Viper. Is was a zen moment for me. Keep in mind both shelves had 40 figures on them. I felt like a fat ninja! Last edited by nerdsgetchicks; 10-29-2011 at 01:49 PM.. |

I still have nightmares from trying to set up 25th Vipers.

My Masters of the Universe figures can easily be described as a house of cards.

weak ankles and massive chests have also been the downfall of many a football player as well....
