The Energon Pub

Got given this pine bookcase today and figured it make a nice display area for my figures. Obviously I have owned many more Transformers over the years but I like to keep my collection relatively small and eventually sell off the ones I'm bored or was disappointed with and keep my faves.



Will post more close up pics when I'm less tired.

Nice setup you have there.

Thanks. Was gonna add more pics but am waiting for The Last Knight figures to be released very soon before I do.

Dude! That is a nice choice of display!
Do the TFs have a logic to them, or are they just your favourites overall?

There's some logic, yeah. Left side is G1 updates and right side is movieverse, voyagers at back, then deluxes then scouts/legends. Titans Megatron is in the center with classics Prime and Movie Prime either side of him cos you gotta have Prime and Megatron together and I haven't got a movie Megs but the TLK Voyager will take his rightful place between Titans Megatron and movie Prime when he's available. The Marvel figure of Death's Head is front center due to size but also cos he's one of my fave characters from all of various TF canon and he's also been known to hop between dimensions due to various circumstances (the Doctor, of which a later incarnation at top right of the whole unit is visible, was often behind those) so there's nothing saying he can't encounter the movieverse TFs in my own personal canon even if in reality he's Marvel while all comic rights are currently IDW. But yes also mostly these are faves. Have owned many, many TFs over the years and just sell on the older or boring ones to raise money for newer ones cos I'm long term unemployed due to reasons.

oh and PM Prime at the bottom cos of shelf space and cos the movie Prime helmet had to go there too and it's like a nice symbol of my childhood TF fan (I remember the birthday I got that PM Optimus Prime) and the movie helmet being my adult TF fan.

My Studio Series shelf.

Ok I have RotF Legends Ravage there too cos why not? And I have Black Mamba Ancient Leader in place of SS Grimlock (which I sold) cos I required the extra size and other upgrades.
Also have 'Goldbug' (retro pop Bumblebee) but i might sell it.

Also SS05 Optimus Prime has been relegated to the next shelf down cos didn't want two similar ones on top.
I did have most of them on their display stands but had to put those away til I get more spacious shelving. And I sometimes have RotF Bludgeon, TLK Hound, TLK voyager Optimus Prime, TLK voyager Megatron and TLK wave 3 Bumblebee up there cos they fit in nicely for scale and awesomeness but the shelf is getting kinda crowded so they too are on the next shelf down.
