Only a few pics, got my new 4GB SD Card today. Sorry about the low quality but it's a crappy camera that I got for free and it doesn't have any instructions to it. I don't really have a fancy shelf or anything like most of you, I'll get something better to put them on in the future though.

The books on the table in the last pic are the trade paperbacks for Infiltration, Stormbringer and Escalation and I'll be adding the trade paperbacks for Devastation, Spotlights, Megatron Origin and All Hail Megatron when I can get them

I know my collection isn't much but it's growing pretty rapidly and I have a few more figures on the way and after my ebay items all sale I have someone holding enough figures for me that I plan to buy and my collection will literally double. Right now I'm building up TFs for my own little Universe, using G1 looking figures and figures that have great articulation. So far I'm happy as hell with what I got, but I still can't wait to add to it.

Thanks, I put a lot of effort into getting them and before I started collecting again and buying Classics off of eBay I only had Classics Megatron, Classics Prime and Classics Starscream.

I think I've already been through the bang pretty much, that happened when I more than doubled my collection in under a month but I'm pretty sure more 'bangs' are sure to come.

I have 2 shelfs I have to put up on the wall but they are small and meant for books, like my trade paperback collection I'm starting.

The table is my mom's spare table and the only thing I could fit them all on and now she wants the table back. So for putting up big shelfs I will have to wait till I have an apartment of my own, the house we live in now is a double wide trailer and my rooms doesn't have a lot of space. But when I'm living all alone I'll be sure to have them all up and displayed nice and neat. :mrgreen:

DUDE, TRACK!

You can put up a million shleves on one wall with only 4 screws for cheap.

And yeah, those bangs are gonna turn to wallops, but if you can survive them, the ride is awesome. Click the link below, you'll see I was once like you as so many of us were

I looked into track shelving from B&Q but cos I wanted some large shelves (45cm deep) to display things like G1 Scorponok and battle scenes it worked out that covering a 6feet wall would cost over £100! I managed to find some nice looking shelf units at less than half that and then I'll put some narrow fixed or track shelves above for a simple line up display. Hopefully the shelves will come today so I can finally get ALL my figures on display together. I CAN'T WAIT!

That's a bummer about the cost of shelving where ever you are.
I can go to Menards and pickup the tracks for about 3-4 bucks each
and a 3-4 foot long/10 inch wide shelf for less than 10 dollars. 25 bucks would give me a good amount of shelving if I went that way.
Hell I bought some ferring strips for less than 2 dollars each to put some small stuff on the wall.
