I think some continuity in style and colour for your shelving would make it look a lot better. That is a huge collection you've got going. Might as well go all out on shelving/display cases too lol.

I had these extra wooden crates laying around and thought I could repurpose them. But you’re right, it doesn’t match all the black ikea pieces. I might paint them black and see if I like it better. I want to ball out and do custom floor to ceiling acrylic display cases with lights. That would be the dream, no more dusting. :drunk::sweetjesus:
Of course then I’ll have to puddy and paint all the walls.

My favorite is the land rover

It's like 'What, me worry?'

@red kryptonite - I didn't know you rode? S1000RR? :suspicious:

^its made out of legos.

Even just a plank of wood going all the way across would be better than the crates. The crates limit the size and placement of things. The way some of them hang out the box would make me feel uneasy every time I look at it.

ya! i had a cbr 600rr. if i had a s1000rr in my 20s id be dead right now.


youre absolutely right, it would be alot nicer if nothing stuck out.
im gonna double down on the crates look. im gonna get a few more of the 18" ones to match the 6 i already have. these will be perfect for the icons/creator cars on one side. on the other side i'll do 25" ones for the technic supercars. ill stack it from floor to ceiling to avoid putting more holes in my walls and it'll cover all the existing holes. stain it black and add some lights.

^ sam ehere if i had s1000RR in van or in toronto. i'll be dead. esp when people don't respect lights.
i rode it during the course in vegas and it's epic fast.

thats why you guys should all ride vespas! 250cc or 300cc, not those even more faggoty 50's or 125'c. Lots of fun and you wont die.

Nevermind bikes, if I've given me a a M3 when I first started driving I'd probably be dead as well.

this is neat, where'd you get the crates from?

Well he does live on the island, lots of white hipsters there with crates and shit from organic farms.

fuck i feel old. i remember helping my kids with lego sets when they were super young, correcting mistakes they did.

built transformers soundwave and had to remove my glasses to see things up close properly :okay:

then built this guy over the weekend, and it was reversed, my oldest caught a couple mistakes i made, and also was able to find pieces and help me find pieces as if roles were reversed :lol

Too lazy to post my own pic so found a stock pic online

Shittt, a Mad Cat / Timberwolf!!

^sick timber wolf !!!! Don’t you guys dare call it a mad cat you inner sphere freebirth scum !

Looks like dual ppcs and ER meds in the arms. Too many LRMs though. Not heat efficient.

Madcat :troll:

Of course it has ER PPC. Anyone who puts a regular PPC on a Madcat must be mad.

The MW5 trailer had so much promise, but seem to have released without much fanfare.

This thread is turning out to be the one for nerds!

It goes without saying. Clan mech, omni mech too, and therefore should only equip clan tech.

I enjoyed it. I still play mechwarrior online from time to time. At one point I was really into it and was apart of the DSX clan diamond sharks , even had a trial of position and fought for my Rank and Blood name.

Ps. Piranha games is based out of Vancouver !!! They used to be out of that building in Tinseltown.

CT, Home Depot has them.

I’m a AFOL, dunno what those nerds are talking about hahaha

Nuh uh!

PPCs make significantly less heat, so the average sustained firepower is higher.

I used to retrofit PPCs onto every mech in MechCommander, especially because at the longer range, they would miss all their shots anyway.

*poke glasses back up nose; snort*

DPS!?!?! You dare talk about DPS in face of clan tech!? Don’t make me HYPER GAUSS RIFLE you!!! Traditional table top battletech would have taught you freebirth scum that clan tech weapons are longer range, lighter, cooler, and more damaging than your surrat inner sphere trash. Ton for ton, nothing beats clan tech.

Pssssh……. Clan Wolf 4 ever !!! May Kerensky guide you and your Ultra Autocannons never jam.

I prefer engaging long range, get a few shots off before they get close, preferrably blow an arm off or make them limp :pokerface:

I'm also not a missile fan, I got ammo anxiety.

I for one am taking pride in the fact that I have no clue what these nerds are talking about :lol
