Well, I certainly don't have 1/10th of the amount of stuff and space that JB seems to have, but my wife would still argue that I have more than enough sci-fi and comic book nic-nacs.

I try to keep everything boxed up in the basement, and every couple of months haul out some select items that I place around my man-cave.  Then rotate accordingly.  Something to think about, JB?  Or would the other question be:  Do you even have enough spare room to box up some of your stuff?

I AM OUT OF ROOM!

I know you've occasionally expressed disappointment in items after seeing them in person (such as the Lynda Carter Wonder Woman statue) -- have you thought about selling some of your lesser liked items on ebay to reclaim both space and money?

Yep, I do the "rotation display" thing as well...  Though I've been lucky enough to keep a mental inventory of my storage closet, so not to end up accidently getting doubles... 

Kinda glad the GURREN LAGANN merchandising blitz is finally winding down...  Got enough Yoko statues and figures as it is.

I think it's still a good thing to SEE what's available out there.

That's what I do Lars. I gave up collecting stuff like this years ago when money became an issue. Now I live through the pics on this thread.

…GURREN LAGANN…

I have no idea what this is, but it sounds like "Green Lantern" with a speech impediment!

...Or, somebody trying to say it while gargling, JB!

"GURREN LAGANN" was a 2007 anime TV series (and now compilation movies) from GAINAX Studios (GUNBUSTER, NADIA, NEON GENESIS EVANGELION) that featured over-the-top mecha action sequences, and one very popular red-headed sniper gal named Yoko Littner:

(The Revoltech action figure based upon the movie-version Yoko)

Gurren Lagann was a really fun series, Bill. And the Revoltech figures are great. I've got the Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann and a couple of the Patlabor ones.

Yes, the throne is sold separately and cost about $50 more.

Dwayne,
   
     The throne by itself is actually $140.00.  The figure is roughly another $90.00.  I like them both but there's to many other things I can spend $230.00 on.

That's what I was trying to state, Brian. I just didn't word it clearly. I meant $50 more than the price of the figure. $140 + $50 = price of the throne.

Thanks for the clarification.
