Actually, I thought of making a new one but I asked around first and ended up finding this topic instead. It only had a few posts, that's why I found making a new one a waste. Also, your maintaining your Dirty Pair collection sparked the idea.
I wanted to post some of my plamo, but my baby brother happened. TT-TT

I think he looks good surrounded by all the ladies.

We all know he's hard.
Snap built only?

He is. I like the quality of the master grade on its own, but I did paint and glue some parts for fun.

About that and my collections, I shan't be posting too many or much of those in the future.
Reason? ~
~ They're all in storage currently, are difficult to be opened up, and such again.
I have too many other things to attend to as well, as the end of the year starts to get closer, including the plushes that are being developed ~ (but that's for the Waifu Thread)...

I actually like the way you care for your collection. I'm only learning to do that now and I have to enforce that on myself since I don't want the kits I worked hard on to get damaged and since I'm gonna have nephews/nieces in the future: destroyed. I want to take my old projects out of their boxes someday too in good condition.

It's a good model.
I'm trying to get the Full Armor Unicorn Gundam built soon too. I think that one might be the most difficult I have ever done. You ever done a Perfect Grade?
I haven't. The highest I've done for a commission was an MG Strike Freedom.
The Unicorn is the busiest I've seen though. I'm guessing you'll be keeping it in Destroy Mode anyway.
I will. After I finish this one I think I will get a Perfect Grade just to say I have made one, but I'm gonna have to save up for it.

This is (just) me and I know some people do it differently...
But, I take out a or (rotate) a single figure (once in a while) to let it - 'breathe' - then after awhile, place it back into its storage.
I started doing this, (after) I experienced the water damage done with the 2 collectors editions of the Dirty Pair Manga,so I (now) always check my collections regularly and rotate the stock (so to speak).
This way I am aware of any changes occurring with them and if anything is seen that I am missing.
Simple little things like pressure marks, bends, dents on boxes or the plastic, dog-ears on a Magazine, or (even) simple "storage wear" will start to show, so I feel that by doing that, I am (at least) avoiding it or prolonging it from happening.
I am sure that many will have different ways of attending to their collection personally, so whatever works, is well worth doing imo.
Figures/statuettes and plastic models are cared for differently. :D
As for me, projects 'In Progress' are displayed, since they're snap built models, it's fine. Once they're finished, photos >> box >> storage. If they're commissions, it's up to the owner how to care for them.

Nyahaha. Make sure it's one you like. PGs are demons [pretty much the reason why I don't have one... yet].
Yeah I've been leaning toward the Raiser 00. Its kinda my fav.
I have a rather substantial collection of figures now, but I'm waiting to move to a more permanent place before taking them out of their boxes and setting them up on display shelves worthy of their presence.

Won't be until I'm settled, which will hopefully be sooner rather than later.
This is my Kaitendoh PVC Seras Victoria. Just wanted to add it in.
fuck.......
some times i hate being poor, and living in the desert
a REPOST from the Latest Purchase Thread, since everything is in storage....
~ the copia/pastia
======
Well...
As I was rotating my figure stock, I decided to take a - "re-pic" - of one of the first few purchases from long ago...
I am a fan of - 'The Diry Pair' (original and films) - and the subsequent series....
From the 1980's -
First English Edition: 1987 - ISBN 4-06-186030-5 - cover missing
I (also) have the Japanese version - 'Dirty Pair No Daiboken' 1980
and from the - Dark Horse comic HARDCOVER Collective renditions - from the 1980's, which (unfortunately) were damaged through the years - however - I did managed to save the signed artist signatures and drawings...
From afterwards... the figures, which are NOT PVC type, and have the pegs (in order) to set them onto the stands...
Gonna hafta post my new and improved one after i move...And yeah i'm moving into my own house.
Friend just updated me with the progress on my model.
