    I've been working on moving some stuff around on my shelves. I'm hoping in the Fall that I'll pick up some new bookcases so I can finally get everything out and on display. But until then - here are a few updated photos, my full updated images are up on my Facebook page.

    @PadmeLeiaJaina What exactly is that Luke with what looks like fire coming from his saber on your Death Star 2 shelf? Looks really good. Well your whole collection amazes me but that caught my eye in particular.

    He's a Hasbro Unleashed 7" figure. They came out early 2000's. Click HERE to peruse the line. I have more of those in storage. Really irritates me that they're in storage. LOL.

    Updated my room again - some updates, I had picked up a 6 cubby wall shelf at Goodwill and took it and put it on my table (it's a big heavy particle board thing, no way I'm trying to put that on a wall) - now the back of my desk looks a lot more organized AND I had room for some small displays and was able to get some breakables out of the way.

    A few other shelves where I added some items

    Got some puzzle boxes that were Clone Wars used them for levels in my display - I like how it looks in there now, not as crowded.

    Also my Leia shelf isn't as crowded after moving the little stuff over to the cubby shelf

    @PadmeLeiaJaina Absolutely STELLAR collection. As you said, 41 years in the making and LOTS of money, so I can understand the time it's taken to get there, haha, but I will say, with all honor to you, THAT is a collection to strive for! Amazing. The pictures are candy to my eye!

    You're officially my Star Wars hero hahah

    Aww thank you. Believe it or not I have a LOT more stuff that's not on display. I have stuff in storage and stuff that's hidden in a closet and in boxes. All of my ships are in storage. But I'm happy w/ what I've got out. I just could use more shelves so everything isn't so crammed.

    One thing I particularly like is the organazation of your collection. I tried to display my sw ships so I understand why they're in storage

    I never had ships when I was a kid, I got a few vintage ships and newer 90's ones when they first came out. I tend to prefer to focus on characters rather than ships, but I would like to have mine on display. I just recently got that BB-8 playset and really like how it looks w/ the figures displayed. It's hard to split focus for display purposes though.

    Yeah I understand the bb-8 playset is hard to fit anywhere.

    Well I got mine to fit, I just don't have room for other stuff like ships. Goal for this fall is to get myself 3-4 new bookcases as a start so I can start displaying more of my items that aren't on display currently and then hopefully have room for my stuff that's in storage. Hopefully I can get my stuff out - I live in AZ, it's still 100 degrees here I can't get to my storage unit until winter.

    I've got a few ships - mostly Slave I. I have a large version in Jango's colors on display that came out at AOTC time. I have a boxed one in Boba's colors. I have a few small versions on stands and I have an X-Wing that I found in a charity shop. I tend to go for characters.

    I know my collection may not be near as awesome as yours. But I realized it isn't what all you don't have it is what you have and that it makes you happy and thats just what my collection does.:)

    Everyone's collection is awesome, size matters not! I'm getting to a point right now where I desperately need to stop buying 'stuff' and work on getting myself more bookcases so I can spread things out and have room to grow for my collection. It's kind of bursting at the seams.
