Turtle Storage Question....
 

I have a question that has been with me for some time now. Where is the best place to store action figures both MOC and not? I have some in my garage where it get hot and cold, I have some in my basement with humidity. I have some in my attic where it gets hot and cold, and then some in my closet in my room. I'm sure my closet is the best place but I couldn't possibly fit everything into my room so I have to store them somewhere else. Does anyone have any ideas on proper action figure storage both MOC and not? Thanks.

Well, you seem to already know the answer. So the real question is which environment will you be able to alter the easiest. My suggestion would be to use the basement and simply purchase a dehumidifier. One word of warning, in my experience, you should assume any basement will leak and or flood sooner or later, so you should be prepared for that possibility.

Well, i just keep my MOC figs. and my displayed figs. in my room, so i can Show OFF when my friends reach my home hehe. I think your room is the very best place, if you got space enough. But it seems like you have a lot, So i don't know if they would fit. Well just a suggestion :)

Agreeing with Leosgal. A constant tempurature and out of the light. Stay away from the light! :lol: I keep my in sterlite see throught tubs padded with plastic bags on the bottoms and sides. This way I can see what is in them, stack them etc. Who has room to display anymore?

I put all my MOC figures on my wall, using tacks to hold them up. It really looks nice to have them all up there for display. My loose figures I have on random shelves in my room, also looking nice :)

I have a question.. Should I collect the mutatin' figures loose or MOC. If they werent so expensive I'd do both, but how do you guys have them?

i'd do both no matter how expensive they are. But actually HOW expensive are they in USA????

I left the Mutations on the card and only bough one at a heafty $9.97 a pop at Walmart.

HAHA, 9,97 are ya kiddin' me. I pay even more for a regular fig. from the first wave. $14.

(I know i have mentioned this in a lot of topics and maybe complained a bit, but i think you need to know how the TMNT world is outside USA :) and believe me. It's NOT good :x )

:-? I know this probobly sunds dumb but what is MOC :-? :-?

Not dumb at all. Toymania has several in depth guides. (See the link below)

However, the short answer is:
MOC = Mint On Card (figure is in mint condition on a card)
MOMC= Mint on Mint Card (figure and card are in mint condition)

i store all my MOC figures on a pegboard drilled to my wall with leonardo painted on it...
