since i took a bunch of new pictures, i figured i might as well open a topic here
collection as-is on 16-jun-2016

small overview:

Nice collection! I sold all my classics and I'm going for a masterpiece style collection now. If I see (and can afford) some good 3rd party stuff, I'll get those too.

Are those shelves custom made?

actually the pics aren't accurate anymore, since for the past weeks i've been laying off my generations stuff in favour of MP style figures.

those shelves are IKEA Ivar-type modular shelving, and i painted them white (though not very well).

I like the Ivar shelves painted in white. I know you said you didn't do it well, but it looks like a white wash. Cobotron suggested these shelves to me and seeing them in another setup is making me like'em even more.

I like your setup and your MP collection is looking good! Is the MP cabinet an Ikea purchase as well?

How do you like your Hot Rodimus and trailer? I have been toying around with getting an MP Hot Rod/Rodimus Prime...

wow mate. I could let my inner child run wild in there for hours. well done!

However this thread makes me nervous, i'm new back to collecting and i've missed the last say seven years, so this is showing me how much money i might be spending in the near future

I love it, especially the combiners. Do i see a new version of Computron there?

i didn't do it well enough, because in a lot of places the original wood color ius still showing through. the cabinet, like almost every furniture in my house, is Ikea too, it's a Hemnes. i'm ..... ok with rodimus. he's a nightmare to transform properly and apparently has some breakage issues related to him. he also has trouble keeping his rifles in his hands, but i think he looks great

yes, that is the Maketoys version of computron, Quantron. it's a 3rd party combiner, sold as a set.

Hey! I took your invitation.

The whole spread looks fantastic! I like the white wash on the Ivars. Your lucky you still have so much room to grow. I hope for you, that some day your Ivars are as crowded as mine.

You have a nice broad diversity of stuff. Really fun to see it all together.

Now I'm off to your none TF thread.
Cheers!

Meant to ask this before but what are the cabinets that you have the MP figures in?

that's an Ikea Hemnes display case. they're available in all kinds of types

There's nothing I like more than seeing a well orginized collection with lots of room for growth.

thank you
