Hey guys, just thought I'd join in and post pics of my collection :D

Cars
Image

Incredibles
Image

Monsters University
Image

Pirates of the Caribbean
Image

Toy Story in Space
Image

Lone Ranger
Image

Crystal Infinity
Image Image

Toybox Heroes
Image Image
Image Image

All of mine together
Image
need to make some shelves I think

And my separate section for the Crystal Infinite series with the wave 2 disc album
Image

Also here is my first custom base, the Black Pearl from Pirates of the Caribbean, i've cased its design more on the Disney Infinity style than the movie :D
Image

I've updated and altered the Black Pearl, it just felt lacking, so here are the new pics

Image Image
Image Image
Image Image

So firstly, i have added 3 cannons and the ship's wheel, I've replaced the pirate flag with a new one and added the sails.
I loved Pumpkinking27's idea of having the IN symbol on the figure placements, but I used the pirate themed one.
And finally i used a matte finish sealer to lock it all in, now it feels complete, I can take a break and let my hair down!

Finished Rapunzel's Tower from Tangled, again I went with the Disney Infinity style more, also had to warp the dimensions to fit Rapunzel without making it too big. the windows warped out of shape during the heating process :( I also have come to the conclusion i need new paintbrushes, preferably ones with fine tips...

I might finish the actual tower column, but only if they add a Flynn Rider figure, got an idea for that

Finished my Lone Ranger base, I went for the Jupiter train from the movie and game, the cart has coal n silver in it (supposed to look like that at least) I tried a new method of paper mache with this one, not sure if i am 100% happy with it, will have to keep experimenting with it :D

My most recent base, I finished this one a few weeks ago, but had to order some black lights online so I could take the photos while they glow.
For the Frozen base I tried to recapture Elsa's Ice Palace, I got the idea after seeing PumpkinKing's Wreck It Ralph base using perler beads. I used translucent ones to get the crystalline feel on the inside, and tried to make it look like snow on the outside, not 100% finished, as i've ;eft room to add another story if we get a playset piece or new figures in DI2.

Well I live in Australia, so no TRU exclusives, we only have two big game stores that get the exclusive crystals, but the rest are all available everywhere, price difference between them are about $3
