Storage for Minibots?

Hello everyone. Well it's that time again, time for me to set up another pic for my sig. Currently, I have my minibot collection out(see sig). Many of these poor souls have no packaging or bubble to go home to. Previously, I had a few in a Ziplock bag. However, now, I have quite a few more, and unless I used a gallon Ziplock bag, they will not fit.

A few months back there was a similar thread and someone used a wall mounted display case(similarly used for Hot Wheels). I don't need to display them, I need to store them.

So, the question that I ask you(fellow Seibertronians)...

Is there something that I can store a majority of these figs in that will:

A) Keep them safe and scratch free?

B) Keep them together?

C) Be large enough to add more to at a later date?


Any help would be a appreciated.

Many thanx!

Wal-Mart has cases that you can change the single storage size on for each storage area. They are about the size of the clear hot wheels cases (maybe a little bigger) and are also clear.

They come with tabs that slide into place so you make the size of each storage area in the case.

I think I’ve seen tackle boxes like that. :-?

What department would, what you're referring to, be in?

Just wrap them individually and put them in a box. Or if you don't want them wrapped, you could make some cardboard dividers for a box.

The Container Store has some amazing stuff for collectibles. A vast majority of my collection and accessories are in something I bought from them. For my minibots & cassettes, I use <a href="http://www.containerstore.com/browse/Product.jhtml?CATID=230&PRODID=71884">the 12-compartment version of this box</a> (it's the upper-most one in the picture).
