A Side Of The Batcave Toy Room Not Normally Seen

Most photos taken in the Batcave Toy Room are from a view that is seen when you first walk into it, but this time we get to see what's around the corner.

Really it's not much. Literally. The space on floor was a mess 29 days ago and is now reduced to a couple of boxes that are filled with items I am planning on selling.

Day 22 inspired another toy clean up and restoration on Day 23 of My 31 Days to a Better Toy Collection Challenge. This time with my vintage Kenner X-Wing Fighter vehicle.

Maximizing My Shelf Space For More Toys

It's been a hard days night and I've been working like a Wookie.

Day 19 of my 31 Days to a Better Toy Collection Challenge ended with an overall very productive weekend. I continued to maximize my shelf space, which in turn is allowing me to display as many of my vintage toys as possible.

Remember That Mess In The Batcave Toy Room?

 

Clearing the floor in the Batcave Toy Room

Day 2 of my 31 Days to a Better Toy Collection Challenge went from the toy room doubling as a storage unit to looking more like a toy display and what you see above on Day 17.

We've been selling, donating, and rearranging all of our excess stuff that was in the toy room. The great thing is this process is also taking place throughout the entire house.

Even with All My Powers I Couldn't Make the Hurt Go Away

Day 15 of my 31 Days to a Better Toy Collection Challenge has another focus today gang. My little sidekick/protege has an earache.

Gosh, I hate when little ones hurt. I so badly want to take the pain away and can't. I'll get back on track as soon as she feels better. Hopefully, this doesn't last long.

An End to a Good Thing with My Micro Collection Contact

Vintage Star Wars Micro Collection Action Playset from the Batcave Toy Room

Day 14 of my 31 Days to a Better Toy Collection Challenge brings the last round of recently received Star Wars Micro Collection action figures.

This last set of four figures completes the set of action figures for my Bespin Control Room action playset and the last set I will probably get from my former Kenner employee contact as he doesn't have the other die cast figures that I need.

I Sense a Disturbance in the Toy Room

A diamond in the rough for the Batcave Toy Room, a vintage Snoopy Sno-Cone Machine

Not really a disturbance, but something more like an oddity.

I guess not really an oddity either, but something you don't see everyday in my collection of toys. A vintage toy yes, but not the standard Star Wars, World Greatest Super Heroes, Batman or Super Powers Collection you normally would see.

Not Knowing When to Leave Well Enough Alone with Your Toy Collection

Many of the vintage Star Wars toys in The Batcave Toy Room

On day 6 of my 31 Days to a Better Toy Collection I revealed a shelf in the Toy Room that I was completely content with, but on Day 12 I had to go and change things up again.

 Open the blast doors! Open the blast doors!

I had a request from toy collector JBoypacman to see more of my Death Star Playsets. So, here's a lesson in ask and thy shall receive.

Echo Station Three-T-Eight. We have spotted Imperial Walkers!

Here's a peak at my now complete Hoth Turret Defense action playset from my Star Wars Micro Collection. My contact came through again with more figures to reinvigorate my micro collection. I also went ahead and kept my Rebel Soldiers from my "Build Your Armies" set figures together with others from this playset.

31 Days to a Better Toy Collection Challenge: Handling Toy Restoration Projects - Day 8

Most followers of the Batcave Toy Room know that I am into restoring vintage toys. This can be as simple as cleaning up a dirty toy to doing a complete rebuild, which can very inexpensive or not worth your time and money as you would be better off to buy a specimen in better condition.

Let's get re-acquainted, Shall we?

It's hard to believe that the Batcave Toy Room will be four years old this Summer. Time flies when you're having fun. It has been an awesome ride and I can't believe how many great toy collectors I have met over the years. It has definitely been a learning experience.
