Thank you! I am glad you think so, that's what I was hoping for. Yes, if not, I won't have anything to participate with. They're already few and far between. But also really nice to me. They remind me of bringing the comics to life, straight from the pages. Also, I wouldn't have too much space to display all the characters I want, like the whole X-men team or DC rogues. No matter how great they look

Thank you for chiming in guys.
Wow, I didn't think it would be such a hit. I love the color, but chose it to tie my teams together as they all have that color in common.
I tried to convince as much of the things I like, without overwhelming or cluttering it, or mudding it all together. So I had to make some cuts that aren't as represented as I'd like (DBZ, Pokemon, 80s cartoons, Spawn, but that's McFarland's fault, movies theme, etc)

Thank you sir! I appreciate your compliment. I'm still waiting to see yours all come together. Trust me, I know the patience it's takes to wait for all this cool stuff.
I can't take credit for the built-ins though. I was fortunate to have them here already.

Kotobukiya - Pokemon: Onix v Pikachu

Very cool! I like that display cabinet that you've got your Submariner, Iron man, Thor set up in. What are the dimensions of that case?

Nice Display. You and me, we both like vs dioramas. I can't wait for the next DC vs diorama of Sideshow. I had to pass on Batman vs Superman because i missed the exclusive version. Exclusive or nothing ! (:

I really like this idea of mostly diorama pieces. The Wolverine vs. Sabertooth is still one of my favorites (and wish I had even though it wouldn't fit into my collection.)

Congrats on finally getting everything setup!

Thanks, they were book shelves. I relocated half my books to be able to use them as display. They're 41"w x 12"d x 17"/23" h for the Marvel side & 30"w x 12"d x 17"/23" h on the DC side. They're unfortunately for narrow for larger scales which is good and bad.

It is. I truly feel peace in here, now that it's how I want it.

I split between here and the living room. When I want space, quiet or my programming, definitely enjoy my room like a happy child.

I LOVE them. I love a whole lot of other styles this hobby offers, but dioramas are on another level for me. The dioramas and now the movies are what I could only weakly imagine it dream of as a kid.

TBH, SS has left me wanting on their larger dioramas. I love the old scale. For DC, the DC directs have been mostly great for me. I'd love if they did a Hawkman or Aquaman vs diorama.

Thank you. It's been years in waiting, having things boxed 5-7 years, then another to set up. Well worth it though. I have that wolverine/sabertooth as one of the last I'd ever sell, of how good it is. It's prob Top 3-5 for me...
