One of the most terrifying times in life at the moment is when the relatives kids come over - I have to keep em away from the Gundams and most importantly the armor.
One of the best ways to keep em quiet is to shove some sort of snack in their hand and cover their heads with stormtrooper helmets...

LOL I have the same problem when my nephews come over too, but all my stuff is pretty high off the ground so they can't reach it.  Unless of course they use a step stool when I'm not looking.  

Why isn't the one on the left putting up the customary Peace Sign (or "Bui" Sign as I like to call it)?

That's a great picture.

That's why you lock them in a room and wait until their parents pick them up.  Or if the parents are there you keep them locked up anyway and make the excuse of "Oh well... they might break one of the models... do you know how expensive those are?..." and keep rambling on so they can forget. :P

LOL, that pic is badass!

It sucks to have relatives and friends come over your house and touch everything they see. I HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE TOUCH MY MODELS!!!!!!!! They just leave them on the floor, or on my bed. Of course if you ask nicely, I can let you touch them. So to keep them from touching my models, I placed them inside a big display case. Now no one touches my gunpla.

Danny, next time they come over put on a horror flick. They'll be so scared, I bet you they will spend more time hidding than to touch you belongings! =P Tell them that the crazed man wielding a chainsaw will get them if they don't behave and listen to you, lol.

Oh yeah... on a side note, Danny you should really start a forum.

it's probably the same for almost everyone else :) I hate it when my cousins touch my manga. It seems that it's value has dropped almost immediately the minute they touch it :p 

But it's the older ones that are harder to manange, but I get the point across after a few times ^__^;

Lesson 1: Women are scary!
Lesson 2: Children are scary too! 

I don't dislike kids, but I hate it when they won't shut up and have a big mouth against us grown-ups. Seems they don't have any respect anymore like they used to have back in our days. T'is sad...

I don't know how Japanese kids are though, here kids are annoying as heck and touch everything even when they can't. *puts on scarecrow mask and "shoo"'s them away >_>

correction , ugly women are scary and kids extremely noisy 

the only way to keep them away from any model kits is simple , give them a MSiA of any gundam , that should keep em distrracted while you put your gundams safe

I don't have children so that's no problem with my collection of figures, but what scares me is that i'm gonna live with my girlfriends and she has a cat ! I really like cats, but not at home because i'm sure this cat will try to kill and eat my Mabinogi Nao or other figures that i love :/

Jsut put the warning sign written "They will kill you if you touch them!" next to the gundams and the toys, then this might scare the kits. If not, try to lock them up in to the display cupboard then the kits will not bothering them. 
Just my silly advice, enjoy.

I get the same problem with my nephews, worst part is that they're two and spoiled by their opa (Grandfather) sucks living with the parents. What I do when my nephews want to play with my robots, I either take out the godzilla plush, or I either let them play with my plush guncannon, Gm, Gundam, or Haro. they also have a large Dragon Gundam toy that I got from Toys 'R' Us

When I saw your Kiddy Troopers I just HAD to make a Star Wars card for them. I'm pretty crap with Photoshop, but I think it turned out alright.
