I do the same thing! Unless they say your name, might as well rework the display.

I’m the same. I have a rough sketch of my future collectible room..for a house I don’t own at the moment lol.
When house shopping I draw up the spare bedrooms in AutoCAD for this exact purpose

SS Grievous owners.
Luckily my Grievous has held up well while I have been waiting for HTs. Got it for cheap, it did it's job. Very excited to replace it.

I have the first Sideshow version, but will be getting this one. I wonder if SS knew this was on HT's slate and decided to do their rerelease.

We built a new house 8 years ago and it took nearly a year. While my collection was in storage I iterated on the basement floorplan over and over and over again. So many variations until I landed on one that felt perfect, right down to where the Toys R Us six foot Falcon and Life Size Han in Carb would hang. I've added Detolfs since then but the floorplan played out exactly as designed when I finished the basement. I loved Visio!When house shopping I draw up the spare bedrooms in AutoCAD for this exact purpose
"Workout Room" just seems like more space for collectibles to me...We built a new house 8 years ago and it took nearly a year.

I'm a residential architect and when we're designing other ppl's massive homes, I can't help to think about how/where I would put my collection if it were my home

And now I’ll begin doing this as well. Thanks lol.
I even have places and plans for collectibles I don’t have or don’t exist (PF ROTS Kenobi).
Thank god for imaginary space.

Only annoying thing is while you're waiting to have the room to display your figures, they make new updated versions while your originals are still boxed up in storage

Looks really good, hope they dial back the deco a bit. The dotty-speckle stuff is pretty over the top. The stand is annoyingly bad (guess we should be thankful it's not the footprint one). While the roll-around eyes are fun, I don't EVER remember seeing Grievous with whites in his eyes. Hope they rethink that.
I'm not shocked this one's happening, been kind of building up to it for a while. Wish HT would drop a magna guard too, not THAT would rock as a display!

He’s definitely got white (sclera) in his eyes outside of the iris, but not as much showing as HT has
Are the eye sockets on the HT the wrong shape? The bottom corners look more rounded
The overall shape doesn’t look like a Dorito.
Those are my general grievances

Oh no, do not feed their greed!
Space, an ever lasting pain, together with great companies feeding our needs both combined create... A complexity...
Rotation sounds good in theory, but I am not one who likes to box and unbox these things frequently. I do like your take on it, warehousing until better times. One fear I have with that though is the potential we'll get much superior figures along the way, killing that special joy it brings. Part and parcel.
Thanks. At least you have a concrete and tangible solution on the way, mine is still miles and miles away in lolo-land! One day...
Haha yes! This must be the pinnacle of madness, doing the same time over and over (buying figures) with no space to place them aside from a warehouse. Oh wait, we are on the Collector Freaks, aren't we..?
Haha, you will wish you never stated that! One man's treasure is another one's... Hell?Please A: write me into your will and B: enjoy some very dangerous thrills... pleeeeeeeeeease....
Just kidding, I don't have the space to inherit your collection and I much prefer you alive and posting
But still put me in your will. For the giggles.
