Doing some reorganizing today. Wanted to know how other people store figures?
Not talking about displays, but rather the bulk of your collection, the bits that aren't on display.
Here is some of what I am working with right now.

Looks good! Careful of the keshi melt though. Search the forum if you aren't familiar. Can be quite devastating.

I display every figure I own! I don't like buying things just to store in a box. What I do (and it can be a real pain in the A) is stand the all up on bookcase shelves....ive had 1000s of figures in 2 bookcases, but if one figure topples over....prepare to be frustrated lol...nice collection btw!

Is this with all Keshi? I thought it was just certain types 

 

I try to keep them separated by color, but all the popy is together

I have a kitten, so I have to be careful about exposed figures or they will get chewed up.  I keep some display stuff behind glass though like these Minikins

Nice display! Yea I have a cat and have found figures in his water bowl many times lol

I've got 3 totes. 2 of decent size, one smaller one.

One of the bigger totes is my random stuff, the other is for Transformers. The smaller tote is mostly my LEGO figures, with odds and ends that I want to have easy access to. (The bigger totes are a bit of a pain to drag out.)

My wife hates it.

Ohhhhh to be organized... lol...

 

Most of my MUSCLES are in a big ass box, broken down into ziploc bags according to sculpt.  No real display.  And then a few boxes of just random figures in additional boxes.  One day things will be different lol...

HA, yeah I hear that. 

 

I have several large totes filled with figures or LEGOs, but they double as my end table and work table around the sofa.  But yeah the old lady hates it.

 

I also utilize the cheap Sterilite brand drawer systems.  Got 3 tiny ones and 3 large floor sitting ones.  Although these bins also include a portion of my pen & other collections.

My wife hates it.

The wives just don't understand the rubber fever. I have an assortment of figures stored inside of boxes I keep a top a bookshelf. It's good and high up there -- my curious little boy can't reach them and there's no space for the cat to leap up there and investigate either. Plus, with them stored up and away the wife tends to forget that they exist and for that I am thankful.

Yeah my wife hates it too. But mostly because every time a padded envelope showed up it the mail it's never for her.

[MudPuppetJoel]

I told my wife earlier tonight to expect some new arrivals soon. The rubber fever must be treated! On a side note -- what's your profile pic, bones? That's some killer artwork.

[steverotters]

Cool skeleton dude.

My wife gets it, but she doesn't get storing things. She's also a collector, but she doesn't want to acquire things to put away.

We're currently in a smaller place, but we're actively saving towards a house. So one day, all of my LRGs will be on display. Why not get them now while I can? In a few years time, they may be difficult to acquire, more expensive, or both.

Honestly I'm not sure. I was just searching for a kick ass skeleton wizard for my avatar. I believe it's from some sort of card game. There were plenty of other pics depicting different mythical beings. If I can find the site again I'll post it.

By the way the toy podcast was really cool

@steve...I just clicked your link

I'd say you nailed it on your search for a "kick ass skeleton wizard." Thanks for giving the podcast a listen; we had a lot of fun shooting the breeze about toys.
