I've seen that site before, but never the other peoples collections. Pretty neat. I admit, that for the little figures (because it gets too expensive to get doubles of everything), I'll get an extra one to keep inside the box, but as for everything else, I kind of like to take them out for display. Set them up all together. For one thing, it takes up a lot less space (especially wall space, since I barely have enough of that for all the Fett posters) and I think it makes it a lot more personable, if that makes any sense. Like you can actually see how it was meant to be displayed, you know? Not behind a glass case, out of reach (although the cases make dusting a lot easier). Some of the real hard to find stuff I'll keep in the boxes. Some, because it's actually easier to display in it's own box. Some of the new Jango Fett masks and guns sets will stand up a lot better inside their packaging. I think people are starting to have more collector's in mind now. I keep telling my wife that my biggest beef if not having enough wall space to hang up all my Fett posters and pics in the same area. And there's no real good way to hang up all the clothing and bedroom items. I'll never be completely satisfied with how my collection is set up until I find a way to put all that stuff up, too.
I was looking at some the collections on there, and thought these were pretty neat:
What my room might look like, if I could put up the drapes and bed sheets. I like what this guy did with the Underoos and Halloween costumes. Don't know if I'd want to open up my Underoos box, though. And I kind of like my Halloween costumes inside their boxes. Reminds me of the old days.

I knew about the one guitar, didn't realize there were two different versions, though.

I want to know how these people find all the inclosed cases. That, in itself, must cost quite a bit.

By the way, did you guys see the Steve Sansweet Collection on that site? Pretty neat.
