Now there's an idea! Never thought of putting them in the wardrobe! My small stash is in a draw in the spare room, but now sprouting onto a shelf in the same room. I've only got 14, but the 'stash' seems to be growing over the last couple of months or so. But at least they're all allocated for various Group Builds, and the second part of the Diorama Guide, when I eventually get around to doing some finishing and photography for it!

Half mines in the wardrobe, the rest battles for place with the wine in my hobby room (dubbed hanger) which also doubles as the cellar.

Cheers fellas.

I also live at home still so what space I have is mine only but also its very cool area in the house. The temps during summer as Vic will know especially living in Canberra can get pretty extreme and do some major warping to the kits. I have a small upstairs area combined with a tin roof becomes a literal furnace in summer.

Thats quite a few years of collecting there for me and theres a lot of kits Im waiting to build because I don't want to balls them up. I worked nights up until recently and I'd have the cash but not the time to build em', hopefully that balance will change now.

Yall are better stocked than the model shop I visit. I feel guilty because I have B-25J, B-25H, F-101 and an F4U on the shelf. I picked them up in the 90's on sale. My father has a stockpiled almost 300 camera so my little supply is under the radar. If the lady complains, I ask her if I can start gathering cameras.

Thanks Dr Wojtek! Well, there's a few kits that you don't see and then I've got the stuff at mum and dads....
