tk924 Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Curious to know how you might be displaying your mini-figs? Here's what I did with a couple of my "special" mini-figs. Black Chrome Vader and Chrome Stormtrooper. Old idea that I saw on Ebay and wanted to do them for myself. I just bought some 50-count trading card holders and printed the card backs on photo paper. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregpj Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 That looks really nice. I hadn't seen that before but it's an excellent idea. Have you done it with any others? I combo R2 C3PO would look pretty cool with the right background. BTW Welcome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seapotato Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 That looks super cool! I was thinking about displaying my figs in a shadow box picture frame. There are some really good looking ones if you Google it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a 501st Legion Clone Trooper and an old, yellow ROTJ Luke in cases like these...I just don't have any pics of those at this time.

Sandwraith Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 (edited) That is pretty cool... My Chrome Stormtrooper is still in the bag as i didn't really know what to do with it, but now i really want to do this! Otherwise some of my other figs are just displayed in those minifig display cases LEGO sells (or sold).

46andTWO Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Super cool! You should make more and try to sell them, AFOLs would eat them up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chinothegeeko Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Very cool tk! I've used this seller before http://www.ebay.com/itm/LEGO-Lord-of-the-Rings-Minifigure-Display-Case-with-Lurtz-figure-New-LOTR-/261249741091?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3cd3b2b123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wsuskee Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Does anyone know where I could buy a large wall display for minifigs? I have gotten a few of the Lego ones that hold 8 and 16 but I would like one that held closer to 100. My daughter has really taken to collecting minifigs and its time for something larger and maybe not as bulky as the Lego made ones. I know you can stack the Lego ones but its a pain to get the cover open just to remove one fig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes that is exactly what I want. I have no problem spending 100 for the case but does anyone in the US sell them so I can save on shipping?

tk924 Posted March 26, 2015 Author Share Posted March 26, 2015 Super cool! You should make more and try to sell them, AFOLs would eat them up. I thought about that, but there are others out there that are selling them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise some of my other figs are just displayed in those minifig display cases LEGO sells (or sold). My Black Chrome Vader was in a bag and my Chrome Trooper was in a package like this... I'd much rather have it displayed in a see-through protective case with the card back. Much more unique and fun to display. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tk924 Posted April 1, 2015 Author Share Posted April 1, 2015 (edited) Check out this display case for my Lego ornament. I used a large slider box for trading cards and double-sided tape under the ornament base to keep it in place.

Sandwraith Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 Thanks to tk924 i was able to replicate what he did and make a few displays myself! I didn't have any photo paper, but i did cut and glue the images to old photos i had for some rigidity, and used a drummel to obtain the 3x8 plate required to fit. These also make really cool gift ideas. My brother is a huge Boba fan, and i'll probably give him the case for a birthday or something (he has to supply his own fig of course ) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
