The closet is actually pretty big, but you can't tell from this picture! In addition to all of the boxes there is also a full size book shelf that I worked in as well as my CD rack and several spill over comic boxes. I don't have it in me to toss these boxes out or to even break them down so they'd be more compact.
Top shelf, right - mostly Japanese G1 Destron boxes (including Darkwings giftset, Dinoforce, Breastforce & Beastformers) |
I have really enjoyed blogging about toys since I started this blog a few years ago, but even more so recently. That said I've got some great things in store for this year, but don't expect to see a lot of the vintage packaging. I'm not about to go in the closet and tear it apart just to grab one box. I hate that I may have to use stock images in future reviews, but as you can see I've had to work each box in this closet as it were a Tetris piece!
Space is becoming an issue for me, not too mention all the packaging.
ReplyDeleteI would have preferred to keep everything but since I can't I've had to toss the insides and fold down the boxes. The only ones I didn't are the foreign ones. Encore, third party, Takara and the like. And it's still taking up a lot of space.
I've pretty much done the same thing. I gave up a long time ago on keeping Hasbro packaging. Most of the stuff you see in my closet is Japanese or European boxes.
DeleteOh man, I know exactly what you mean! My closet doesn't look quite like that, but it is getting close! I have all of my MOTUC in the top of the closet in their mailers, and then my ton's of board games hanging out too! then my vintage stuff is in the bottom where it can fit.
