A couple of old photos from the Norwich shelf. At the moment, I have Optimus, Kup, Ironhide and Bumblebee (plus Sideswipe in alt-mode) in ready-for-battle mode on the left, facing Hatchet, Sideways, Crankcase, Shockwave and Megatron. But no camera.
Top shelf is Skyhammer (alt) and Terradive on left, Darkmount and Lockdown (alt) on right. And Classics Grimlock on desk. Because he's cute.

While I won't clog up your thread with my list, I will say that there's nothing wrong with a particular era of toys to have. Nor even mixing and matching G1 with "Armada" and "Prime". If I still had my collection, I would've done that.
I'd say that I don't really have collecting criteria, apart from what I think looks good. Kind of on an IDW Wrecker bend at the moment, but I might limit myself to Blurr, Drift, Kup and Perceptor (maybe Guzzle, maybe).
As for the rest, waiting for DOTM Soundwave, to decide whether to complete the Decepticon corner.
Very quick update: the addition of DOTM Leader Sentinel Prime. I've moved some figures from Italy back to the UK, as I'll be moving house next month (into a studio flat) so I'll have SHELVES! (In Lugnut's voice: GLORIOUS SHELVES!)
Those are some nice commissions you've got there! I've been dying to get something from Nick, be it a sketch, signature, or page from a comic. I assume you met him at a convention in Europe? I wish he'd come stateside so I could get my wreckers stuff signed...
