@@godertwalter1978 I still wish I could have toured your setup of season 1-4 G1! I love the Trypticon space for being so clean and unique, but I feel like you could have stared at that other setup for hours making all the smart connections to each episode that you did. Your ability to curate spaces doesn’t go unnoticed over here :)

@@deeves_ for vintage, I did my very best to collect “loose, complete” because who has space for that many boxes?! 😂 but if I ended up with a vintage box, I’ve held onto those. Anything mainline was always recycled, but I have held onto MP and “most” 3P boxes and I do use those to store extra faces and accessories too… I would say 80% of the ziplock bags are holding vintage accessories because so many of the cars and jets had hands and stuff that didn’t store in alt mode. So all the boxes I do keep are stored in one closet in a guest bedroom upstairs near the display area

To be fair, I never thought it would come together like this either 😆 When I redid the room with lights, paint, and downsized to spread everything out … I was like WOAH when I was done 🤣

I appreciate it!!! When I redid the space last year it even surprised myself how well it came out hahah

Thanks!!! It’s been a slow evolution over the last 36 years haha … but I genuinely appreciate all the kudos, I’m very proud of all the curating and it was kinda funny, I rewatched my video from last year and just noticing all the major and minor tweaks already was really cool 😂

Hahahahah no #TheOtherBobby 😂 But I did submit a previous version of my display and it was the last one featured in episode 33. I always knew I wanted to add lights and paint but hearing their critiques pushed me over the edge to just get it done 😂 I wish I could post a photo, but step one was literally removing every single figure off every single shelf 😂 it was crazy!!! But it was just what I needed to reimagine the space

I appreciate it!!

Sure thing!! 😂 you near Houston? Haha

Thank you!!! 😅😅

Thank you!!! If only my 8 year old self could get a glimpse of this room!!! 😂😂

@ man what, I look at my collection and say the same thing. 😂🤣❤️

Glad I could help! I’ve stolen countless ideas over the years and slowly smashed them together into something I love 😊

I ended up grabbing the Takara Skywarp 3.0 to check them out but I still think he’s a little short … maybe that’s a side effect of the DS ones being a little tall too. I actually preferred him being a tad shorter in my reformatting display … there’s a huge size difference in my G1 Hotrod transitioning to MP Rodimus so I liked the shorter Skywarp becoming the taller (and bulkier XTB) Cyclonus. I’m with you on the FT Ultra Magnus … he looks great! I’m no stranger to swapping figures so it might happen still 😂 I don’t generally support straight KOs but if one comes out I wouldn’t be able to say no then

@LouboutinReviews All the same you have an amazing collection! Thank you for taking the time to share it. If you're in the PNW I'd love to see it in person! I'll ping you on TFW :)

@@Nyarlahotep down in Texas 😂 but I’ve had local collectors come by before and it’s always awesome to share it with people!! I even love when it’s just a casual friend or someone and they’re like “I had this one … he was blue and turned into a plane” and then I go point to it and they freak out 😂 it’s the best!!!

It’s certainly taken a long time to get to this point and now that I’m finally extra proud of how it looks I love sharing it with anyone interested!! I always wonder what 8 year old me would think if I could show him a glimpse at this room!

I imagine those are the exact reactions my 10 year old self would have seeing a glimpse of this room 😂

I remember when the internet kinda came out and I finally learned that there were vintage figures made in other countries 😂 I was like … time to update the checklist hahah

So the company name is NuSupplyFX… I could be wrong, but I remember a while back they were liquidating some of their stuff so not sure what all is left or if they were pausing production etc… some of it can be a little pricy for what it is, but I bought most of it slowly as they came out and you can’t argue with the results 😂

I often wonder my my 10 year old self would think seeing this room 😂

@@LouboutinReviews right? I want to go back in time and show young me the MS-02 Light of Peace. Or the new MARGH Ultra Magnus

@@TechWizard28 I still remember holding MP1 (or 4) for the first time and thinking that Transformers could never get any better 🤣 I specifically recall thinking about showing it to my younger self so it’s funny you should mention that… my where we’ve come 😂 And I agree, MS02 has become my Main MP Prime!

@@LouboutinReviews I had the Hasbro trailer less no-chrome version of MP-1

It’s the only way to get everything you want!!! 😅 Takara was taking too dang long on the MP line and especially the combiners.

I feel like someone will eventually tackle them and Roadbuster etc I’m trying my best to just stick to cartoon appearances, but then you can see I grabbed the Omnibots hahah sometimes it’s for balance like the Omnibots vs Reflector as the mail away figures, but there’s also things like Metroplex and Skylynx that I don’t have room for

I’m glad you liked it! I love sharing my collection with everyone, I just don’t want to be out here spamming videos all the time hahah😅

Good eye!!! And happy “all the holidays” to you too 🤣 So I actually did own the Fans Hobby Monsterbots for a while but they got cut during the “refresh” 😂 it’s not a perfect system, but I “tried” to limit my MP scale to US cartoon appearances. Some exceptions like the Powermaster Jets, Omnibots and Victory Saber … but I tried to draw a hard line to keep the display manageable. For instance I LOVE the Moon Studios Raiden but he’s not allowed hahah

Thank you!!! I always knew at some point that I wanted to add lights and maybe paint the walls… but hearing their critiques finally pushed me over the edge to just get it done 😂 I was tempted to resubmit but he said they’re considering a “redemption” episode at some point and I’m hoping to be featured there!! You should totally keep suggesting it to him though hahaha

@@LouboutinReviews That would be cool. I still need to submit my setup to Collection Critic's, so look for mine in 2.5 years. LOL

@@butterflykatana 🤣 yeah, it takes FOREVER … but that’s totally understandable! I help run a Transformers Displays group on Facebook and we’ve joked about doing our own variation on the idea… I would be doing it just for the fun of it, not to try and copy Bobby or try and make any financial compensation for it. We joked about only doing really awesome displays but be sipping wine and just roasting them to pieces when we really think the opposite is true 😂 But really if we do something like that I wouldn’t want it to feel gimmicky or anything

The technobots are objectively a great set too, but sometimes I’m worried I’m biased 😂. And I absolutely love the look of having the “best visual representation” in MP form along with the vintage that I always wanted … and honestly, I used to display them side by side in robot to show the evolution, but now it makes the display appear far less cluttered and immediately reminded me of those catalogs … so it’s like a love song to my childhood spent staring at those catalogs 😂 I could never go back now! Plus it’s kinda nice to see some of the room in different modes to highlight the whole freaking point of Transformers 😆 You might even notice that when I have a duplicate mold in another color I try to have them in different modes!

That’s the original Toyworld release (I collected them individually as they came out) … I did pick up the upgrade set to swap the head and add some chest fillers. I think some of the later versions came with those standard

So with vintage I always tried to collect loose complete so I never had to deal with that… I do have one closet in the house where I store MP and 3PMP boxes, but if it was ever anything mainline it all got recycled…. I never collected for resale value so I just keep the fancy boxes with all the extra faces etc :) I have no clue how I would ever store 1000+ boxes 😮😮

Thank you!!!!! 36 years in the making 🤣

@@willjavtor and I’m over here waiting on the collab 😂 I’d be in TROUBLE!!!

@@MrLedZepper always glad to inspire people!!! I remember some great collections over the years that I would look up to! When we finally moved into this house about 8 years ago I set everything up and was pretty happy with it … but after getting my Bobby Skullface critiques it finally pushed me over the edge to try something different 😂 taking literally every figure out of the room was a crazy endeavor but it’s what finally forced me to reconsider the room from scratch. It’s honestly still very humbling to be on the other side of this now and having people look up to my display for inspiration. I’m always happy to share my love of the hobby and glad I can contribute in some small way to how people interact with their own displays :)

@@kevastator84 As much as I’ve always kept up with the animated series and toy lines I always felt like I missed out on the comic runs. Obviously I could go back and read them, but there’s something to be said about reading along in real time and being able to discuss the issues with people as they come out… so when Skybound reset the universe I took that as my sign to dive in, and wanted to give them some love!! I wasn’t too sure if it would make that area too cluttered looking but I do really like how it came out!

@@PrimeMystique hahahah naaaaah thankfully it not being a G1 Cartoon leaning design made that an immediate pass for me. I’m sure I’ll be tempted if something does come out like a FT Fort Max and I’m sure I’ll do everything I can to find a way to display the city mode or something 😆 I feel like you gotta own ONE crazy sized figure … and it would likely me a Metroplex or Fort Max if I go that route 🤔

@@sithsim7760 I’m no stranger to “upgrading” figures 😆 that’s sorta why I have that whole row of Autobot cars and Decepticon jets around the center table … but that said I tried to impose a rule on myself to only replace main season 1 characters or if it’s a significantly better design… for example I hated XTB Windcharger and pulled him and Hubcap during the purge 😂 I do think the new Magnus and Galvatron are really nice but so far I’m trying to hold off. Now, if they make a clear/reformatting Galvatron and Megatron at the MP scale then I’d have an excuse to swap out my reformatting Cyclonus display and then I can grab the 2.0 Galvatron 😂 There are always exceptions to the rule, like “no modern CHUG” but I still grabbed the Titan ship modes and some random guys for the Skybound shelves, so you never know…. But anything I buy now has to feel intentional or I have to go ahead and sell off the one I have

@@sgisaza great question and I honestly meant to talk about it because I got this question a lot last video and I just forgot 😂 Thankfully this is a very insulated home and that room has no windows and doesn’t get foot traffic other than when I’m in there so dust generally just doesn’t accumulate at the same speed as other areas of the house. The white shelves also help disguise it compared to darker ones 😂 I’m a school teacher, so usually in the summer time I dust about half of it and if I’m motivated then o dust the rest at winter break… but truthfully, if I didn’t dust for 2-3 years you probably wouldn’t really notice it. In fact, I’d have to zoom around in this video to see if you can even tell, but like I dusted the main wall and the Autobot half this last summer but haven’t touched the Decepticon side since last November… so if you can’t tell too much in the video then woo hoo!! 😂 I’ve thought about getting doors early on but I never really liked all the glare, plus some figures or weapons slightly protrude off the shelves and I find them being open is more inviting to me to walk up and mess with something than having to open a door

Thanks for the kudos!!! I’m a huge supporter of Skywarp and I love my “opinion” front and center 🤣 My room is a dream come true for me and I’m glad to share it with you all!

Thank you!!! It took a lot for me to finally downsize and give the figures room to breathe and be posed properly… this has been a dream come true having started at 4 years old and never imagining to finally “have them all”

@@LouboutinReviews That’s an awesome collection and setup!! I should have had the same focus like you and tapered my collection down to Masterpiece and G1 instead of going nuts with all the series like G1, Masterpiece, Siege, War for Cybertron, etc. Perhaps in the future, if I have the energy, I might sell my other lines and focus on completing the official and 3rd party Masterpiece line, which is my favorite due to size and detail.

@@NastafarAround the time of Transformers Armada and Energon I was still convinced that Transfrmers would die out and I could legitimately have a “complete” TF collection hahah I used to love all the different CHUG style lines but it slowly became too much…. Vintage always took priority and then the more the MP line got fleshed out I figured I already had the “perfect” representation of the character along with the vintage and therefore I didn’t need anything that was sorta “in between” if that makes sense… so I still held onto a sampling of BW, Armada, Animated etc because they were different takes on the characters and it made it easier to completely cut the otherwise G1 feeling modern lines. Don’t get me wrong, those are great figures but if I was gonna cut something, that was the first to go. I also dumped all my Titanium figures and Alternators (this is the one line I kinda want to find room for again but where would I even put them? 😮)

I’m glad to share it with everyone!! Honestly, my favorite thing is when someone comes over who isn’t “really” into transformers at all but starts describing one they had as a kid and being able to walk over and point it out… seeing their reactions is the best

@@popurpet7333 honestly, knowing the expression “never meet your heroes” … these two are the exact opposite. You can tell they are passionate about what they do and genuinely enjoy interacting with fans. Very humble men, the both of them!

Really nice. Just found your birthday messages in your Shorts. That’s really special

@@popurpet7333I’m trying to only watch it on my Birthday each year now to keep it extra special :)

@@chimuelo8768 I like a little controversy front and center 🤣 I might consider changing it if they ever make a transparent Galvatron and Megatron to give me an excuse to upgrade to the new FT Galvatron

I’m just wondering what other “fan arguments” you can incorporate 🧐

@@chimuelo8768I thought about the Frenzy/Rumble but that’s really just a “name” thing … “Truck Not Monkey” but I own both and they’re in their own sections … hmmm 🤔

@@justblaze yeah, about 8 ish years ago now when we were looking for a home it was a total non negotiable to have a big enough room to house everything … well “enough” things 😂 And he got a kick ass garage space, so we both have rooms to escape to lol

Escape spaces are key! When we built ours i got an entire escape floor Haa.

@@justblazeI have high expectations for your escape floor 😂 let me know when the planning stages start!!! 😆

@@Frankzillatoyz I can only imagine what my 8 year old self would think of seeing this room!! I remember looking up to so many great displays and collections when I was younger so it still feels a little weird to be on the other side of that now!

@@gerryortiz7047 Thanks, man!! It’s crazy what some lights and paint will do to a space! The hardest part was downsizing to give everyone some room to breathe!

@@AnotherGalaxyToys 🤣 That’s our side attic where we stick easy access stuff like Xmas decorations… I’d love if it was a secret passage to another room though!! I appreciate the kudos… it was a HUGE decision to focus the collection and sell everything else, but I can’t argue with the results now that it’s all spaced out and room to pose all the MPs. It’s actually quite crazy how many little tweaks have happened in the last year … I’m hoping to record an update over the next 2 weeks (horizontally this time 😝)

@@octane3k so those are by X Transbots … I can’t really recommend them 🤣 but so far they’re the only company making one in that size range. Their first aid is coming out soon, and they’ve shown a prototype of the combined mode a while back. But truly, if any other company advertises they were making one I would say do that instead … that said, you can usually find these two at a low price

@@LouboutinReviews They do look good on your display. I am looking at the Ocular Max ones which look pretty good. Either that or I wait for Hasbro to make their new version of Defensor in a few years time.

@ ​​⁠the OM ones are pretty popular! To me all my combined modes have to be a similar height at 20-24 inches and theirs are too small … if you mostly care about the individual robot modes or the scale doesn’t bother you then I think that’s the better set

@@dissyday1234 these old school “wet apply” Zagg protectors are getting almost impossible to find now… I’ve got 3 extras for future use but I haven’t personally tried anything as an alternative. I have seen “shiny red vibram” as an option to replace the messed up soles and I’ve heard good things about it, but again no personal experience… just something maybe to look into. Seems like a good option once they’ve worn down, whereas the goal of the Zagg protectors were to protect a brand new pair
