Many of you have probably seen this if you're on Facebook... But this is my collection. I only collect LJN items and a few other 80s pieces here and there.  I'll be adding Ax MOC to it next week and I have gotten a figure or two since this picture was taken, but I think you get the drift. I've also gotten my LJN ring signed by about 10 other LJN era superstars at The Big Event NY, so that's looking much more cluttered with autographs now. |

Amazing collection & display room
Do they all stand on their own okay?
Or do some lean back ?

Amazing collection & display room Do they all stand on their own okay? Or do some lean back ? Thanks for the compliments all! As for the question, I use various methods for having them up. The loose figures almost always have to lean back against the MOC figures or the shelf edges on the stands. The MOC figures have various methods: 1) Tags stand perfectly upright, although I did have to fold the tops back to get them in the shelf... although they were all fold already from shipping and storage over the years before I got them. 2. The MOC in the black stand in the middle all just lean back against the rails fine. 3. The Thumb wrestlers and MOC on the shelves and top of stands area all using "easel" stands. They're for picture frames and stuff like that. You can get them from Michaels or other craft stores |

Kasper.caAhh thanks. I don’t have a lot of LJN but the most of the ones I have don’t stand up on their own or not for long. Just wondering if it was common problem.

I used to stand mine up with a penny or two under their feet. I had the whole collection standing free that way for years! Nowadays I'd try to use clear rubber bumpers like you'd find on a cabinet door. |

I use BlueTak for the LJNs to help them stand. Not sure of the equivalent in the States? Probably BlueTak!

Awesome! Love the set up and the old-time posters as well. I don't collect LJN's (though I really like the British Bulldogs and Hart Foundation sets I've seen), but, I do collect Hasbro's like you collect LJN's - that is MOC and Loose of each, I only have a few more to collect and I am done.
