What To do with All Those Accessories?

[Jilm101]

Hi Just wondering What Everybody else does with the guns and swords and bits and bobs that come with your favorite transformers toys?. I have a shoe box filled with them some have been put in sandwich bags with labels others grouped with others of the same continuity but most are just loose and just rely on me to remember who they go too, is there a better way?

My collection isn't large enough for me to loose track of toys and their matching guns yet.
But yeah. I box any of them that aren't on display.

It's great when a robot can store all those accessories on them (in either mode).

I have a shoebox full of random bits of G1 robots from my childhood, and several sandwich bags full of accessories and missiles from later series that have become separated from their robots.

Similar to you I try to keep these by series so they are easier to find when needed.

Mine are stored in a metal Transformers tin (IIRC, it's the one we got a few years back for Easter) and a zip-lock bag. I've only got around 300 Transformers so there's no real urgency to develop some sort of 'inventory'. However, that may change as I get older and a lot more forgetful

i keep a shoebox size box (not actually shoebox) near my collection so i can swap out bits


my collection gets reposed or moved around every week . what good are expensive toys if you cant play with em

Missiles get lost about 50% of the time still, like I'm a giant toddler.

I'm much better with guns and swords now than I used to be though. You know, when I was like 9.

ZIP LOCK BAGS!

This. Of course, most of my accessories are on the respective toys themselves, but I use the storage system for all the ones that aren't.

That is not a bad idea!, that or like a tackle box type box i might just look into this....

@ Goki - That's actually a brilliant idea.
