    Most collectors already know about the baseball bat cases that can be used to display 3.75” action figures; but Hobby Lobby also has golf ball cases that would probably work really well for displaying LEGO mini-figures.

      Was almost on my list but only thought it was for Lego. Not figures.

    I've used hot glue for figures that don't want to stand on their included stands/props, like terrain and etc. Hot glue won't damage the figure and easily removable. However, just make sure to test the hot glue with a spare accessory and see if any paint gets removed when removing the hot glue as different brands of hot glue sticks may be more aggressive than others. Meaning, they're more stronger and bonds very, very well.

    I went straight to the ikea shelf with the glass door. Gundam kits and any toy out the box goes in it. It's the best for putting a lot in one place while keeping the dust off. And I hate dusting. Throw in a spice rack and turn on shelf into three.

    The brush is great.
    I use one to clean the dust from my LEGO.
    Due the bricks being studed the dust is hard to clean, but the brush gets the job done

    I've never heard any person say "catsup" and if I did, then I ignored it. Thanks for the balls to the walls ideas.

    I make risers to display my figures. A plexiglass clipboard from the dollar store a glass cutter and a couple glue sticks. I like them cause the light week shine thru. It's really easy and cheap. I've made 6 of them so far.

    Also a wooden milk crate from a craft store sitting sideways on a dresser looks good for larger figures.

    Those different kinds of hacks really are some hacks. The World War II expert who paid to ride in a plane and wear a uniform but never would go into the military, talks tough but has cats, wears t-shirts of a pop airhead, and probably puts blueberries on pizza kind of hack.

    I have the little drawers/compartments for hardwear.
    I'd love to put my figures behind a nice glass case, but for now, everything's in boxes.
    I'd like to get that fire escape display, that looks great! :)
    Love the Kenner shirt. :)
    Love the video, thanks for making it.

    Museum putty works for securing figures too. The fish tank is a good idea but the plastic used for toys is toxic to fish. Robo fish maybe?

    The Japanese do ingenious figure packaging where the plastic blister is the size of the card and clamps around three sides of the card, so you can just slide the card out and handle the figure and then just put it back as good as on the shelf.
    Why don't Western toy companies put that much thought into their products? Because they're lazy, greedy bastards.😡
