The thing about this sort of soulless collector autism shit is that no matter how distasteful you find it, that's what the hobby is about. If I had that kind of money I would make all sorts of crazy cool dioramas with the figures instead of displaying them standing like that. I pretty much just started collecting and I'm already headed toward making a diorama. That shit on the other hand looks like a toy store. However I know this is not a creative hobby at heart, this is a collector's hobby. It's about buying things, not being creative or funny or whatever. That's just the reality of this hobby, it's about validating you because you spent money on things and nothing else and if it weren't like this, the hobby wouldn't exist. So as shitty as it is to think that someone would seek validation through nothing but hoarding shit on shelves, that's actually more true to the hobby than something like taking cool shots or making dioramas. Sure that's cute but that's just not how it works for the majority of people, and by extension the companies who make the figures.
Sort of sad to realize but that's pretty much how it is.
Pic rel is a sculptor that kitbashes random toy/miniature stuff then airbrushes it all it so it looks like marble. He's based as fuck and one of my favorite artists but he's definitely off-topic on /toy/ while the faggot in the OP that the spammer keeps spamming here is as on-topic as one can be.
