I had previously posted to two separate threads for my Beastformers and Non-Beastformers collections, which is kind of stupid, so now that I've revamped my displays with some Detolf shelving I've created a unified one to update moving forward.

 

Still quite a bit that I can't fit; I think I'll be getting mounted shelving for most of that instead of more Detolfs. Here's a quick snap of the full display. I'll be adding detail shots in the near future.

Sweet collection man! I like the separate figure colors in the glass jars. Thanks for sharing.

What are those green/white/blue sharks? (Center glass case, top shelf, front row & to the right of the sunshines)
I really remember loving those as a kid but can't place them. Haven't seen them since the late 80's/early 90's

thanks man! Re: the sharks:

 

 

I'd love to find a sealed box some day, these were my favorite lunch box snack as a kid.

[BadLarry]

Ha! I have a couple of those sharks too. The blue and GID ones. I didn't know there was a white one.

Thank you

[DDR]

Oh man... That's right! I loved them shits! Thanks dude

If anyone is ever getting rid of one... Please let me know.

Great collection buddy! Where did you score the cabinets? And where the hell are all the dinos!?

Those were hands down the best fruit snacks. I have the blue glow shark and two whales with glowing mouths. Not sure where they are from but they look like the same material, size, etc.

These are my go to now. Part gusher, part gummy bear, all deliciousness. Unfortunately no prizes though.

That's a nice setup. Glass and LRG's goes great together.

[bot3ro]

Impressive! All those boxed battle beasts and the Mexican bootlegs look really nice.

I've been looking for those dam shark bite figures for a while! Good work man, They are hard to find.

[Exactobeast]

Awesome collection! I believe I spy some lizard or maybe chameleon customs at the very lower left. Any chance for a close up? I love me them customs!

Love the glass containers. Little rubber guys never seemed like they belonged in rows or bleachers to me. They belong in containers in bunches like that.

Great collection!! The Detolfs are just Ikea glass displays for $150-$200 each. They are pretty good and can be moved around easily. Although they are nice, there are gaps that still lets dust get in so it kind of misses the point. The shelves are removable but not adjustable so they are not the best for small figurines. Large statues work well like from Sideshow. I had for a while a Joker PF statue and took one shelf out to fit it. Totally sweet. The displays are better than any other glass ones I've seen for the price because they have a 'dissapearing corner' that doesn't ruin the display.

 

I just use bookshelves now with the little pegs that lets you adjust the shelves to the specific height for your collectibles. They are $50 at Walmart and are 6ft high and about 2.5ft wide. So you can chain three across a wall.

Detolfs go on super sale from time to time too. I got 2 a few years ago for a really low price that I can't remember right now. (am I that old already?) Definitely less than $100 each.

 

Thank you

[Toytoad]

Great looking collection.

 

I also love LRGs in jars.... loving the rainbow effect in those!

In Canada Detolfs are $59.99. Surely they must be similar in the US? (Not sure where you're located though.)

And correct me if I'm wrong, but unless you have a sealed container, dust can still end up inside a display unit. 



Great collection, Bach!

[steverotters]

It's been two years since I bought one, but Detolf were about $80-100 TOPS.  And those WalMart bookcases were $30 plus tax. 

[bachamn]

thanks for all the comments everyone. The glass containers are avaialable in the Hobby Lobby glassware/jars section for $6 (about $3.50 with their web coupon if you're willing to make multiple trips)

Ha! I have a couple of those sharks too. The blue and GID ones. I didn't know there was a white one.

yeah I think that is all three variants, all of them are GiD btw, not just the green

I have the blue glow shark and two whales with glowing mouths. Not sure where they are from but they look like the same material, size, etc.

yeah like everyone said, those are IKEA Detolfs. Currently $69.99.

 

far left jar is all dino and kaiju keshi

 

Can you take a pic of one of those whales? Not sure I'm familiar but they sound interesting 

 

I've been looking for those dam shark bite figures for a while! Good work man, They are hard to find.

yeah they don't turn up often on eBay, usually go for around $10-12 when they do. Though back in January it looks like a handful went from the same seller for about half that. A sealed one was up not that long ago, wish I hadn't missed that haha

 

Awesome collection! I believe I spy some lizard or maybe chameleon customs at the very lower left. Any chance for a close up? I love me them customs!

Thanks! Those Chameleons are ersico customs; the Shield Dragons haven't been customized (yet...)

 

I have a few a closeup shots of them in my old Beastformers Collection thread and a more recent one on my IG
