I am an investigator by trade (intellectual property investigations, specifically). It is a direct result of reading a crap ton of Batman comics and Sherlock Holmes as a kid. Over the past couple of weeks or months (I have lost track of time) I have been diving deep into the subject of collectible storage and displays as part of Nerdlocker’s new mission. For me, it started with not having a storage solution that I liked for my Funko POPs collection (more to come on that subject later*). But I wanted to find out what other problems collectible nerds were having. I mean if we are going to be a place for your inner nerd again I needed to investigate what issues are out there. This need-to-know led me down a rabbit hole that I am still going down but I figured blogging about it would allow me to come up for air. After watching countless hours of YouTube videos, joining Facebook groups about collectibles, and reading pages of comments on what people like or don’t like about the display options available, I have learned a TON! So far I have been able to identify a couple of problems that Nerdlocker is going to tackle.
So far this is what I have noticed and I know I will uncover a lot more as time goes on. But that is the great thing about investigating the unknown, right? Let us know what you think if I am off or did I hit the nail on the head.
