Well, good sir, it isn't as if I can transform all of mine in one afternoon! No! If I get the itch to do so, I usually have to take it one shelf at a time. And if I decided to do everything all at the same time, I'd probably want to be taking at least a week. Maybe a week and a half.
Of course, that addresses the time issue, and not so much the space issue... And gestalts, especially, do take up more space in their separated forms then they do when they are combined. So I suppose I could grant that. I have one specific shelf for my Decepticon gestalts, and it is definitely more roomy when they are combined. It took some effort in rearranging things, but I think I have some room now for the Autobot combiners I will also soon have, thanks to Unite Warriors. Really, the only thing I don't have room for on the shelf a figure usually lives on is Metroplex's city mode. A shame, as it is an awesome looking mode... but he ends up spending most of his time as either a robot or in his carrier mode. Still, once in a great while I do say, "The hell with it!" and let him just take up some floor space for a few days to a week.
(Good thing I have an understanding girlfriend!)
But if you have less space available, and you figures are trapped eternally in one mode... Well, I shall weep for them.
(Joking... It is your collection, you can do what you want with 'em... Even if I still don't get owning Transformers and not actually transforming them!
