I went through a Lego phase about 8 or 9 years ago. I still have all my sets, but they're all put away in the attic at this point.
 
Holy crap, awesome collection! Were these pre-made sets, or were they all custom work?
Mostly pre-made sets with a good bit of modification. But there are a handful of completely custom builds too.
 
I assume you guys are single cause there is no way in hell freezing over my wife would let me display my shit like that in the house, and she is pretty damn tollerant of my gaming obsessions lmao. She even games herself sometimes and I know for a fact it would still cause an arguement....

It's ok to have a nerd space somewhere in the house, like a gaming/hobby room, mancave, etc.

You actually need to tell your wife that things you like can be displayed too. My Lego titanic is on our Buffet in the dining room. As well as other various lego throughout the house and on bookshelves. People love it.

I joked before but my partner's into collecting figures too, she has as many as I do. We're working together to create our own nerd cave filled with figures, games, all that type of stuff.

If you'd wanna start small to see if your wife would be into collecting stuff, you could see if there's a "Nendoroid" for a series she likes. They're usually small, inexpensive, and moderately detailed.
 
I haven't got many, and they're all in storage at the moment, but I have chisato and takina from Lycoris Recoil, kesoku band from bocchi the rock, and a few from dragon maid.
 
All the dusting that would need to be done on that Lego is making feel sick as every time I would touch it to clean, something would fall off.

its more about clutter than anything. Shes pretty OCD about things being tidy!
 
I've been collecting DBZ stuff myself, just not sure what to put them on. Glass shelves look nice but im not really into glass since im afraid it might shatter.

rubik's dude rubik's dude where did you get those FFXi figurines?

This is ironic since my wife has all kinds of figurines and if she had it her way they'd be all over the house instead of relegated to a couple of shelves I allow lol

Your wife sounds awesome.

I actually feel sorry for these men with wives who are like "My wife wouldn't let me do this..." sounds like a shitty way to live where you're not allowed express what you live in your own house.

I was hesitant about glass shelves too, after hearing stories about them shattering due to over tightening/temp changes. I've had these ones for a few years though and they're sturdy as hell.

Thick tempered glass, each shelf supports 30lbs, good price for the size too: https://www.amazon.com/4-shelf-Hexagon-Shaped-Curio-Cabinet/dp/B00Y4GGV22

Japanese flea markets and auction sites using a proxy service mostly. Buyee's a pretty good service for that kinda stuff.
 
This shelf is fire but feels like Shenron granted half a wish

Where the hell are the rest of the Super Saiyans? Goku's still riding the cloud like it's daycare while Vegeta is over here carrying the whole power level on his blonde back
Lol it's 99% an og Dragon Ball shelf since I love the og series, but Vegeta's my girlfriend's favorite, and that was a rare version of him they did a re-run of. So we got him crossing the timelines a bit.
 
I have quite a few old school anime nerd items from when I collected back in the 90s and 2000s. Wall Scrolls, vhs tapes (the DBZ ones make pictures with the side art so gotta get 'em all!), early DVD releases, toys. Unfortunately I just don't have the space so most of it's in storage these days. I think the only thing I have sitting out is a figma of Nero and Jeanne Alter from Fate.

I'm one of those weird NIB types. This is just one of the walls of bullshit. Most everything else is in bins still as I don't have shelving up. Someday.
Sick display! I keep a few things NIB too, like the Turboman replica that got made by Funko a few years back.
We already have a Warhammer thread…

I'd love to get into Warhammer, I really like the lore. I'm terrible at painting though. Tried fixing a few figures that had paint damage and it was so bad lol.

I'm a bad painter too but the more you do, the better you get. Having good quality paint and brushes is key! You can also learn some great tricks from folks. My local store taught me to never paint from the pot which made a difference immediately. You can also get a free mini every month from the store to try new ideas out risk free. It's a patience thing from my experience.

Yeah that's a good point. I got the paint and brushes to fix my figures from my local Warhammer shop. They were extremely helpful in finding the right ones. I'll definitely have to give it another go.
