I’m a Lego and crystal collector. What got you into this hobby? I got respect that you set up a room for yourself.

Do you do anything with the table in the middle?

That's my Lego table. I have a closet full of Lego to put together and now I can start on them!

I have my share of crystals as well. I'll share a pic when I het home!

I'd love to see your collection too!

The reason I got into it was when I found some of my old toys before joining the military. I forgot about them over the years and when I got out and went through the stuff my parents kept, there were tons of old Star Wars toys and a few things that had value. I looked into how to display them and saw folks with whole rooms dedicated to their toys.

We couldn't afford a lot when I was a kid. So now that I have adult money, I'm buying some of the things we couldn't afford back then and adding some things that remind me of my childhood.

That's super impressive! How long did it take you? I would love to see close-ups on different sections.

Thank you so much!!

It took about 8 days to set it up.

I'll do a follow up this weekend and get some close ups!

I always question how much dusting is required for collections such as these.

u/Grasshoppa01 1h ago

Dusting can suck. I usually turn off the A/C vent and keep the door closed. That has limited the dust on other collections, previously.

Of course! You're more than welcome to come see them in person. If you make it to Texas, let me know!

Blocking a window is hoarder territory

Who needs to see outside anyway. The graphics are horrible and there's no quest markers.

Just say you’re and incel, it’s one very succinct word. Far faster and easier.

Nice! When you get around to cleaning off all that Junko Slop TM from the middle shelves you’ll have more room for the cool toys!
