Organizing My Toys-To-Life Figures

On 02/15/2017 at 02:36 PM by KnightDriver

After I picked up Disney Infinity figures Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse at a Gamestop the other day for their clearance price of $5 each, I started organizing my Disney Infinity swag by putting them in some backpacks and shoulder bags I got at Goodwill. That got me thinking about my Skylanders. I have bags for those too but I remembered I saw some custom bags at a Five Below near me. So I went there and bought two at $5 each, one for Skylanders Giants and the other for Swap-Force. Here's a pic of the Swap-Force case which is identical to the Giants case but with different graphics:

Each holds 32 figures. I'm not sure how many Giants and Swap-Force figures I have, but it might be enough space, but maybe not. I have to go through them all, which is the fun part. I want to go through them anyway to make a list of the ones I don't have because, with all these sales getting better and better, I may pick up a few more here and there - same with Disney Infinity.

I don't look forward to carrying these Skylanders bags around in public because they are so gaudy, which is why I didn't buy these bags the first time I saw them at Five Below, but they're kind of nice to have for storage purposes.

May the BaD be with you.

Not my pic, but there they are. I dawned on me later that it was Valentine's Day.

Yea, it turned out to be so appropriate for Valentines Day.

Yeah, I wouldn't want to lug that around in public, but it's good storage. There might be a similar item without the gaudy design.

I found out one of them fit all my Swap Force figures that were swapable (the larger ones) but it didn't come close to holding all the smaller unswappable figures that came out at the same time.

Those are good storage options, a little loud for my tastes but its not marketed to me. I keep my stuff in those .99 small plastic bins. Since I don't have a lot of toy to life items I don't need a lot of bins.

Loud indeed. I passed them by the first time for that reason. I'm still not carrying them around anywhere. It's just good in my closet where, when I open it, I know exactly what's in what.

Home Depot sells Husky tool boxes with sections that would be perfect for those figures.

I should probably organize my amiibo figures. They're taking over my TV shelf!

Those would be good. I'll have to keep my eye out for them at Goodwill next time I go.

I can't imagine having all those figures. I don't know where I'd put them! They sure look cool though.

They're mostly pretty small. I get these shoulder bags from Goodwill, fill them up, then put them in the closet until I need them. These bags are kind of neat. I just hope I can get them all in.
