So, it's been quiet in here. Just how it needs to be while some serious reconfiguration-transformation goes down. As it is with collections, when they're serious they can have a habit of out growing their environment. As it is here in 'Tron. I decided it was time for a change up. My desk was absolutely out of control. I had no room to think or create!
So I chose to pack away Micronopolis, the shelf that was home to my smallest TFs. Legends, Legions, PCC, Cyberverse, and a few appropriately scaled G1 toys like Trypticon and the combiners I have, as well as some other fun small odds and ends. And all of TR and some of CW moved into their space.
To get those G1 toys off that shelf, I also decided to separate my Microman/Micronaut collection out from the G1 TFs and give them their own zone.
Microzone!
Here is about 75% of my G1 stuff on stand by.
And here is the G1 shelf in it's completed form.
I took this opertunity to add some nice color changeing LED pucks I I salvaged from the
Axiom Chronicles display I built for the cartoon convention. Thanks to the new bossman for those!
And Microzone!
I love this collection. It is the best!
I thought it would be fun for anyone who might be interested, to get a closer look at one of
my favsies Microman toys. Since I had it out and moved it.
From the Microman Magna Power series circa '99/2000, the Microstation. That line did a cool job of cuntinuing the mythos of Microman with the microchange environment.
From "Playstation" to BATTLESTATION!
There are a few elements of the base I don't use in the display, like a sweet U shaped track that some fun wind-up Microman toys can ride in/on.
It also has a space cruiser mode, but it's really not that different than B-station.
Finally, Titans Return have moved from my desk to their own luxury condo.
The only TR fig that didn't land over there was Alpha Trion, who gets a permanent seat at Galactic Headquarters, i.e. my desk.
Big dirty Cons.
Autobots UNITE!
Dual of the Fates!
I'll probably go back and take more comprehensive shots of each shelf in a humanitarian effort to rebuild the Seibertron presence of the Collect-O-Tron, after the devastation of the Great PhuckYouBucket.com Debacle of 2017.
Also while the reset was going on, the fires of acquisition were still burning hot.
Loving these two figs! Most you guys probably read my thoughts on these guys in the PotP thread, so will just close out the update with some photos.
Since Laser Prime gets front seat on the TR shelf, and my 3 year old lost regular retail Prime's head, I thought his weapons worked great for Grim. Especially the double barreled blaster!
Dino Squad to date.
I'd like to take a moment to once again thank Primus for the Platinum re-release of G1 Prediking and his armory of awesome golden bladed swords!
