It’s been almost a month since I came back and both suitcases are still sitting in the middle of my bedroom mostly unpacked. I did take out most of the anime stuff though and now I’m facing yet another dilemma: where am i going to put all that crap!! Figurines are currently taking up all existing shelving units (3 in total), tv bench (which is occupied also by printer, scanner, and a 4ft tall tower of empty boxes) most of my table and a good chunk of living room floor. and with a good number more arriving shortly, what’s an otaku to do?
Now, to the horror of most figurine collectors I actually like being able to touch and to “play” with most of my figurines (and yes, i do call them dolls). so naturally all of them get de-boxed right upon arrival and i’m not too keen on keeping them behind glass either. not to mention that anything glass and cats don’t go together very well. I do have couple of budget plans as to where to keep the figurines, along with the stash of anime magazines, manga, and countless boxes of ancient electronics. But I am curious, where do you guys keep your anime and figurine stash?
On the aside note, as my most expensive doll is making his way here, all of you who own Asian ball jointed dolls, where do they sit?
