Cheap Cases?
I am just starting to get into the mystery mini craze and does anyone know where I can get some cheap mini cases of 12?

Container Store sells some small displays that hold something like 10-15 MM.

Well I meant the cases of 12 but this would help as I would need a way to display them.

The cheapest way I can think of is when Hot Topic has one of their flash sales or Hot Cash going on.

Oh sorry, honestly try to buy them wholesale from a local store or something, they generally go cheaper than trying to buy individual boxes from big box retailers.

Re: Cheap Cases?
My comic shop gives a discount for buying full cases. It basically works out to getting two Mystery Minis for free. And then they also have a points/card system that you can redeem for 20% discounts, which they let me stack on top of the case discount, so a full case costs me $56 (or $4.67 per figure). Ask around at your local comic shops and see if any of them do something similar.

I've never thought of that before. One around me is closing so they are having a sale so I should go stop buy and see if they have any left

Local comic shops are the best bet. Which mini cases are you looking for

Check GameStop for FNAF. They're on clearance for $3.97. The GameStops around here have mass quantities lying around, so you might be able to find a full case. GameStop employees can check other stores' inventories, so just hit up your closest location and ask them to find one in your area that has 12+ Mystery Minis. Good luck!

Re: Cheap Cases?
Toy Wars usually has full cases pretty cheap, and usually has an even better pre-order discount when they are first announced.

I agree on Toy Wars. I got a case of Beauty and the Beast minis for $56. I'm still waiting for them to ship, but for less than $5/mini, that's a really good deal.

Re: Cheap Cases?
Agreed! I've noticed a lot of the retailers have a ton of clearance mystery minis. Good luck in your hunt!
