Ewan's Collection - South Africa
As most of you are aware - it is not the easiest task to collect tmnt figures etc outside of the states. But, with some determination one can get things done. I am very proud to show you the results of my hard work. The collection is not staggering by any means. I have the first 3 complete series and then all the other figures that I really took a liking to. The display case had no downlights and had wooden shelves. I customised it to suite the collection for displaying purposes. Then I also had the perspex risers custom made and added the action figure stands in the end just to eliminate having to fix the figures on the shelves with glue/tape.
This display looks awesome in my living room and does not overwhelm my living quarters - and for me personally that is the best way to display the things I have interest in. Thanks for looking and enjoy! http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/8641/rakc.jpg http://img687.imageshack.us/img687/4562/shelf1a.jpg http://img849.imageshack.us/img849/801/shelf1b.jpg http://img713.imageshack.us/img713/4800/shelf1c.jpg http://img40.imageshack.us/img40/5461/shelf1d.jpg http://img33.imageshack.us/img33/7096/shelf1e.jpg http://img820.imageshack.us/img820/640/shelf2a.jpg http://img716.imageshack.us/img716/6027/shelf2b.jpg http://img33.imageshack.us/img33/1863/shelf2c.jpg http://img706.imageshack.us/img706/6753/shelf2d.jpg |

Swan, that's a fine collection by any means. You have a quality selection of figures and your display looks great!
|
very nice display! love the poses you have em in!
|
Ok I give up. How do you get the images in your post without attaching them like I did? I want to upload them again, but without having to make them smaller so that they adhere to the attachment file size restrictions. Any help will be greatly appreciated!!!

|
Nice and clean, not to crowded. You did an excellent job!:D

Any vehicles or playsets?

Thank you all for the kind words! My hobby is generally frowned upon by the people here, since its not such a common past time for a 26 year old I guess. I always get excited when people come to visit and see their reaction to the display - but most of the times they just say: "wow you have a lot of toys!?" followed by a weird expression
TMNT canadian - I thought long and hard about adding some vehicles, but in the end decided against it. I love the details and colours of the figures - hence me collecting them. The vehicles not so much. Mind you the ones we do find here are rediculously priced and getting them from the states is a nightmare shipping wise.....so I guess that also plays a role in me not collecting them;) |

Your display case is amazing. Great job on an awesome set up!

What kind of bases are those. They make everything look so clean and organized.

Here is the link for the action figure stands I used: http://www.amazon.com/Action-Figure-.../dp/B002RDJM7K I like them, only thing is the pegs are a bit too small for the holes in the figures feet. I just filled the holes with some sticky putty and then it all fitted well. The risers I got made at a perspex factory - they are quite cheap, I'm sure you have a similar place in your area |
love the display cases, i have to get some for my loose figures one day, great collection!
