| Re-arranged some things and finished my Micro Collection display case. Added a few new shelves. I love the glass case I got at Ikea - it's perfect and fits the entire set of Micros. The top-mounted light is a nice bonus  . Oh, and also applied UV film to the windows - I recommend this for anyone displaying loose items - sunlight is your enemy!

| Top stuff there Stealthboy, some nice additions to the room. Those Ikea glass cabinets are just the job aren't they, i've got a couple of them myself for my loose vintage collection and think they look great. Well done mate, very nice indeed. |

| Finally finished the glass front to my wall-mounted custom cabinet. Hinges at the top for opening the case, with an optional locking latch at the bottom. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] |

| Stealthboy, I took some time to go through all the pics in your Picasa vintage album. I totally enjoyed watching them: the micro collection, the custom glass cabinet with 96 loose figures, the 12-backs, the little display with C-3PO and R2-D2, etc. The perspective of some of your pics made the scenes come to life very much. For instance the pics below.

| Thank you for sharing. Totally awesome display. The set up of the room rocks. Can't wait to see it grow even more. |

| Your room looks awesome! I agree with whoever said this was a 9 year old's dream room!
We haev similar cases and I also used a detolf for the Micro Collection. It really is perfect isn't it?
Well Done! |

| Cool setup man! I also like the last 17 you have framed with their coins. Cool idea! |

| Michael: What a great update to your amazing bedroom.
The finished figure case is brilliant and I can stop looking through all the photos in your picasso album. I wish I had a display room like. It the one of the best I have ever seen. It reminded me of the old palitoy advert I saw as a kid with all the ships on display in the bedroom. |
