The Energon Pub

Well I need some input and pictures from everyone on how your display or show your Transformers? Does anyone have stands, cases, shelving that they place their Transformers to show. Also, just bought a house and need some ideas either or build something to place or put my Transformers in that looks nice! So anyone information and or pics would be great.

Thanks to all

buy a BIG dresser and put your tfs on that along with your tv. I did that. if you run out of room, put them on shelves. I only put my most important on my dresser. ie, G1 megatron, custom botcon megatron, Animated megatron, SDCC Nemesis prime, masterpeice starscream, and universe galvatron.

If you dig through the boards you should be able to find quite a few topics devoted to member's collections with pictures of their displays. You should be able to get some good ideas that way. For the most part just plain old bookcases or shelving units.

Unfortunately I don't have that much self space. I have a glass kerio cabinet where i store most of my Hasbro and Japanese Commenative, and some of my original G1s (my proud acquisitions from Ebay including Thrust, Ramjet, Sunstreaker, and Trailbreaker and some I've kept over the years Galvatron, Blitzwing and Bumble Bee). I have exposed shelves for Alternators and Masterpieces. The rest go in boxes.
Wish i had pictures.

I had 3 pretty big dressers when I was living on my own, all proudly displaying my TF's. ...Looked great...

Now that I'm living with my girlfriend, I'm only "allowed" to have one dresser full of my favorite TF's. We've also agreed that a Kerio Cabinet in the living room would look good displaying a handful of TF's. We ordered on and are waiting on it to arrive in the mail.

I saw one guy with a HUGE collection inside of stacked up 10 gallon fishtanks. Looked pretty good, wish I still had the pics.

Impressive collection and ingenius idea with the aquariums. Hats off to this fellow.

I have two full-sized five-shelf bookshelves and just put them all in robot mode on the top four (the minicons and spychangers and the like are in tackleboxes on the bottom shelves). None are on top of the bookcases as the cat loves to hop up there and nap.

unfortunately the majority of the pics in the previous "how do you display your stuff" thread are MIA, but here it is for your viewing pleasure.

Might still be able to get some good ideas from it.

Holy crap are those some old pics of my collection! It doesn't even look close to the same now.

I recommend Ikeas Billy bookcase system with added glass doors and shelves.

Depends on how many you have. I have only a small number and they're displayed on my bookcase with my comics, books and dvds.

that's looking really good geekee. I especially like the shelves centered in the pic

I might have to get some of those Billy shelves with the glass shelves and doors. Right now I have mine displayed on some bookshelves in my living room (which I think are also Billy shelves, but with wood shelves and no glass doors), but it's not much shelf space, so half my collection is currently packed away in plastic containers in a cabinet. Just last night I got the idea of clearing all the bookshelves in my spare bedroom and moving my whole collection there, where there'd be enough shelf space for all my TFs, including an unused desk with lots of space.

Click the link in my signature to see my collection, although it's actually grown by 30% since then...

Sorry, due to the recent crash the pics aren't there. Maybe I'll snap a couple later.

LOTS OF SHELVES Them plastic bastards have thier own room wich is as I write this...OUT OF ROOM I need to post up some pics. I still like my idea of a "collections" forum where we can post threads about our individual collections. Kinda like Carbombya feedback but just for member's collections.

In a big pile.

Just one or is there a different pile for each line (G1, Energon, etc)?

Just one.

The bigger the pile the more of a fan you are.

Really? Time to run home and take down all those stupid shelves I put up then!

i have a bunch of shelves in my room but i am runnig out of space for more shelves. and i like put them in action poses and some are left in vehicle modes, and i sort them by series. i love em all.

The only people who see my Tfs are my girlfriend and my parents so I don't REALY make an effort to make them look nice.

I have 4 rows of shelving in my office that takes up about 1/2 the wall space. Those are filled with my superhero stuff.

The TFs have their own 36" shelf and I have 4 layers of them. Alts & MP's at the top, Autobot "classics" next then Decepticon "classics" and finally TF:A. The TF:A stuff replaced the movie stuff. Once TF2 comes out I'll probably swap back.
