I am so impressed with your collection! I only collect all the X-Men from the Jim Lee Retro Era. I would have to sell my house if I had your collection, so I'm admiring through you. Well done! 👏👏👏
I love Team Building! I even make up teams! I am a 28 year Collector, 10 different Earth's, over 3100 total figures. Marvel 616 is my most complete Earth. I have 74 Avengers, 50+ X-Men on 4 different X-Teams, Classic 7 Defenders, a 6 member Fantastic 4. I added Thundra and Sharon Ventura Ms. Marvel. Working on a Silver Sable Wild Pack and a Super Agents of SHIELD made up of leftover Heroes.
I make up teams too, it's fun to have a 'what if' kind of head cannon. Also help restrain purchases because of worry of fomo or wanting to collect them all etc.
I have kind of Fallen into making Teams and even entire World's by accident. I made a British Super Hero Team I call United Kingdom for example. Captain Britain Megan Union Jack Abigail Brand (a green haired female figure who isn't Polaris or Fire from DC. I looked.) Britannic; a British looking Iron Man Armor, I say was built and piloted by Inventor George Wells. A sneaky tribute to the father of Science Fiction Spider Bond, a Spider-Man figure that does exist, I say it's a British MI-6 Agent, current 003, and I say it's my friend David Gillham of Displaying Model Behavior! Lady Pendragon, Brunette, I say it's the descendant of Gwenaviere, weilding Excalibur Merlin, an extra Gandalf the White, but we all know Gandalf had many names, and in Marvel there's like 6 guys who were Merlin. Who's to say Gandalf wasn't one of them? And then, by chance, I once ended with an entire new Earth. A few years the media chain Hastings went out of business. They were selling off female action figures for $5 each. I ended up with a lot of Female action figures I had no place to put them. So, I created an Earth Created Equal; all Women planet based on a DC Storyline where all Men died. There were several Arrowverse women and I ended up with them; Melissa Supergirl Felicity Smoke White Canary Black Canary Hawkgirl Vixen Then some others; Batgirl of Burnside Movie Wonder Woman Alternate Mera Second Big Barda White Costume Mary Marvel Super Lois Second Fire Second Ice Second Katma Tu Suicide Squad Katana Third Huntress Second Power Girl Supergirl and Power Girl in the Nightwing and Flamebird outfits Alternate Zatanna Starfire in a different outfit And some Bad Girls; Arkham Harley Quinn Poison Ivy alternate Super Woman A bizarre New 52 Starfire covered like a Mummy, I fudge her as a character called Desert Wind Red Lantern Mera, still another Variant, this one I could use as a Villainess A Cell Shaded Star Sapphire, my 3rd of her. I also had some other female figures I could throw in there. But, that's how I ended up with an entire Earth!
DUDE that is one hell of a collection, I can only hope to one day to be able to display mine’s like this, on the Illuminati you might want to add a Black Panther cause he was apart of that group too and told them to go home and go be with there wives this is a bad idea. My collection is extensive and I haven’t been able to display it where looking for a bigger house I expanded my collection from ML & MS when appropriate because there larger size characters fit in well for me, too DC (Universe & Collectables) Thundercats G.I.joe I can only imagine how overwhelming and joy it was to put a collection together like you have done, NICELY DONE ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I started out saying I just wanted villians then just the core Avengers, then just the Xmen, and ended up just getting anything I could find. I have been selling stuff to just have one version of each character. . But this collection is amazing more complete teams than I ever had.
Sell it? SELL IT?!? Please don't sell it!! It's too awesome!! You're creativity and knowledge are too awesome! You've given me soooo many ideas!! And here's an idea for you re wings for your Sam Wilson Captain America. I bought a "golden armor Wonder Woman" from her second movie (sorry, I didn't see it, so I don't know what it is). I painted the wings red and stuck them on "Falcon Cap," and it works quite well. Then I stood armored WW next to Odin as a stand-in for his wife, Frigga/Freya, and that works pretty well. Anyway, thanks for this. You are sooo inspiring!!
Subscribed!! God-tier collection!! I enjoyed it very much and appreciated you teaching us about the story timeline with pictures! I learnt a lot from it! THANK YOU!! :)

Absolutely amazing display love the way you have each display in line with the comics and all the diorama. Ps did you ever sell it ? I would love to buy it but don't think I'd be able to afford it lol !!
Haha cheers man. Na didnt find a buyer so still got it. In fact is grown quite a bit since this video, been considering making another update video soon
@chrisbob3007 brilliant I'd love to see an updated video. I'm a fairly new collector got in to the line about 6 months ago always something I wanted to do but never really had the space unill now. But man it's an expensive hobby I'm up too about 360 figures so far including the haslab sentinel and galactus and I've had to take my foot off the pedal a bit lol. Keep going really amazingly display 👌🏻 all the best Chris uk
Hello! Impressive collection! One question though, why didn't you opt for the 5x5 kallax instead? Seems more efficient. You are using the 3x4 ones correct?
I'm using 3 CD/DVD shelves which have 3 columns each but can adjust the height of the shelves to fit in as many as I can fit. The kallax shelf holes are too large for how I want to display
It was a prototype figure they made but never released. The original hasbro Mystique also had that chest and believe there was a Black Widow figure that also utilized it
...I think there was a factory in China that was selling some of the prototypes that never got released on Ebay, there was also a white Phoenix and Phoenix force Cyclops they were selling too
Various ways, ones in the centre are usually hooked to the shelf above by their hair or elbows, the ones on the sides have thin nails that slot in at the top of the legs. Falcon has a tac pinned between his thighs
All kinds of places. I usually pre order everything through BBTS and then cancel the order if it comes out locally in NZ before they get it. Otherwise sourcing older figures from other collectors in the NZ facebook group
