Some people have been asking to see my collection, so here it is.   Let's chat about it!

Impressive, as always. What did you use to hang the figures on the wall? Also, what did you use for the wood boards? I recognize the black shelving, but the wood shelving was essentially what I was trying to do in my room, but the shelves we found were too wide.

Honestly, the figures are hanging on super tiny picture nails.

The shelving I made custom.  I took 4'x8' sheets of maple plywood and ripped them into 8"x8' pieces.  Maple is strong and won't sag.  I then sanded them and veneered the fronts.  Easy peasy!

I need to do more woodwork in the garage, but just don't have the tools right now. I need to do something to organize my room a bit more though. What'd you use to secure them to the walls?

Also, I noticed you don't have any of the LE World of Nintendo 2.5" figures. Any particular reason? I nabbed a Star Mario from Walmart on random whim and didn't realize it was a chase figure until I got through the checkout. Couldn't find any more when I went back.

I need that Star Power Mario!  I have the Gold Bullet Bill (and an extra one).  Willing to trade?

I used simple tracks for the shelving.  Really easy.

I literally picked it up when people were interested in the figures - I have no attachment to it. It was always intended to send to someone else.
Looks like you still need the 8-bit Mario too.

Yep.  I also need the Gray Scale 8-bit Mario from Walgreens.

Mercy, that's beautiful. My favorite pieces are the pinball machine and the DDR Supernova soundtrack.  :)

What? I liked the random pieces you had scattered around the memorabilia too! Though, I question why the Legend of Zelda Test Cartridge is up there with the merchandise.

Wow great stuff Mezmoron! What a great space you got for your collection. Love the decorations and setup. Especially the framed Dragon Warrior posters.

That's pretty awesome! Wish I had the space to display everything in my basement.  Pretty impressive! Keep up the awesome work.

Looks great! Do you have any pictures of how your consoles are set up as I'm trying to sort this out in my own set up.

I love the Daddy & me photo in pic 51. I'm looking at way to include my family in the game room to make it seem less like a man cave.

Donkey Kong looks like he's recovering from a rough night in pic 61.

Thanks for sharing!

Great looking collection!  Of course I love the pin. Played it several times and it's actually a really fun machine.  Also really dig the Dragon Warrior posters. Great idea!
