i wanted to know because i display all my figures on my shelf aobve my tv and every time i try to move something/add something everything always hits my tv then hits the floor. this happened 2ce today, this morning my giant leo fell and knocked alot of figures off, and then i was putting it bak up and i hit 1 of my other figures on accident and alot more fell down :| anybody make custom shelves for there turtles? maybe with pegs on em?

i think im not gonna put em back up till i figure out somewhere else i can put em cause soon im sure they will brake along with theyre weapons or somethin else bad...

I made shelves and the ones taht have a tendency of falling I keep near the bottom. The more sturdy ones I keep on the top shelves. I had teh same problem with my Giant Raphael falling. Just work with his legs a little and he will stand firm.

I don't display my Turtles. I keep 'em in a box. They're pretty sturdy. Actually, I've got Krang and the new Michelangelo on my speakers for my stereo :D But other than that I display my Transformers 'cause I don't have a lot of room (in fact, I only have one shelf :( )

I have all my figures in baggies in a box, but I have no space in my room. Once we buy a house I want to build a shelf that stretches all across just under my ceiling, and stand them on there. I have 1 on display on my speaker, and he is Mondo Gecko. he is sturdy since he has a tail :P I also have my MOC Triceraton (Imma Triceraton mark :D ) Sitting on the center of my cd unit thing :P And once I get this loose triceraton I won on ebay, hes going to take mondo geckos place, and i'm gonna try to find one more triceraton, and hes going on the other speaker :) So itll be loose on one speaker, MOC on the middle unit, and loose on the other speaker :D

being as we live in an apartment, we arent aloud to build shelves into the walls or whatever, so i cant put them on that. My dresser has a lamp, a ps2, a nintendo 64 (ontop the ps2) and a 21" tv on it, and there is hockey stuff on my tv so the whole dresser is filled, my cd player and 2 speakers take up the whole bookshelf that they are on so theres no room on there, and my desk is piled full of stuff i need to put away after moving my room around :P But thank god we can probably afford a house in the summer, ill have so much room to display them :) I want to build shelves as i said before, or if I luck out i can get a shelf that is already built all around like i had where i used to live :)

Yea i agree with the feet, I wouldnt mind if all the figures have all flat feet, or tails are ok too cuz they can lean on it, but the figures like '88 don with the bent foot piss me off lol :P Oh well...

I've got tons of figures stored elsewhere, but I have a room with a bunch of shelves with interconnected sewer playsets all over for some of the loose ones to stay. Only one of each character, of course. Obsessive me even decorated and customized 'em their own rooms and stuff. :dead:

Well, seeing as I only have the 4 old turtles and Splinter, I can just display them on my shelf that hold my Stereo :p Its just so hard to find all the old TMNT stuff in Oz :(
