Hey, guys! I was just laying around, and figured, hey, since it's a sunny day and the time of year where I stop buying figures before my birthday/Christmas is upon me, I may as well dust off my main shelf and give my bros and bro-ettes on ToyArk a little tour! I do have other shelves which I will add to this post over time, but for now, let's get started!
First off, Toa Metru, and the labels I put on my shelf to indicate what I collect...I'm a bit of a dork like that. Now for my main Marvel Universe display. Just a simple battle of good vs evil, though I'm proud of that Sandman effect since it means that I can avoid touching that figure for long periods of time. Now, onto my next shelf down, the overflow shelf. It has my MU/Star Wars display(The Marvel side is kinda like a bar. Has all types in there), my Doctor Who 3.75 display, and my DC Multiverse 3.75 display. Now, since I'm tired of writing descriptions, my Bionicle 2015 Toa(still missing Lewa and Onua), and my Bionicle Kroita Nui mocs(all are original characters, but most don't have names since names are hard). So yeah, there it is. Apologies for the black bars, it's a thing for Google+.

Nice stuff, dude! It's coming along nicely. It's also nice to see some LEGO/Bionicle love on here. I'm loving the Star Wars stuff as well.
I love the pose Kang is in. On a side note, I really think you should invest in flight stands. They would really amplify the quality of your Marvel setup. I'm a fan of the homemade look of all your customs. They may not be on the same level as all of the ridiculously good stuff the people on here make, but the hard work and passion put into it shows. It's a great example of what customizing/collecting is all about. Overall, you've got a really good thing going here. Keep on collecting, MUFan!

I've actually considered buying flight stands before, as they would probably help in stop motion as well(my rigs so far have been effective, but primitive). Yeah, if you only make them for yourself, as long as your customs can satisfy you, I don't see why they should be made overly professional looking. After all, they help make a shelf look more distinctly yours. That's not to say that some customs won't be touched up in the future, but the point still stands.

Thanks! Yeah, Bionicle is pretty much the only non-3.75 line that I can proudly collect anymore. Glad you're liking the Star Wars despite it not being a major part of the collection yet.

They're a little bit pricey for stands and might cost you $10-$15 on the right website but I think it's a better investment in the long run. Especially since you make stop motions, which by the way, you should share with us here!

No problem, dude! In regards to the Star Wars stuff, If you ever get the chance, you should consider replacing that Dooku and Anakin. There are far superior versions of them that I don't believe are very pricey.

And yeah, I will share stop motions in the relative thread once I have some to show, it's just that I've had a bit of a content drought the past few years due to changing form and having to adjust to them. I've got a good system going, though, and once I finish Doctor Who/Marvel(which is going on a year now in terms of production), I should be able to more regularly do it.

I'm not sure if I want to really replace them, though, since they're some of my childhood toys(along with that Darth Vader and Yoda). Sentimental value and all that.

And good luck with the stop motion projects!
