    Basically, what are the weirdest/most imaginative placements of pieces of collection that people around here have or have heard of?

    Okay, I'd also like to ask if anyone has hanged any TF figures with flight alt modes from the roof or so?

    P.S. If there has been half a dozen threads like this too recently already, pardon me.

    Technically, however I place my figures is in fact the Funkiest way to do it.

    ^ You have ended this thread.

    I once though of hanging my jets form the ceiling, but it's too kiddie for me.

    The problem with hanging jets from the ceiling is that then their bottoms will become most prominent - and they tend to be rather kibbletastic...

    Megaracertron - you say it lights up, but there aren't any photos for proof!

    I'm just speechless with Megaracertron.

    Honestly, I'm not sure whether to be jealous or concerned. Images of "40 Year Old Virgin" are running rampant through my head now.

    You've been Seacon'd, literally.


    My display case I'm going to getting some of that ticky tack or whatever its called putty and stringing the flyers up from the shelves.

    Dig the floating Primus though, might have to do that.

    That would be risky to hang a Transformer from sticky tack. I have small glow in the dark stars on my ceiling, that are held up by sticky tack. I have to put stars back up all the time due to them falling. I would not trust it to hold up a TF.

    How did you know I was 40?? I get that joke all the time??? I just think of Transformer as Art more than toys and Believe me I am a bit Concerned too but I can stop now!! Wait until I add the Bridge!!


    You can also Trust That is Does light up a beautiful Glowing Green when the Lights are off, But it isnt bright enough for a good picture.

    Would it help to tilt them so that their bottoms are more against the wall? Okay, its not just a question of aesthetics, but practicality as well, as it'd save space on the shelves too XP

    And Megaracertron, congrats on almost endin' this thread before it even began XD Man, you just either have too much free time at hand or you've taken quite a long time buildin' all that bit by bit :p  (j/k but I had to say that)

    I always wanted to embed shelves in my walls, mainly the hallway with some clear fiberglass sheets on them, for that museum like display, and without them getting in the way of anything (like poor balanced drunks)

    Well my collection is displayed on shelves in my room with Purple walls and pink bed and curtains, and rug... Although I did have Classics Mirage standing on one leg for a while.
