    So I asked a friend of mine recently....

    "How many times do you sit & marvel/look/appreciate your collection?"

    His answer was not in a while or something to that effect.

    For me I look at my display maybe 3 - 4 times a week.... ish... I just kinda sit there & have a little me time & @ the same time appreciate what I got & of course think of what I don't got! ahahah!

    I mean we, as collectors, for the most part spend a lot of money on our TF's so I just wonder how many peeps out there just look @ your collection & just say... "ya I LOVE my collection!"

    Not nearly as often as I should... Maybe ... every couple of weeks? When I clean it up?

    Well, it's in my room, so I see it everyday, but I don't often just stare at it with a look of accomplishment and go "Yeah..."

    I live in a studio flat, so my bedroom, living room and collection are the same place.

    There's only one wall which doesn't have toys against it, and the only time I'm facing that, I have toys just off to the left of me... I spend a lot of time looking at my toys, and only partly because I can't avoid them :)

    Everything I have displayed is in my room.

    So I look at my collection everyday.

    From the moment I open my eyes in the morning.

    When I'm not at work or writing way too many papers for college, I'm probably transforming one of my figures lol.

    I have no display case at the minute, so my entire collection is boxed. I have probably £500-600 of Masterpieces that I can't even display :(

    My collection is mostly in my bedroom so I see it everyday. I usually don't pay much attention to it since it's always there, but I do occasionally stop to admire it.

    To answer your question I look at my collection atleast 5 or 6 times a day,as I have them on both sides of me in my bed,hanging from the ceiling,and just everywhere in between.I just wish I had more room to display all of my collection,but alas I don't.

    Every single day. Living in a very small apartment does that. It towers over my desk as I type on the computer. My collection lives only for Conquest.

    I have my core favorites by my tv in my bedroom and the others in my computer room to my left and right. So I look at them all the time.

    My collection is spread across my entire apartment, so I can't be home and not see it.

    I look at them at least five times a day lol. My dog loves to hide in my closet, so when I'm out hunting for him, I stop and admire their awesomeness!
