    Wow, that's quite a collection you got there :)
    I'm starting to run out of space too so I will probably need to sell some of mine >.<

        I know! It pains me to even think about it, but unfortunately I don't have a place of my own yet and I'm still living with my parents :/

          Don't sell any of them! They're not a simple toy that you'll tossed around once you had enough with them. Figures have hearts as well.

          My room is just an a size of a comfort room. I do have lots of Gundam and some other toy/figures.
          They don't fit anymore, but I'll take them all with me once I have my own place

          Beauty of a figure/toy can be seen not only on the fig, but as well as the box stacking up high and arranged properly like a department store XDDD

            YEAH! i agree with shou-san. DON'T THROW EM!!
            you don't have space, then just keep your figures until you'll have a room of your own. they're not only made for displaying or even for buying them then selling them again. they're your collections. COLLECTions. if you sell one--even one little piece of plastic from your figure, it means your not collecting anymore D:

    welcome to my world, Figure collecting is a very slippery slope.

    Rotate stock. I try to rotate figures around for display or storage. Rarely do I have a figure out for display more than three months (unless it's a favorite, then they'll be out for a year).

    Just learned the hard way not to have a super detailed figure out too long (BRS original) She took over an hour to dust off and I dust these girls weekly.

    I'm running out of room as well. I won't sell anything, but I'll have to slow down on new stuff. I could get a lot more in I guess but I don't like to jam my displays full of figures.

    This is a very happy problem to have. it means you've found a lot of good art figures.

    Does your neighbourhood have any storage spaces for rent? Maybe a friend or relative has spare closet space and can tolerate the presence of figures at least?

    Prioritise and put the less attractive/rare ones in a carefully lined and silica-gelled box, then put them in storage.

    yes, it's quite a headache when someone nag at you, complaining too much figure.
    The most space consuming are the box.

    I've had the same space problem for awhile. Here's how I've tackled it:

    (a) I re-arrange my figures' position to open up more space. For instance, your Griffon's Etna base is taking too much space (especially when you tilt it at a display angle) and Etna doesn't really need that base.

    (b) Since display space is limited, I move less attractive figures out to make space for more attractive ones.

    (c) I've been more selective when buying new figures, especially those that take up alot of display space.

    (d) As a last resort, I re-arrange my room to make space for new display cabinets.

    Not all of them needs to be displayed anyway.
    I mean, just returned the other on their original box, and then put them on a corner. (you're not disregarding them)
    and just a hint,

    dont let other figures mix with other

    too crowded looks messy and will have a "cheap" feel.
    mine room looks perfectly like a normal room (if you don't open any shelf doors that is)
    and I just recently ran out of room, so I just bought two more bookshelves (with doors)
    and should last me for at least half a year.

    I see plenty of space up here. Put any samurai-themed figures you have here - it'll give you more space and match with the katana.

    Easy. Get some sort of mini arch type stands and make a stepped typed display inside your existing case. This will make use of more space inside the case and reduce the cluter a fair amount so the front row stay as they are then a middle row can be a fe inches higher and the back row cand be double the middle row's hight. Hope that makes sense.

    You don't have a place of your own yet but that does not mean you cannot invest in your personal items.
    Go and buy a new shelf dood.
    Your parents will surely understand since it is something that will be useful in the future unlike if you purchase game titles and just leave them in the floor without cases or anything.

      Detolfie? Ja mam taką obsesję że nie chce żeby ktokolwiek je dotykał. Tak więc jak będzie kasa kupię sobie szklaną witrynkę i postawię na środku pokoju :D
