    megos in space

    Hello,

    Was wondering if people store or display their megos. Maybe it's a little of both. If you have a decent size collection, are some put away, while others roam freely?

    How much space of your home is dedicated to them?

    Just curious, as my girlfriend is about to move in with me and space is becoming hard to come by.

    Thanks!

    Chris

    In my first apartment, I had a tiny bookshelf dedicated to my figures. I got a bookcase with the next place, then a second bedroom eventually now to a dedicated toy room in my house. It's kind of nuts really.....

        When we bought a four bedroom house last year, my wife agreed to one of the rooms being my office/toyroom. The bulk of my collection is displayed in there, with a few scattered in the family/TV room, plus about a half dozen boxes that are stored away (mostly toys that I currently don't have a huge interest in, but don't want to sell, yet). It works out well, I get my "manroom" and my wife doesn't have to put up with my crap being scattered around the rest of the house (which is currently the location of most of my one and a half year old son's crap).

          I have pretty much all my stuff out on display. It's everywhere really. However, it's getting so crowded that I'm starting to not like the look, so I'm considering boxing some up and rotating displays in an effort to make them cleaner looking.

            Most of my stuff is on display in my TV room and bedroom... But I have been thinking about putting away a few lines.... to get rid of the cluttered look.

                  I had no room for my new modern MOC KISS figures and tons of vintage & modern Star Wars figures, playsets and other Action Figures collection in my living room. I packed them in the back bedroom storage. Few years later on I unpacked my Action Figure collection and put them on the white wood shelves for them in the back bedroom and now I'm starting re-builting Mego P.O.T.A and other Megos collection in my new display glass cabinet with door glass and with engery saver light bulbs (10 watts is safer for them) I had many Megos last May but I had sold all of them and tried to earned more money to pay for tow my new mobile home (long trailer with 2 bedrooms & 2 bathrooms) but it's not enough money to pay for to moving my mobile home in somewhere, Hill Country, Texas. Anyway, I gave up and staying in Dickinson, TX.... because I never have been married yet, I'm still single and no kids. I'll finding a better job soon and I'll be patient. I won't selling off my Megos in the future, now I know BETTER not to sell 'em all. When I get married then I'll moving my mobile home and then builting a new regular house size is for my Megos, other Action Figure collection and other stuff & antiques museum rooms.

                    In our apartment I had 1 bookcase and 2 book shelves to display my Megos (it looked like crap all crowded like that). The rest of my stuff was in boxes in the garage. We bought a house a couple of months ago and one of the rooms will be my toy room. I bought a couple of Detolfs (from Ikea) for my Megos, but the rest is still boxed up, the room needs a lot of work before I can start displaying stuff properly. But at least I have something to look forward to

                          My stuff is all packed away, but it will soon be unpacked after we move. I don't have alot of great stuff, mostly basic easy to find Megos, but I love them just the same and they will be displayed in our new place. I can't wait! Only 7 days to go!

                            Think B.A. Where did you hide the Megos?
