I love that you take stuff out of the packaging. That's how you truly get to enjoy a collection. Here are some pics from my collection: http://treknostalgia.blogspot.com/2009/11/nostalgic-gs-trek-collection.html Great collection. I love that you take stuff out of the packaging.

Sorry it's taken me so long to respond. I can't WAIT to get my entire collection back onto display. Won't happen until we change houses again, though. Not sure when that will happen. Scott Griffin: You noticed the pennants! Most of those date from my high-school or college years. I received the Packers pennant in the early 1970s. I was actually at the 1978 Gator Bowl. I wrote about it here: http://www.visualeditors.com/apple/2007/12/where-were-you-when-coach-woody-hayes-was-fired/ David Putney: Ouch! I stand corrected. I'll fix it in a moment. Tim McCormick and Chris Olds: Thanks for the compliment, but there are folks much, much more knowledgable than I am regarding action figures. In fact, just now -- a week after I posted this -- I sent a link to my Star Trek toy collecting pals at PlayTrek. "L": Look closer. You'll find a Fantastic Four/Sue Storm Barbie on the top shelf and a Spider-Man on my bulletin board, by the Batmobiles. In fact, I have a half-dozen or so Spider-Man figures, a Ben Grimm figure, Captain America and a few more Marvels in storage. But not many. I'm mostly a DC guy. Thanks for the kind comments, folks. Sorry it’s taken me so long to respond.

Over time, my collection space has dwindled from a room, to shelves, to a shelf, and then the garage. I still keep a hearty chunk of toys at work (my office is the coolest place to visiting Cub Scouts)... ...but my home is nearly devoid of geekdom. I salute you and your commitment!
