I was going to build custom shelving but the prices of lumber right now are crazy so for a while at least I am going with pre-made shelving I bought from Lowe's.
The calm before the storm. Some things are where they should be and a ton of others are not. Lot's more boxes to open and hope no more damage. LOL

yep...takes a lot of time repacking unpacking and setting up statues....and in the process breakage happens....i recently repackaged some of my collectibles just for the hell of it and regretted it....like i had one SSC Ms Marvel on display for years in a sealed glass cabinet i decided to repackage recently.... it had a perfect yellow S emblem and after i repacked it i reopened it 3 days later because i forgot to put the red sash in and BINGO!....yep the emblem cracked in 3 places....i figured it was from when the top styrofoam was placed it puts pressure on the chest and makes the old and less flexible yellow paint crack.....good i have an undisplayed SSC Ms Marvel EX backup
i bought a while back....so with that i ended up cutting out the front chest part of the top styrofoam to prevent the cracking....the S on that EX is still in perfect condition
so yeah for anyone planning on repacking a Ms Marvel SSC statue you need to cut out the chest portion of the top styrofoam otherwise you will end up with a damaged statue...
