This is what I do when bored.
Aniko has some Watchmen figures. They aren’t so great, in that they have no articulation and can't stand up. Sally, the original Silk Spectre, is by far the worst offender. Aniko moved her (and Nite Owl II) out into the living room. I don’t know (or at least I don’t remember) why Nite Owl II was moved (she has both Nite Owls, so I have to specify!), but Sally was relocated because she fails at remaining upright.
So instead of Aniko dealing with her falling over onto the desk or keyboard or something, now Silk Spectre routinely dives off one of the DVD shelves to the floor. It's actually really annoying, since she does it almost daily. You can't even walk through the room sometimes without sending her toppling. Sometimes we get sick of putting her back and just leave her where she's fallen for a while.
Anyway, I have a couple of the Final Fantasy trading arts figures, and they’ve always lived on the DVD shelves, though they were rearranged when the Watchmen figures moved in. Reno shares the same case as Nite Owl and Silk Spectre, and I guess he got as sick of her throwing herself around as the rest of us, because he's gone and done something about it.
So, you know… I mean, it's working. She hasn't fallen over for over 36 hours, now! I guess all that was needed was the threat of violence. YOU WILL REMAIN STANDING OR I WILL MAIM YOU. (Look at her! She is terrified...) (Though, uh. You kind of fought crime for a while. Not that I'd want to take on Reno, either, mind you.)
Nite Owl is ready to pull her away if it gets out of hand, but he hasn't actually done anything yet, which leads me to the conclusion that he's seriously fed up with it, as well.
(This actually happened before we watched the movie last night, but I am only getting around to photographing and posting it now.)
