Relocating the Batcave



Got 2 units of second hand glass display cabinets from Noel/Justice of DCPH last year. He was one of the victims of Typhoon Ondoy that flooded Metro Manila. More than half of the height of these cabinets were submerged in muddy water. When Noel decided to transfer to another house, he sold these 2 cabinets since it would be hard for him to transport them. I got them since November 2009 but I only had time to set them up yesterday (January 23, 2010).

2 units 2nd hand glass cabinets with aluminum frames at the left...



It was very hard to decide which theme in my collection will be displayed. I finally decided on relocating my Batcave (Assorted Batman Collection) into one of the four areas.

Here are photos during and after the set up:

checking and adjusting the levels of the shelves using a Mopari Acrylic Display unit and 12" Batman Statues...







after 2 hrs of experimenting display layouts, cleaning and wiping dusts off the pieces, I'M DONE!!!









It was very tiring but I was very happy with the outcome.



By the way, This is just 1 area out of the 4 vacant display areas. Another area will also contain more batman pieces, I still have more Batman action figures, statues and Batmobiles waiting to be opened and relocated from the old display cabinet.

Hope I can find the time again next week.
Thanks for viewing! =)
