I still have two in their boxes. I think it was the best M+ model among the first yamato releases. And it's actually panel lined. Pretty absurd if we think how much we pay for panel lining on the new toys these days. You’re right about that. Quote
badboy00z Posted February 26, 2022 Posted February 26, 2022 Is there a general consensus on what's the best lighting for detolfs? Also do you guys put more than one 1/60 scale Valk on the same shelf in dynamic poses? Quote

Also do you guys put more than one 1/60 scale Valk on the same shelf in dynamic poses? I went with Luke Light and got a V-Shape bracket and diffuser. It worked pretty well but you'll end up paying more for lighting than the detolf itself. There isn't a whole lot of room in a Detolf to have your figures in dynamic poses but you might be able to to make it work with acrylic risers and flight stands. Quote
Slave IV Posted February 26, 2022 Posted February 26, 2022 I use led strips and always try to put more than one in dynamic poses. It helps to have the right stands and especially if Yeti was still around to do the detolf shelf stands. This is just a temporary setup. Quote
Lolicon Posted April 15, 2022 Posted April 15, 2022 Hmmm it seems I've accumulated a lot of Macross cups over the years. Quote

Benson13 Posted April 16, 2022 Posted April 16, 2022 Give me a few weeks and I'll have a new display in my new house. Waiting on paint and new carpet. I'm super stoked. Quote
derex3592 Posted April 18, 2022 Posted April 18, 2022 @Benson13 Can't wait to see it brother! It's the best feeling in the world setting up the "toy room" when you move into a new place! Quote

I'm super stoked. Aside from paying for it and moving I would love a new house! I'd really like to have a space that could double as a toy room/theater. Or just a bigger toy room would work too. I'm at my space limit and then some. Enjoy the new digs! Edited April 18, 2022 by sqidd Quote
Lolicon Posted April 25, 2022 Posted April 25, 2022 Most of my modest valk collection gathered in one spot. Quote
Angesdad Posted April 26, 2022 Posted April 26, 2022 and Yes, what an inspiring gathering it truly is.😀 Awesome collection @Lolicon! Quote

I don't like to display very densely, but it took 80cu ft of cabinet to get them all out of the boxes and displayed. I could display all of yours if I got rid of my Super Robots (not going to happen!). Do you have a room big enough to get all of your stuff out and on display? Quote

borgified Posted April 26, 2022 Posted April 26, 2022 @Lolicon - Take it all into the afterlife as you will definitely be well protected like the Terracotta Warriors that are lined up in Xi'an, China. Quote

That's actually pretty relieving to see that many valks can take up such little space. Should help me out a lot when I store my boxes like that instead of inside other boxes. Thanks for sharing!

Benson13 Posted April 26, 2022 Posted April 26, 2022 That's a fantastic collection Lolicon. Paint just got finished in my new office. Next week is the carpet and installing all the lights in the Detolfs. I'll see if I can get a pic of everything I'm stuffing in my display room. Quote
ValkAddict Posted May 23, 2022 Posted May 23, 2022 @Benson13 - That is going to be a sweet toy collection room! Very nice!! Quote
derex3592 Posted May 23, 2022 Posted May 23, 2022 @Benson13 EPIC START!!! Loving the dark grey paint! Quote

seti88 Posted May 25, 2022 Posted May 25, 2022 @Benson13 Noice! Nice mix of the ikea TV benches (?) for box storage with the detolfs on top... Quote
