Batteries...?
Mine runs on a tiny arc reactor.

Great pics fellas. So looking forward to getting mine.

On a serious note:

Mr.Sallah. Great collection, but I highly recommend not using fluorescent lighting to illuminate your collection. UV rays will damage over time. Use incandescent instead.
Peace out

I thought so. I guess I was hallucinating when I first took it out of the box. I remember thinking, "I'm gonna have to wipe that thing clean from time to time."
Then after looking closely, the ring looked like a window could snap in.
Thanks~~

Yeah, looks like you're good to go.
I don't see a clear lens over the chest reactor on any of the pics.

Interesting. I've always wondered about that.

What about LED lighting?

LED would be fine too. And the good thing about LED is that they don't produce that much heat compared to other bulb types.

Sorry for getting caught up in the lighting questions, but just one more... what about halogen lighting?

Great pics Sallah. And I love your detolf set up. My comes Thursdays, and I've got a few ideas with pics.

Very nice collection!

AMAZING collection Sallah! I love how neat and organized your collection is displayed!

Thanks fellas! I appreciate it... I did a video of my setup recently if you want to see the rest of the room- [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yr3u1rVCISc&list=UUFvd8RhSh-yghMn1Ub1ln-Q&index=6&feature=plcp"]Hot Toys Room display Video[/ame]

I really need to do an update though. I have added 2 Detolfs and made a few acquisitions since I filmed that.

Thanks for the tip! It is kinda misleading in that pic, but the light you are seeing isn't actually in the case... That is just a reflection of a light on the ceiling. I very rarely use it, I just turned it on to make the room brighter for the pictures.

Still... Even though it isn't on very often, It probably wouldn't hurt to change it out for a standard light.

Halogens will produce better light (brighter, etc). They are more energy efficent and last longer then your standard Incandescent bulb, but obviously cost more.

If you are putting them in the ceiling or track lighting, then you are good to go.

The reason you want to stay away from fluorescent bulbs (or CFLs) is because of the amount of UV that it produces. The more UV, the more damaging to colors and paint on collectibles

EDIT: found a link on Homedepot website comparing the bulbs

Thank you for the feedback and link!

LED is best above all others. Halogen lighting is far too hot. Especially if being used close to your collection.

I see that Alter Ego has charged my card, though no ship notification yet. Can't believe I've had this on pre-order since September 2011...

 

[Ron_Burgundy]

I didn't get the figure BUT we just received my Iron Monger helmet from sideshow. Horry chit! This guy is a beast..... And I love it.

I love having days off when toys arrive. I might have to go to CSC tomorrow after work and "look" at the Monger.
