Re: Photos of Your Collection/Displays
Thanks man - yeah Im wanting to run some LED lighting on the new shelves. The plan is to custom build them to primarily fit the vehicles and shelving for the smaller stuff above them.thehiflyer wrote:Snibo1 wrote:You got some cool toys in your sand pit!!! With the shelving (when you do it) you may want to add some LED Lights, sort of "set the mood" and highlight certain toys etc. I am doing the same thing at my house - all my gear is still in packing crates and I need to extend the Man Cave (this year). Will be interested in your progerss and redesign....in other words "Steal your Ideas!!"
I don't know if you are aware of the website tomtop, that is who I buy all my led light strip from for a fraction of the price of everyone else in NZ.
You can also get three colour ones as well with a remote for about $25.00USD plus postage.
I have found this website really good for nick nack type toys and fun stuff like solar powered cockroaches etc etc

Cool stuff Hads. If you've got a collection of things you love, you might as well immerse yourself in it.

Re: Photos of Your Collection/Displays
Just will like to add my stash in here as well.
They have been sitting in brown boxes as I am still renting.
Most of these are mint in box and have never been opened.
Eventually I hope to open a Star Wars Theme Cafe and have this all out for display.

Peace is a lie, there is only passion.
Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength, I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken.
The Force shall free me.
