    Anything that doesn't fit into this "final display setup" is likely to be donated to a loving home

    I've often wondered what I'm gonna do with all mine.
    I have just about as many full bins.
    On top of what's displayed in my current bedroom. (None in the living room, except a few alternators)
    Anyway, I've been waiting to be in a more permanent residnece, but its daunting to imagine if and how to display it all.
    I'm interested to see how it turns out for you, man.
    Love your current display, btw!

    Thanks!!!

    What's scary is this is a 15x15 windowless room so it's almost pure wall space and I still don't think it'll fit everything...

    If that's the case, my plan is to pluck those bins down to just some main show cast representatives from each line and call it a day...

    But then that leads me to, when am I done collecting?

    Probably once MP/3PMP finish out the S1-3 cast

    I just got an MP-10 from HLJ and one of his antenna is severely bent and there is a large scratch under his left eye. I asked HLJ for just a replacement head as I don't want to exchange the entire figure since there are no other QC issues. Has anyone got just parts from HLJ? Or will I have to return the entire thing?

    Looks like we'll find out soon how much of that collection fits :)

    Loving all of the recent pics!

    I finally had a chance to mess around with Masterpiece Loudpedal in robot mode. I'm loving the old throwback G1 face sculpt!

    Some Loudpedal-and-preTF-gang images :)  I adore that CS sticker on him something fierce, it's pure Diaclone love.

    Not the best MP to come out thus far with a pretty fiddly transformation but still looks pretty good. Excited for the Beast Wars ones though and Inferno!

    Thanks. The blurred background and lighting effects gives way to a real emergency.

    We could always ask OTL. Not sure if he has a Devastator or not.

    Man I love this SO MUCH. This is PRECISELY what I wanted to do for my Clampdown article, just various rain-soaked night time noir-style backgrounds and Clampdown in various poses and states of action.

    Great work!

    All the best
    Maz

    I don't post pictures very often, mainly because I have no good camera. But I had to share these. Finally ordered that Tecrom Primacron figure from Shapeways to display him on my S3 shelf with good old Grimlock. Don't they look beautiful together?
