Hello all - I've been a member here since 2009 and was a lurker for some years before that. In some way, since around 1996, I've always displayed my figures whether it was just on some shelves in my middle school bedroom to my post-college walk-in closet where I had all kinds of scenes set up inside it. I finally bought my own house in 2014 and after a year of remodeling and stripping it to the bones and back, I moved in. All my Star Wars toys were in plastic bins waiting to be freed until this year - ironically, COVID gave me the time needed to really get cracking on my walkout basement. I still need to do some floor molding and fill nail holes/paint, but I couldn't resist popping 2 Detolfs together (I bought 4 in total) and I'll be looking to get some larger display cabinets and more actual shelving for the walls soon. I've always collected as if I was recreating "scenes" so what you see is an essence of the media and the particular locale. The figures start at the Legacy Collection where I really got back into collecting and continue straight through the introduction of TVC all the way up to now in TVC 2.0 - a few of the Mando figures were bought just yesterday!
I am just ecstatic to finally have a space to celebrate all this stuff and I think the pictures and setups speak volumes of TVC - Star Wars is about world-building and interaction with vehicles and playsets. It's the main reason I don't collect 6" all - I don't feel they are that much more detailed nor do they lend themselves to this sort of scene building. I plan on doing a huge HOTH diorama with my BAT-AT and will have to find a spot for the Millennium Falcon as well as the Sail Barge. I have a big dresser that the Barge can go on, but does anyone have ideas for the BMF? The Detolfs are PERFECT for helmets, too!
As you can see, I still have a TON to unpack! Loads of ESB, ANH and ROTJ in there.
