This kinda follows on from another thread, do you use those shelves to stack the new boxes of un-built kits of some of your handy work to date?
I've used several disposal routes:-
The local model shop where you also get the bonus ego boost by telling yourself you're promoting the hobby and might inspire someone to do better!
Sell for charity at local events, only gets a few quid and you have to accept that your handiwork will have a lifetime measured in minutes, but someone benefits, so more feel good factor.
Target hulks - this is a hang over from childhood - and a .22 works even better. BBC2 (UK) had a Toys program last night and the presenter sunk his model Bismark with an air rifle - been there!! I also remember the effect of a banger in and Airix HMS Hood.
I suppose the most satisfactory was the one taken by a local museum, which may prove the most lasting.
