Vote away! Multiple votes are enabled, but please only vote on more than one option if your collection is significantly spread between two or more different locations. If the bulk of your collection is in one location, then please only vote on that one.
Thanks. :)

Boxed TF's galore in my room! Nowhere to put them all!
My favourites (about 30) are displayed in the loungeroom.

Mine are all in my room, basically because I'm not in a financial position to rent or own a home... yet. :o

I'm a bachelor living in a three bedroom house by myself, so I've got stuff all over the place.
One spare bedroom is pretty much a storage room for my MISB/MOSC Tfs along with other stuff I collect (sneakers, bball memorabilia, etc).
I have a display case and a bookshelf in the living room/hall way which houses some of my loose figures.
Then the rest of the loose stuff sits in boxes stored in plastic tubs, etc in the rumpus room.

Just moved all mine to their own room. Now I just need shelving. My MP's are on the mantle on the living room but will be moving soon so didn't bother to vote for that.
Although technically my toys can be found in front of the TV on the coffee table and in the bedroom as well. I like to play as I'm doing other things

Well, by "Transformers Collection Room" I mean any room that you exclusively use for housing your Transformers collection and nothing else. I'm assuming that you don't store anything else in there that's not part of or related to your TF collection - if so, then I'd count that as a TF collection room. :)

Or maybe Blackie's real glad to see you. ;)

I extended my house and built a room for my collection... but it also doubles as my home office. It would be great to have a room solely for a collection and nothing else but for the time being, it will do.

Since I built on and have no plans to move anywhere, there will be plenty of opportunities down the track. Maybe if we all meet up for a movie screening at Rouse Hill... ;)

I keep mine in my spare room/office. Nothing flash & there are usually one or two posed & ready on either side of my TV in the lounge.

All my stuff is in a secure toy room and is on display but some loose items are still in a plastic tub.
And I do mean its secure.....tinted window, security screen and a roller shutter on the outside and a lockable door on the inside :D

That's awesome :cool: Sounds similar to my level of security. Had a friend of mine come over to my place last Friday and he commented that the outside of my house looked like a bunker :p

Just add rocket launchers and some howitzers, a few infrared sensors and a big krypton bulb spotlight oh and sniper ports up on the roof, that'll do:D:D.
Wish I could get those roller shutters, but living with Strata means nope, nope, nope. Sigh:(

Heh, bruticus referred to my collection room as a fort... but it's just got key locks on the windows and door (and of course, the locked up Megatron display case). But that's really because it's a legal requirement in NSW... I'm surprised the Valks living in liberal WA would bolt down his collection. But I can understand why... having spent so much money on one's collection, there is peace of mind in keeping it safe.
I whinged and complained about having to upgrade the security in my collection room because of my gunformers, but having done it, I must say that it gives me peace of mind whenever I'm away from home knowing that any potential thieves have additional security measures to get through before accessing my TFs. They may take my computer, TV, DVDs etc, but they won't get my TFs! And quite frankly, they can take that other stuff... I didn't spend 27 years building my DVD collection or purchasing my TV. I've had Transformers stolen before in a burglary and it totally SUCKED having toys that you've carefully kept for 20+ years taken from you. :( But one of my best lines of defence is the baby gate at the top of the stairs -- nobody outside our family knows how to open that thing! :D The security on Tiby's collection room is intense though! No-one's getting his room unless they can forge his fingerprints!

More likely to keep your pervy Figma collection hidden :p:D. I have my own TF disaster room which I am now in the process (STILL:o) of packing everything away so I can paint the remaining 3 walls:D

They are out-growing the small unit we live in! Definitely need my own TFs/LEGO Room when we move house in future!
For now they are occupying the living room, bedroom and some boxed in the kitchen or on the top of the kitchen cabinet! :o

Most of mine are in storage, since I share a rather small apartment with my partner. I voted Study though, because the ones I do have space for here are on my desk. I rotate figures in and out of storage as I feel like it :D

I completely laughed out loud when I saw Sky Shadow's comment.
Then I started losing the ability to breathe from more laughter when I saw Blackie's reply.
Then I saw THIS COMMENT from Skywarp91... then I died- laughter overload.
HAHA!

My answer is quite complicated.
I'm currently moving so nothing is displayed, it's all in boxes. however when I'm settled in it will be the following:
I have a largeish cabinet that my wife gave me, that may be in the lounge or the study, depending on the final layout of the rooms and space allowances. I consider this a transformers exclusive display case. (this is my other)
I keep a lot of yet to be opened figures in the cupboard of the study, though the new place may require their storage in the garage.
I often have several around the lounge and the study that I fiddle with/display individually these tend to get switched on a regular basis from inside the display cabinet.
I have quite a few on display at work, though they tend to be aircraft in keeping with the aviation (http://i1123.photobucket.com/albums/l541/UltraMarginal/UltraMarginals%20phone%20pics/2011-09-16142700.jpg)theme of my job.
I clicked a few buttons.:o

There is not a room in the house without a Tf in it. (cept the garage)
They're in the roof space even.
They're comin out of the god damn walls.

Aaah, I wouldn't mind having my entire home covered in Transformers... but my Commander-in-Chief would never approve. If I were a single dude living on my own with no munchkin running around... absolutely.
In fact, for a while when I was a uni student I lived in small house where EVERY room had a toy in it. :D Then that house got broken into - thankfully none of the toys were taken... but it made me a bit wary (I moved back home shortly after that).

Yeah, I have TF cufflinks. One Autobot, one Decepticon. :)
Also, remember that you can vote on multiple options on this poll for those of you who may have your Transformers displayed across different parts of your home.

After going to all the effort of clearing out a room, buying and setting up shelves and weeks of arranging the toys on said shelves my toys are now in bags scattered all over the house. Apparently we need the room for house guests.

I have one desk that I have pretty much filled completely with figures (about one fifth transformers) now I've had to resort to placing figures in various other places in the room. I'm thinking about getting a specialized cabinet in my room for figures :)
