As collectors, we all love to display our figures/toys, but we also have limited space to work with. As a result, many of my lower priority toys get stored away in rubbermaid containers. My question is, what collections get what percentage of your available display space?
I have 28 display shelves devoted to toys, as well as ten storage containers. Most of the display space had been previously devoted to Transformers. After selling half of my collection on ebay and reorganizing the rest, my collection now breaks down as follows:
Transformers (and other robot toys like Chogokin and Macross) - 9 shelves (roughly 1/3rd of the display area).
Star Wars vehicles - 6 shelves (roughly 1/4th of the display area)
Superheroes (Super Powers, Secret Wars, DC Superheroes, and JLU) - 5 shelves (roughly 1/5th of the display area)
Bionic Six - 4 shelves (roughly 1/6th of the display area)
Starcom - 2 shelves
Star Trek: TNG - 1 shelf
Masters of the Universe castles - 1 shelf
TMNT, Thundercats, and other assorted figures - 1shelf
Mego Superheroes - less than half a shelf
And, in case you were wondering, the rubbermaid containers store: Justice League Unlimited figures (2 containers) G.I. Joe (one container) Marvel Superheroes (2 containers) Star Wars figures (1 container) Masters of the Universe / Blackstar (2 containers) Random weapons/accessories (1 container)
So how about your collection?

i have a 10ft long, six high shelf i have packed with loose figures and i only leave out the moc stuff that doesn't fit in rubbermaid containers. and my shelve has been full for quite some time so as i get figures i pick what i like the most or whatever i'm currently on the hunt for. and that is what i display. i am a horder so if it comes down to getting rid of stuff (fridge, couch, dresser, etc) to make room for toys then i guess i'll be sleeping in my hallway!!!!!
