I'm finally taking flash's advice to do something like this even though I could have done it a long time. Completely off topic, I'm really late and noticed flash's new life. It is pretty shocking to hear that from any collector.
Here's a part of where my collection is stockpiled in:
As you can see, there's glimpses of some things here and there and a whole lot of items still in their shipping boxes. Here's some of the figures that I collect still unopened. I have a massive bunch of stuff in 3 different areas in addition to this. Suffice to say, I lose track of what I own and where everything is located at.
