U think that's messy?Your well organized compared to me!:hmlol:
Start by recycling all of the packages. Yes, I know that is going to be hard to think about, I went through the same thing about 6 months ago.
I was about to joke and say send it to me, but then had the serious thought: "where would I put all that?"" :hmlol:
It looks like Count Marzo's house!
looks a little horder-esque. :lol: first get some kind of system even if it's push pins to hang up those carded figures, at least it gets them out of the way, then figure out how to display the rest. a collection makes no sense if it's not displayed, if you lack the room look into storage for the time being. my latest acquisition I{ haven't made space for, I need to get on that, put up some more temp shelves etc. until my house is built I won't be able to display as I wish, but it's better than nothing.
Wait a sec. Your collection fits in just one room? Come back and talk to us when you have a real problem. :hmwink:
I went through the same thing around 2005. At some point you realize you can't have a big collection if everything is MOC. I decided to keep just a few things sealed but opened the rest. If it was something I didn't think I would enjoy loose then I realized I didn't need it and either sold it or gave it to a friend. I kept my MOC 80's toys sealed of course.
Storage totes my friend.....stackable storage totes. Or more shelving. Start displaying!
its getting better my friends watch my youtube videos and see
They are hard to find these days, but old fashioned jumbo storage cartons can help at least get the stuff you can't put up away safely and soundly, and also actaully gives you some space to display stuff, both on top and on the flat sides. The problem with the plastic containers is that they aren't flush on the sides. Downside with the cardboard cartons is that they aren't as sturdy, but packing them carefully and not overstuffing them helps keep them from bulging. They can line up neatly along the wall.
