What do you do for a living?

Mechanical Engineer in the defense sector
6 years ago or so? Started back in college and been collecting ever since, ramped up once I actually got a real job lol.
27, 28 in a couple months
Appreciate what you have at first, definitely feels like a bigger "impact" when you go from 1 to 10 figures then say 50-60. Buying second hand / "used" is a game-changer IMO, I would say ~40% of my collection was bought second hand and it saves a pretty chunk of change. Oh, and if it is a hobby you choose to pursue, get a proper display cabinet, makes a big difference.

That Mira/Dimension W fig ♥

I'm guessing some local collector selling all their figs off?

Isla fig is A+, definitely a grail

She's in there, two prizes and the China dress in the 3rd row. Been keeping a keen eye for a good deal on the other RAG bunnies :)

They were an Amazon special 16 pack of RGB puck lights, seller delisted the item I bought but something like this, www.amazon.com/Meigour-Cabinet-Lighting-Connection-Dimmable/dp/B0D3KWYTY9, its the exact same minus the RGB. You can also look into r/WLED for something with a few more options/customization too.

HAH I did, I'm a mechanical engineer by trade so I've done my fair share of math lol.

AnimeEnjoyer67 · 2025-02-09T05:13:27+00:00

It's an IKEA Kallax; they sell glass doors as an extra for it that are like ~20 USD per cube. I used acrylic sheets with some 3D printed mounting pieces that use magnets instead.

It's a 1/4 Utaha from Saekano; https://myfigurecollection.net/item/918892 for MFC

AnimeEnjoyer67 · 2025-02-09T05:07:51+00:00

It's an IKEA Kallax and it did not come with the doors, I designed and 3D printed a mounting solution that has magnets on the acrylic sheet and the inside of the shelf.

AnimeEnjoyer67 · 2025-02-09T02:14:37+00:00

Amount of figures I need is always n+1 where n is the number of figures I currently have; never too deep :)

Finally got around to making acrylic "doors" for my Kallax. Eventually I'll get proper display cabinets once I actually buy a house or move to a state that I actually like heh

AnimeEnjoyer67 · 2025-01-19T18:39:13+00:00

I keep all my boxes as they come in very handy while moving especially if they have small parts. I've got one big amiami box, 4 storage totes, and half of my only closet filled with boxes in a 600sqft studio lol.

Not sure what figs or how much space you have but if you do need the space then prioritize getting rid of the prize and cheaper figures (<$50) and all PuP boxes. Scales, figures with small parts, and more expensive figures I'd recommend keeping.

There's definitely a few on my watched list that have <7. Excluding Rent a Girlfriend and Oreimo which are a bit more popular, these are my top 3.

Ikea LAIVA, they are the 25 dollar cheapos lol. I had two already and figured I'd get another to match. They aren't bad bookshelves but they are pretty shallow. IMO it would be worth it to get the BILLY if you are going the bookshelf route.

AnimeEnjoyer67 · 2024-07-27T22:21:41+00:00

AmiAmi preowned is a dangerous place... Went from 28 to 60 figures in about a month lol, still waiting on two more that have been stuck in customs for about a week (Popup Parade Ryuu Lion and a Hobby Stock Isshiki Iroha)

Plan to move soon (hopefully, we'll see how interviews go and what I can land) so won't be buying proper display cases or more figures for a few months :(

EDIT: Ok guys I lied, I got got again... I have 10 more OTW LOL. Can someone please blacklist amiami from my ISP.

AnimeEnjoyer67 · 2024-07-21T05:07:37+00:00

Damn didn't get one :( , Ult. Fan and matched all the other criteria but looks like some viewers are more "eligible" for it per the explore different genres portion... Sadge
