80s-themed collection

My home office.

Still very much a work in progress, as I'm waiting to add more figures to the existing lines, especially the SOCs (Voltron and God Mars reissue). Also haven't had time to mess with the VF-1J.

I'm confining my collection to these three shelves, so it means a lot of winnowing down and hard focus on things I really want. In a way, I'm glad that it's preventing me from going into full-blown hoarding mode. But I wouldn't mind a bit more display space too.

Real Ghostbusters--as toys, they're a mixed bag. Mediocre paint QC and the joints have some odd tolerances (some are overly tight). Not crazy about the realistic body types (reuse of the movie Ghostbusters figs). That said, this is probably the closest we'll get to modern RGB toys, and I've great nostalgia for the franchise, so I had to get them. There's an action figure store near where I live, so I'm able to go in and pick to avoid ones with obviously sloppy QC.

If you're a fan of the RGB franchise and toys, they're worth a purchase. Otherwise, they're not essential.

The DC characters are mostly DC Direct with a smattering of DCUC. I prioritized sculpting over articulation, as I only display my toys. I actually had to do quite a bit of research putting together the DC collection. Some of the characters have had so many different figures in different lines, and the quality of the sculpts range from great to ugh. It was challenging, for example, to find a 6-/7-inch comic-styled classic Wonder Woman that wasn't totally fugly. I attached some close-ups. If you need any figure ID'ed, just let me know and I'll do my best to remember.
