Gunbuster Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Hi Everyone, I have a quick question to all the guys with the super large collections, what do you guys do with the empty boxes? Do you guys store them or throw them away? If you guys store them, how do you manage the space? They take up so much space! (and I would rather use that space to display my other toys. I know you can collapse the boxes, but what do you do with the inserts? Can you guys give me a few pointers? Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wmkjr Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 (edited) Stack the inserts if they're similar. I fit about 8 VF-1 inserts in the space of 2. If you don't mind the box condition, I folded mines flat then stacked them together according to size. Dunno about the Bandai's DX.

Tking22 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 I've had these guys for about two weeks, forgot to post pics. I gotta say, the First Order Troopers are the nicest, most well made white armor trooper figures that Figuarts have put out, they are what I expected the OG Stormtrooper and Clone Troopers to be like. That said, I still love them all, Clones and the kind of meh Stormtroopers too, they all look great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArchieNov Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 還記得當時的感動!【Metal Gear Solid】REX 3A half size http://gundamatefsf.blogspot.hk/2015/12/metal-gear-solidrex-3a-half-size.html The banner! Tactical Espionage Action- Metal Gear Solid! I just got this myself today. The original full size release from 3A was considered 1/48 scale, meaning that this half-size version should probably be 1/96. However, the video review from CollectionDX showed that the full-size one was much larger than a 1/48 based on the size of the pilot figures. So I took a look at the cockpit section of the half-size and noticed that it has the right proportions to fit in a pilot from the 1/60 DX Valkyries. Therefore, I think this half-size Rex is actually more of a 1/60 scale and may fit in better with a 1/60 scale collection rather than a 1/100. Though if it really is 1/60, the Rex is much smaller than I imagined it to be especially when compared to Macross valkyries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

funkymonkeyjavajunky Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 (edited) Hi Everyone, I have a quick question to all the guys with the super large collections, what do you guys do with the empty boxes? Do you guys store them or throw them away? If you guys store them, how do you manage the space? They take up so much space! (and I would rather use that space to display my other toys. I know you can collapse the boxes, but what do you do with the inserts? Can you guys give me a few pointers? Thanks in advance! Throw them away?? Not when I'm spending $200-300 a toy. But to answer your question...I stack my boxes (with inserts) tetris style in my closet. Bandai and Arcadia have produced more efficient-sized, smaller boxes, when compared to some of the beasts that Yamato produced. I'm up to 31 valks, a modest collection.

Gunbuster Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Thanks wmkjr and funkymonkeyjavajunky for your responses. I'm blown away you are able to pack in 31 boxes in a closet! My place is so small, even doing wmkjr's great tip will only help a little. I feel a little bad for throwing away these boxes @_@;; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you can collapse the boxes, but what do you do with the inserts? Can you guys give me a few pointers? Thanks in advance! I eventually outgrew the closets in my apartment, so I got a storage unit for all my boxes and multiples valks, along with various household items. yeah i have one boxed up it was crazy money Ooohhh... You have the Kaneda figure too? oh cool there is a light up version too! But I'd just be happy with the one you have.. But from memory these are also becoming expensive! I am happy with this one, but it would be nice to have the Medicom version. hey guys, don't mind me, i'm just testing out a new uploader as photobucket is buggy: *snip* Wow, piles of Macross goodness! Oh and looks like the new uploader works. Between Kaneda's Bike, David's stash. a VF-0S and Folder Booster. There's just too much good stuff here!!! On sensory overload on all of the goodies!
