It's very modest, and parts of it are just whatever I could get my hands on in the beginning. Nowadays I almost exclusively buy omnibuses to save on space and money.

It'll be really hard since Tokyo Pop is out of business, but you should try to finish Petshop of Horrors. It's one of my favorite mangas.

It's not a very big collection, but I do have (nearly) every "Subscriber's Edition" of Nintendo Power. I missed the last few because I couldn't renew my subscription. It's nearly 5 years worth of magazines, I think. I'll try to get a picture when I can.

Gonna fit as many of these in my display cabinet as I can today. Any of them that were bought new have never been opened.

Can I has picture?

Btw. I'm terribly sorry I still haven't posted my collection pics. I will, sooner or later.

The biggest thing I collect right now is movies. I wouldn't say it is gigantic like some have out there but it is well off to a good start. Especially since I have a DVD tower that holds 105 DVDs (3 separate towers on a rotating pedestal that holds 35 DVDs each) and it is filled up. That isn't even including Box Sets of either tv series or special editions like the LOTR DVD Extended editions (which if you've never seen them they are gorgeous looking boxes. New Line put alot of effort into those.

Then you throw in my Bluray collection which I'm running out of shelf space on my entertainment center which also is filled with a small library of books and video games scattered about the thing.

I'll probably put a picture on here to show what a little monster it is starting to become.

What I really hope for is to have one day a home where I can have a room that is just one big circle of shelves to hold all this stuff, basically a movie library. Not for books, that I'll probably have a smaller shelf since I'm way more picky and selective with what books to buy since most of the ones I like are series that have a large number of volumes to it, whether they are graphic novels or just regular books.

One pic I'll show when it comes maybe will be my Season 3 set of Game of Thrones, because it is an exclusive version from Amazon that I preordered a ways back Thing will be like a stone block with a dragon on it and its wings are expanded like it is giving a threatening pose. Either way it will be both awesome and a bother. Like I said, little to no space left. Now I needs to move stuff to make it fit without damaging the box.

Whoops, didn't realize that the image didn't take. I fixed my previous post.

I want your Morrigan figure...... I'm realizing how many things you have that I want.

That Morrigan was insanely hard for me to find at a decent price, and even then it hurt. It's kinds of ridiculous how much her price skyrocketed.

I'm not used to how complex some of these can be to open, so progress was slow today. I'm hoping to have the cabinet full tomorrow.

I'm also happy that I own a bunch of small figure. I think three cabinets for all my plastic figures should be enough and then I have to find something strong enough to hold my statues. Some of those are crazy big.

That's some impressive shit right there Hex, nice job! I'm also loving the fact that you are actually opening them. It's weird when people keep their stuff in boxes.

My real problem is that my collection is scattered all over the place because whenever I start placing stuff on one shelf/cabinet/box/drawer I always run out of space. Now I have my movies, for example, scattered in like three to five different places. Getting around to taking pictures of all of that is why I'm procrastinating on those pictures :P

That's my problem. I have so many video games that I filled up my first shelf up really fast, and since it's always growing, I'm going to have to either find a way to put together the bookshelf my dad gave me (which is made up of different parts from three-four diffrent bookshelfs) or find another place to put them.

I wouldn't have necessarily this much trouble managing my stuff if it was just videogames. For me it's also books, comics, series box sets and movies. Mostly comics and movies, though. Games are like 1/3 of my collectible stuff :P

That's more or less me too. I have that whole bookshelf filled with video games, but I also have a bunch of books on my head rest that is filled and I have to get rid of a bunch of them. I have no place for my movies, so my mom is holding on to them for me, and THAT is a wholle nother story. We have four whole shelves filled up with movies, and we still have some movies on the floor.

Fools had this cel listed as being from the Mars movie. I know the exact part in the first film this cel came from and I'm thrilled that Blanky is holding the Master's photo.

While I was doing some spring Winter cleaning, I found a box in the back of my closet. It's not a Mario Kart phone, but it is something that I forgot I had.

I have not read any of these in years, and I kinda want to. I'm missing like half of the books and I would like to get a new copy of book #1. I'm thinking of finding the rest of them this year.
