Others have done it before, so I thought I'd share the room where I keep most of my collectibles. However, since this isn't really very Joe-intensive, I'm not putting it on the front page. But I wanted to share anyway, hence the following. Oh, and please forgive the quality, but it's too dark to take pictures in the room without the lights on-- but when the lights are on, they reflect off everything. Plus, I sort of did this on a whim, and I wasn't trying to win any awards with my photography. That said, here it is:

This is how the room appears when you look in through the door:



Going counterclockwise through the room, we start on the right-hand wall where you'll see lithographs of everyone's favorite Decepticons, Megatron and Shockwave:


Continuing to move left, you'll see a movie poster for the original Transformers: The Movie, and a poster of Spider-Man in his black costume:


Now it gets interesting. To the immediate left of the Spidey poster is a bookcase containing the following:
Top shelf: a statue of Marvel's Adam Warlock, a She-Hulk action figure, and several Marvel trade paperbacks.
Second shelf: A Hobgoblin action figure, Titanium Rodimus Prime, and several DVDs.
Third shelf: Power Man and Iron Fist action figures, a Batman action figure, and several more DVDs.
Fourth shelf: Autobot starship the Ark, Master Shake of Aqua Teen Hunger Force, and even more DVDs.
Fifth shelf: An assortment of Marvel Legends figures, and the boxes of Masterpiece Optimus Prime, Starscream, and Megatron.
Sixth shelf: CDs and roleplaying games.


To the left of that bookcase is a second bookcase, housing:
Top shelf: A bunch of random collectibles including Masterpiece Megatron and Starscream, busts of Destro and the Baroness, Hasbro's reissue Soundwave (with his cassettes), a Moon Knight bust, a Starscream PVC figure, an Aqua Teen Hunger Force mini-figure boxed set, a Barry Bonds/Willie Mays figure boxed set, busts of Ironhide and Prowl, and all six original Generation One mini-bots (Windcharger, Brawn, Gears, Huffer, Bumblebee, and Cliffjumper).
Second shelf: Several SOTA Street Fighter figures, a bunch of Marvel hardcovers and X-Men trade paperbacks, and a Storm figure.
Third shelf: Figures of Dragonball's Nappa, Vegeta, Goku, Piccolo, Cell, and Freeza, and some anime DVDs.
Fourth shelf: Classics Jetfire, Marvel Legends Captain Marvel, and some trade paperbacks-- Mostly Marvel, but a few other miscellaneous ones too.
Fifth shelf: a Bunch of coffee table books on Marvel Comics, Star Wars, Star Trek, Uncle Scrooge, and Donald Duck, plus little Decepticon PVCs.


And to the left of that bookcase is --drum roll-- another bookcase! Its contents include:
Top shelf: A bunch of paperback Star Trek novels (and a few others), plus a display of 1970s-era Marvel Legends Avengers.
Second shelf: Paperback Star Wars and Robotech novels (plus a few others including the complete Sherlock Holmes), and a display of 1970s-era Marvel Legends X-Men.
Third shelf: A display of assorted Marvel Legends.
Fourth Shelf: Hardcover Star Wars, Star Trek, and Marvel novels, plus Robot Masters Starscream, Skywarp, and Thundercracker, and Marvel Legends Mr. Sinister.
Fifth shelf: A display of 1990s-era Marvel Legends X-Men (plus the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants), a Batman figure, and some Marvel trade paperbacks.
Sixth shelf: Disney comic albums from my childhood, roleplaying games, and a shrine of multiple Generation One Optimus Prime figures.

To the left of that bookcase is a small table housing my printer and a couple of shelves with some mangas. Above those are two Batman paintings from a four-painting portfolio set that I've had since I was like five years old.


Against the next wall is my desk, housing my laptop, some CDs, a Marvel Legends black costume Spider-man, a Marvel Select Watcher figure, a Microman Chun-Li, and a PVC Megatron standing next to Action Master Shockwave. Above that desk, between the windows (though not visible in this shot), are the other two Batman paintings from the set I just mentioned.


To the left of the desk are two small filing cabinets, atop which reside Masterpiece Optimus Prime and all my classics Decepticons (plus Titanium Soundwave, Revoltech Megatron, G1 Rumble and Ravage, and G1 Devastator). Behind them is a small bookshelf (that I made when I was a Cub Scout), which holds a bunch of Lupin the Third mangas and DVDs. Next to that shelf is an Uncle Scrooge snow globe.


To the left of the filing cabinets, in the next wall, is a closet. But this is no ordinary closet, no. Behind its sliding doors is my comic book collection:


And to the left of that we have a poster of one of my favorite Marvel crossovers, the Infinity War, and a TV, which sits atop a short bookcase in which we find:
Top shelf: DC Direct JLA figures, a Darkseid figure, and my small collection of DC hardcovers and trade paperbacks.
Second shelf: A display of Marvel Legends Spider-Man and a whole bunch of his enemies.
Third shelf: Video games (the consoles are in another room).
Oh, and next to that bookcase is a tower holding a bunch of DVDs.



And finally, on the wall right before you leave the room (and hiding the fuse box), is a poster advertising that Marvel comics are on sale here. They actually aren't, but I got this poster from my neighborhood comic shop when I was probably about 12 years old, so I've kept it since it's kind of cool.


You may be asking where all the Joes are, and the answer is: Up in my bedroom, strewn about since they've been used in the TF crossover a lot lately. Plus, and I speak only for myself, I've never found ARAH Joes to be especially displayable. The 25th ones, on the other hand, will definitely find a place in this room when they come out.

And that's it! Hopefully everyone's enjoyed the tour. It's a pretty small room, but I managed to squeeze a lot into it.

Thanks, gang! Sometimes I just go in there, sit down, and enjoy the atmosphere. It's very relaxing.
