    I am not a huge GI Joe guy by any means, but I had bits and bobs and this is just amazing. This makes me want to grab some "guys" and head out to the woods for some adventures.

      WOW!! Lots of cool stuff there.
      Toys and comics. My house isn't big enough. It's an addiction.

          Wowzers! That is a ton of stuff.
          You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

              That's impressive. But there's a lot of 90's junk in there. Probably only about 1/3 of the stuff there I'd actually would want to collect.

                I'd sure that place insured to the max. Plus would want to regulate the temp in the place, too. My biggest peeve would be all the dust and cobwebs that would get over everything.

                  In my 20 years of being a 'serious' toy collector, I've learned that I can't every have everything I want. There are times when I go on toy buying sprees that after I brought in a haul, I start to feel empty inside. The thrill lasts for a couples days, then it diminishes.

                    I like his storage system of using a shoe-rack for 12" dolls.

                              I like both collection.
                              The first one is a bit "wild", going left and right, but you got to give him points for dedication. This guy is as crazy as I am. The soundtrack should have been Queen's I want it all!!

                              The second one is more high-end, some beautiful quality pieces and all in supermint condition, but it feels a bit sterile. I miss some loose pieces and displays that give me the "action figure" kind of feeling. But again, fantastic to see it all in such condition.
