Your display, the Funko way!

Postby **AngloAnon** » Wed May 27, 2015 9:24 pm

I haven't posted in a while but I've recently been adding to my collection so I thought I'd show it all off:
At work I have my Game of Thrones and Once Upon a Time/Disney Collections:

At home I have my Misc/Signed Funko, Wizard of Oz, Mini Sets, and Marvel Collections:

Wow! If I had a man cave I think I'd have rows of shelves with lights just like that. That looks fantastic!!

Thanks, John!

Honestly, I wish I had a man cave. This is the living room of my apartment that my fiancé and I live in. Let's just say she's "tolerating" it for now... lol

What's getting me by now is my convincing her this is all pretty much her fault. The collection began with her buying me a Khal Drogo Pop as a cute random gift last summer and she should have known I'd love these things at first sight. By that point, she fully realized how OCD I can be in these situations!

I do need a gameplan with showcasing my exclusives ( and the dozens of preorders on the way lol

) which means and a third display case seems inevitable.

FYI, for anyone thinking of these LED lights, they are very powerful and not easy on the eye when adjacent to a TV. I turn them on usually while I'm alone and without the TV on. That said, probably gonna move them into the bedroom(but gotta store the 200+ empty boxes somewhere first ](*,)

).

Rebuilt my pop wall. Needed more space so I had to change it up. Got idea bookshelfs ($3.00 for shelf, 50¢ for each bracket) and built my own risers.

I really liked my old setup, but needed the space. Went from about 200 to about 240. Not that much more space but made more space for my video game consoles and games as well. More space but was some work.

I still need more space #-o

Impressive Ed! I have those same Ikea shelves for my ponies, but they look great filled with Pops!

Postby **Kimchi Pasta** » Fri May 29, 2015 2:03 am

Ed, that's one awesome collection you got! WOW. I hope you got a good gameplan for keeping the dust out of there! Your new setup looks like it would create some more maintenance. Back when mine were exposed to the elements and got dusty I would soak in the time it took to clean them up with a makeup brush. I would go down memory lane which each piece remembering how I acquired them...a lot of the great deals I got and some of the ones I overpaid for ](*,)

It's crazy how I remember nearly every piece and every situation to get them. I feel like most of us passionate collectors can rehash this journey.

I've seen several signatures throughout the forum referencing this awesome quote and it's so true:

I have yet to meet a collector who feels bad about his collection. Collection is also about the story – the story behind how someone found it and purchased it... (Edgar Paulik)

Ed that is fantastic! You are the watcher on the wall!

Love it, Ed and Jonathan!

Haha I hear ya! All of mine are on shelves in the living room as well, the bulk of which is over my desk at the moment. I'll eventually have more shelves in that area, so they will stand out when people come over. I wish I had a back room to keep them all in, but for now that's the ebst I can do. I refuse to put them in the bedroom, mostly because I don't want people to have to go in there to check out my collection, haha.

Just went to the disney store and picked up Donald and Pooh

Where did you get those shelves? I am having a hard time because I am in a one bedroom apartment and I need to figure out how I can display all these or where i can at least keep them lol

Awesome display everyone!!

Postby **Jango_Fresh** » Fri May 29, 2015 9:00 pm

Ed, loving those shelves!

Here is my current Deadpool stuff, missing pop variants and mystery minis. Hikari will be moving once I get proper hikari shelves up.

Love the pools, Eddie. Lot of work I'm sure went into that shelf.

Postby **toro423** » Sat May 30, 2015 11:50 am

Damn Eddie, that deadpool shelf is impressive. Congrats!

Postby **big_pun_209** » Sat May 30, 2015 3:11 pm

Finally got my collection off the dresser. Painted the shelf last week, it was white before. Now to fill it all up!
(Sorry the pic sucks, I'll try to get a better shot.)

I gotta say... this is starting to feel pretty good. Nowhere near "complete" if I'm being nit-picky about it... but I'm happy.

I still want the Unmasked variant Pops, the classic Hikari, the Wobblers, the Minis... and of course the elusive Fredpools; but you can't always get what you want.
Ah well... :makeitrain:

Postby **heartriot** » Sun May 31, 2015 8:26 pm

Here is my new display! I just posted looking for advice on risers, but for now this is working and I'm loving it:

Aaand editing inline attachments is too hard on a mobile, so look at the pictures in reverse order

Um, I'd be worried about that cat. I have to put all of mine either under glass or 5 feet high (he's 18, so he doesn't jump much anymore) cause he LOVED putting Bender, Mom and Leela on the floor before I realized what I needed to do.

Holy guacamole, that's a nice setup!

Does anyone have a preference for floating shelves? Cheap yet sturdy ones that can hold pops out of box, with room behind for the box? I just cleared out my collection room to paint. Now making blueprints for my display.

Postby **mrsdeasgroi** » Mon Jun 01, 2015 6:39 pm

Thanks!

Unfortunately I can't help with the floating shelves as our walls are thin and we cant actually hang shelves :C

Postby **Poncho Pete** » Mon Jun 01, 2015 6:47 pm

Looking good Dea! Very tidy!

Yes, I have some, I got them at IKEA for 15 bucks and they work nicely

I think they work nicely

Postby **icechaichana** » Mon Jun 01, 2015 8:23 pm

Due to limited spaces, I can't take them out of the box.

I know this is a noobie question, but I haven't been on a forum in a few years. What's the best/quickest way to host & post images here?
