You are humble, yet have quite an impressive collection. I love the Taki Korin tower, it's a beautiful piece. Your shot of the Megahouse collection is a great scale reference to me.

Thanks guys! From what I've seen and explored of the forum so far, I like it so far. Seems like a nice community for DBZ fans. shifftymking, yeah, I'm also a fan of InuYasha. A friend of mine got me into it a couple years ago, with Shippo being one of my favorite characters. Great anime, although all in all, Dragon Ball Z is my favorite anime. It's pretty much a huge part of my childhood. Branjita, yeah, definitely some stuff I have that isn't cheap, like that Taki Korin Tower and the Super Saiyan 3 Goku SCultures. But I find it's definitely worth the money. And @m5jagdragonpanzeriv, I'm definitely loving the Taki Korin Tower a lot as well. Agreed, it definitely is a pretty nice piece. And yeah, that thought didn't even cross my mind when I was organizing everything. But if you're wondering, the Taki Korin Tower is around 12.5 inches tall. But yeah. Thanks for the welcome to the site guys! And for the compliments! =)

Thanks! Everything I have pictured there is about a year's worth of collecting. I also have a collection from when I was a kid as well. A bunch of Irwin stuff, but it's MIA at the moment. Stored somewhere. But yeah. Thanks again! =)

Yeah, it took a bit of courage, but part of me wanted to show off as well. =P And thanks for the compliment. Quite honestly, I'm kind of split with the setup. I can't put my finger on it, but something doesn't quite feel right about how I have all my figures set up and organized. Not sure if anyone has any suggestions/recommendations on changes or ideas of how I can have a better set up with what I have there, or if you think I should just leave it as is?

you have awesome figs, so many banpresto that are fine sculpts. The usual idea people have is too display and sort by saga. not too revolutionary but effective that gold haired hscf M Vegeta is sweeeet! and now i know that the adult goku with the power pole is about in scale with figuarts based on that hscf raditz!!! glad you're posting man

Very impressive collection man. I don't think I've ever seen that large Lord Slug figure before. Welcome to the forum!

The lord slug is from the jakks giant ape movie collection line it's like one of the best figures from that line along with cooler IMO. I really like the gyuinu force diorama I have the burter figure only because I got him really cheap but I'll never forget that when I got him I thought he was going to be a lot bigger and cap put me in my place pretty quick and I kept trying to say he was going to be x height and cap was like Ur wrong and I didn't believe him until I figured it out and then I felt like a complete Dbag lol

Yeah, I'm quite the fan of the two big Roshi figures as well. Master Roshi is one of my more favorite characters in the entire Dragon Ball franchise, so I HAD to have some good figures of him in my collection. And yes, I'm quite the fan of a lot of the Banpresto stuff. They definitely have some pretty great stuff. And about the organization of my collection, it's work in progress. Eventually, I do want to have my collection organized into the four main sections of Dragon Ball Z. Like the Saiyan Section, the Freeza/Namek section, the Android/Cell section, then the Buu section. As I collection grows, I'll be able to do some better organization with these sections for my figures. And with Lord Slug, all I remember is that he's from the IF Labs line of figures. The large Cooler is from that line as well. I want to collection figures from the DBZ movies as well, and I thought getting the Cooler and Lord Slug from IF Labs would be the better choice, in my opinion. I really like the Ginyu figures as well. I really was quite the fan of them in Dragon Ball Z. They gave me some good laughs and I enjoyed them. And yeah, when I first saw them online, I thought they would be bigger as well. But I usually try to find out the height of a figure before I buy it or before it arrives, so I have a rough idea of how it'll be in my collection. So they're smaller than I initially thought, but they still look really great! I also want to share an update with my collection. It's the bottom shelf of my collection. The figures that used to be on this shelf were moved one shelf above, the same shelf with Korin's Tower. The new figures I got are on the right side of the shelf. The two Vegeta figures at the back and all those HSCF figures. I also moved Freeza's spaceship onto the shelf as opposed to on top of my dresser as I felt Freeza's spaceship being alone there didn't feel right. So this gives you an idea of what I eventually want to do with my collection. Right now, I have a Namek/Freeza section building up, as you can see here. Then I moved my Creatures Shenron to on top of Freeza's spaceship due to space issues, but I think it's a nice touch. I like how this shaped up. Hope you like it too.

Just thought that I'd post an update pic with my collection. Not sure if that's normal or allowed with this forum, but feel free to tell me if I'm wrong. Anyways, as you can see, I've finally got everything rearranged and organized so that each shelf is by saga now. Here's my collection as it is now, plus another part of my collection (Non-DBZ) that I wanted to show everyone. Anyways, hope you guys enjoy what you see. Overall Collection Saiyan Saga Freeza/Namek Saga Android/Cell Saga World Tournament/Buu Saga Misc. Dragon Ball/Dragon Ball Z Non-Dragon Ball Z Collection
