Edited for posterity, had some downtime and added another area for some FSS, Dollar Joes, and new stuff. Found a Python Con bundle, Jetfire, and a Dr. Evil Adventure Set that I have to pull out. I want to get the FSS over to the 25th but my kids woke up, enough for today.
Over in the corner are unopened cases of that I saved also. Hidden behind are 5 shystrikers that I bought for 10 bucks on clearence at Target, but I needed to support other boxes. If anyone thinks I'm missing anything let me know!

That is beautiful! But beware of sunlight fading your packaging if you leave them exposed too long (I know from experience!). There's film you can put over the glass to protect from UV rays or you could simply drape over your displays in the path of the sunlight when you're not admiring them!

God dammit Mainframe... open your toys!
In all seriousness, this is a beautiful site my friend. I own about 99% of what you have here, but do not yet have the room to display it- I will in less than a month though when I move! Thanks for sharing buddy.

Can't argue with you there. How much did you pay for that Roddy Piper? I had 2 opportunities to get him but passed both times because I can't quite consider him a ME figure with that old new-sculpt design. The "25th" on the packaging is the only real indication that he should be included.

Nice collection Mainframe. I see some things I'd like to have. Perhaps I could visit your collection when you're not home
As for keeping sunlight out, might I suggest looking into room darkening curtains. We have them in my son's bedroom and they keep the sun out very well. But it also would allow you to let some natural light in when you want. Also, I'm curious why you have multiples of certain items if they're just staying MOC? Were they going to be part of a display or just a bargain to good to pass up? |

Got him for 200 2 years ago, decent deal. I know he's old sculpt, but my collection would feel naked without it. I don't know what you were offered but for that price to me he's worth it.
