Ever get that slight tingling feeling each time you walk into a Toy Shop?
Taking in the sight of all those toys and the only one word that keeps repeating in your head is BUY BUY BUY! Like a broken record player?
Well I sure do feel that way and I bet you collectors & hobbyist would feel the same too.
Therefore this JUNE I decided I will do just THAT! A TOY SHOP ROOM I MUST HAVE! And it’s my Birthday Present to myself. (Reader mind: psycho…..echoing)
Let’s Start….
Firstly need to find an expert on installation and not demolitions, because if I were to do all this on my own, I would be just that!
So after much searching I found aka “Ah Choy”, my mother plumber….LOLZ! (Good Man, Force strong with this one!)
This is the first display sleeves above my TV, for my 12inch figures
(which still have not arrive!)
(which still have not arrive!)
Sleeves are 4ft long.
6 Ft Glass Display
Now for the main display, which consist of 5ft long glass sleeves (all 6 inch width), to display my unopened figures. For this display i had to move out my wardrobe.
Ah Choy Testing the stability of the glass sleeves.
let's get my Legion out their boxes, at this point i really couldn't believe i am finally seeing them out of this box.
And here it is! however i only manage to fit one box of my collection, mean i need more sleeves!
All my figures are wrap in a clear plastic, before putting them up on display, to maintain 100% of its original state!
My AT-TE Glass Display:
Got this idea for a local collector, used a 4ft fish aquarium & made a custom cover with pegs to hold the cover in place.
Place this below my 6ft Glass Display, will use the top to place small Star fighters!
