The nerdy side of DIY

This guy is a complete genius when it comes to taking ordinary memorabilia and turning them into something special.

Before this piece goes any further, it is important that certain perceptions are changed.

Action figures are not just for children. The market amongst adults is massive across the globe. Yes, maybe adult collectors do so to fill a void from their childhood - collecting the things they couldn't as a child, but the reality is that you are never too old to do the things you love.

I collect action figures and memorabilia. I love it. So don't judge me!

Australian YouTuber Cosplay Chris takes this hobby to the next level though.

The man is a genius when it comes to creating museum-quality pieces out of the most simple of toys and action figures.

His DIY and craft skills are incredible, while his passion for his hobby is a joy to behold. He really is awesome at what he does.

Here are a few of my favourite videos from the Aussie, which are sure to leave your jaw close to the floor when you see the finished article.
