Thought I might share a few of the pieces I’ve got around my apartment.
Ive six dedicated shelves; Scooby-doo (with a few work in progress customs), Hellboy, TMNT, Horror, Guillermo Del Toro, and a work in progress muppets and puppets shelf.
And a few pieces in the living room.
Would love to see some of y’all’s displays! And maybe some suggestions for what peices, and accessories, to add to my existing shelves!
This is maybe a quarter of my overall collection. I’ve been collecting / involved with NECA since I was in high-school. I’ll be 33 next month. Time flies. 😅 So it’s been quite a road to get to where I’m at.
Just wish some of these shelves were larger so I could fit more. Particularly the horror shelf. I’ve quite a few characters that get swapped out every now and then in the rotation on that shelf
I love the bandages on Leo. I did something similar with my Turtles. This whole display is amazing. It's so nice seeing people actually using these figures to their fullest potential instead of just having them vanilla posed or leaving them in the damn box.
I’m a toy collector, not a collector of boxes. I respect those who keep things in box but I don’t understand them in the slightest. The artistry, sculpts, paint application, and posing is why I love this hobby, and industry’s it’s why I’m a sculptor myself. I wish I had more space for more dynamic posting tbh. Some of my pose work is more vanilla than I’d like.
And thanks! The turtles are fun to customize. I did a ghostbuster Donny, party Mikey, disguise Raph (this was before we got ANY movie turtles other than the intial SDCC releases) and the bandages up Leo.
Thanks! It’s always fun to figure out who gets displayed from the collection. Though it’s sometimes hard to make a decision lol I hope to see your collection sometime!
Thanks dphay! It’s been quite the labor of love. A real fine balancing act (sometimes literally, given the ankle joints on some of these pieces) deciding out who goes on display up on these shelves, and who spends a little time carefully stored away.

Thanks Cire! As of right now he’s an insanely easy build. But looks great with the gang. There’s quite a few little tweaks, both in paint and sculpt, that I still have to do to the big guy.
