I've wanted to do this for quite some time now and i have finally gotten around to doing it! This is a not so quick tour of my wannabe lego studio!
About this creation

Let's start up here. This is the drawer i keep all my pins, rods, and other technic connectors.

this is the home of large transparent pieces.

My minifigure parts are stored in these three drawers. The farthest is heads, the middle is bodies, and the closest is legs.

This drawer is full of various minifigure accessories, such as hair, helmets, tools, weapons, etc.

Here is my small transparent pieces.

And foliage(trees, seaweed, flowers, you know greenery)

This is where i keep my orange.

And brown.

And tan.

I've just recently started doing this, so here is my grey and dark grey tiles.

This box is full of all my white parts.

This tackle box has different stuff in it all the time depending on what I'm currently working on. Right now it's home to various grey pieces.

Here's my collection of green pieces. Of coarse this is not including plants.

Here we have yellow.

And a box of red.

And look yet another box! This one's full of blue.

And yup, you guessed it, another box! This time it's dark grey(or dark bley, whatever tickles your fancy).

And this huge box was once home to the limited edition ultimate dume set, complete with exclusive mask! Now it's filled with grey pieces.

This container is where i keep all my train tracks.

Here is where i keep my less abundant colors, like pink, turquoise, and purple.
If you think this is pathetic, wait until you see my collection of light blue.

This is all my black pieces.

I have no idea what these things are actually called but i call them spacers.

Now for the colors that i rarely use! First off is the sand colors. I've got sand brown, blue, red and green.

Here are the darker colors like dark red, dark blue, and dark green.

And now we have lime green, light blue(i've REALLY got to order some more of this color), and orange brown.

And finally is my bin of random train parts. Motors, wheels, remotes... you name it, it's in there!

WAIT! where are you going! I still have to go through my technic! Don't worry, i'm almost done. Here is all my black and dark grey.

My transparent technic stuff.

All my silver parts go in here.

Then we have grey, tan, light blue, brown, blue, and gold.

Then green, dark green, lime green, yellow, red, and dark red.

And white, metallic blue, dark blue, orange brown, and orange.

And finally(thank god!) heads(i didn't know where else to put these) and disks/spinners and other stuff like that. Still with me? Well anyway, thanks for wasting half an hour of your day that you won't ever get back, reading through this incredibly long post! I promise i won't do another one of these for a while, and i also promise that when i DO... do another one of these it will be a LOT longer :)

WOW! that's alot of lego pieces! just a quick question, is all of your lego sets dismantaled or is that not all your lego? |

You will wake up one morning to find that you have been robbed of all your legos. Even your pitiful amount of light blue (You really should order more, i find them excellent to balance a color shceme:)) |

Are you entering the MOCathlon? Do you already have 2 AFOLs in your group if you even have one? (btw although your collection is 4-5 times mine you gave me some good sorting ideas, thx)
Unfortunately I have already teamed up with Robo-Man for this. I was one of the first ten people to sign up so I kind of jumped the gun :) I'm glad my sorting was helpful. I always thought it was a bit chaotic but judging from the reactions I'm getting, it must not be that bad :P |

hey, in the yellow box, is that a piece of a late 1990's/early 2000's naboo n-1 starfighter? also i recognized some rahkshi pieces, and some lego dinosaur pieces too! :D sorry i have a lot of em hehe
Those are actually from an old underwater theme(i forget the name of it). I surprisingly never bought the naboo N-1 starfighter. |

So when you go out and buy lego set/s you sort the pieces into your collection right away? or do you actually build them?
I usually get the set home, throw it together, put it up on my shelf, Then i go get something to eat. When the tank is full i rip the set apart and sort everything out. It almost always happens in that order :) |

Not a bad collection. I finally found someone else who stores Lego parts in Bionicle canisters. The only problem with them is you always have to dump the contents out to find the peices you want. Anyway you have more peices than me in every area(yes even light blues) but I bet you don't have a Jango Fett minifig! |

Awesome looking collection! Have you ever thought of inventorying it on a site like Peeron of Brickset? If you did that, you'd be able to see your total piece count =)
i actually started using brickstore a couple months back. i think i've got 26 pieces cataloged right now. If i keep going at this pace, i think i will have my entire collection cataloged by 2096 at the earliest, that is if i don't buy anymore lego until then :) |

Nice collection and organizational skills you got going on there. One thing I noticed is that in your bley, you actually have two colors mixed. I won't get in to symantics of what name is what color, but I call them Bley and Brey. Bley is the dark blueish grey and Brey (remember, to me, not official names) is that dark grey that has the brownish tinge to it. I've found that accidentially mixing these parts in a moc can have disasterous effects... to the four people who notice. HAHAHA Just thought I'd weigh in my two cents. You look like you're off to a great start on your collection! Keep it up! ~ Chris. |
