Hey guys, what do you store your figures in for displaying?

I've seen many people recommend the BESTA cabinets from IKEA

this is out of topic *sorry.. but any cabinet that you might recommended to display few steelbooks / limited packaging steelbooks. i've been trying to find the good one, but i don't know where to purchase. they have it online - i rather see it and go to the store. maybe ikea also carry ? any respond would be appreciated :)

I'm thinking of getting one of those Detolf cabinets and on each shelf...I'll put one collectible and two steelbooks.

Just a thought at the moment, though. If you don't have any already, you can get some stands to display your steelbooks so that they will stand up.
 
Looks pretty good Buffalo! If I had things like that at my office, I wouldn't see half of the stuff there when I came back in the office after the weekend. :(
 
thanks

This figures have been survived several months now and even some office pal kids visits also my daughters visits too, lol

nice, if only i have enough free space on my office desk :oohyeah:
 
Star Wars pwns, but too much politics for me to have stuff like that at my office, and I'm the only one at my office unless someone visits from out of state.

I'll need to get a case like that in my next place, right now I got this double door cabinet in my room and I display stuff on top of it.

Loews has white adjustible storage shelves. I try to always place a printed background on all three sides and create an environment. Have a piece of plexi glass made with edges smoothed and insert in the opening, then I don't have to do any dusting or cleaning other than light swiffering over the plexi a couple times a year. :happy: Plexi is kept in place by 4 small white plastic shelf holders.
I like these so that if I want to insert a pole or figure on the side of a display, I can use the holes like in my Matrix display. :D
My Star Wars Collection is pretty much all autographs from 2 major conventions in our city and framed displays so that don't have to do much dusting because the figures are in the frames next to the autograph from the character they played.
 
I had this made from 2 bathroom cabinets from B&Q reduced to clear £1.00 each, just made the shelves wider and installed edge lighting.
