Displaying Minichamps 1/12

Ozz · 01-Mar-2006, 10:44

Now I have a 'collection' well 3 I thought I had better get some display cases.

So what do people on here use. I see the official Minichamps ones are on offer at £7.99 each but is there a better and cheaper alternative?

I use the same as LesPaul, made for CD's I think but look good. Makes you go and buy more models

I also have a couple of these display cases, £24.90 from Ikea, you can fit 3 Minichamps on each shelf so 9 in total

.
And yes to much of my life has been wasted being dragged around Ikea by the wife
