Thanks for sharing this info! $\:D/$

I thought I would share this for anyone looking to display mystery minis or Pops. The Container Store sells various shelves that work great for displaying and I found them reasonably priced. Hope this helps, I know I was looking for something comparable for a while and could not find anything reasonably priced or locally.

They also look good if you take the time and spray-paint them a darker color. I have 2- 10" shelves and 2-15" shelves. I painted one of my 15" shelves black and it looks pretty impressive; I'll take a picture when I get home and post up a comparison of the two colors.

Awesome. I would love to see pics. I was thinking about painting one of my shelves and since they're only $10, I figured it was worth the risk lol

You just have to mask off the rubber steps surface, throw down a couple layers of paint, remove the bugs that get stuck in the paint when you do it outside #-o

, and voila!

Yes, that's the one. The ones available now are too short for Pops- my daughter uses them for smaller items like Littlest Pet Shop.

I've been experimenting with making my own risers by cutting and stacking those Styrofoam insulation boards. Works well for the white Ikea Billy bookshelves.

Often, getting the right display is just as challenging (and satisfying) and the collection itself!

I'm also loving those Snoopy figures you have off to the side!

Thank you very much =)

They are from McDonalds Happy Meal well over 10 years ago; my OCD still reminds me that I missed one, haha.

Not really a display as such, wont have anywhere to put these guys til I find a new place to stay but here is my small collection so far

Finally got around to finishing the risers for my Ikea Detolf cabinet. Added lights to it as well to display some of the goodies. Looks a lot better in person. It is a bit brighter in person and not as dark as it appears in the picture.

Love Detolf cases, your display looks fantastic!

That looks amazing! I wish I had space for cabinets like that. Maybe someday!

For all the people with loose POP's on display. Do you keep the boxes or toss them? In the past I've tossed my boxes for toys and what not. I know it kills the resell value, but it also saves space. Just wondering what people do with them if they do open the POP's.

1 week in.... I'm going to try to limit myself to like 2 purchase's a week. We shall see how long that last's I also have Baby Groot and a Hulk on the way from Disney Movie Rewards. I had Never been into a Hot Topic before I found this Forum now I may be a regular in there.

I have kept all the 200+ boxes in a closet and display my Pop!s loose.

Jealous of your loot crate joker! I'm also a few weeks in. I have the same strategy as you oddly enough. Just a few a week if I can help it

Wow! It's a good thing the boxes are small. My friend saves his statue boxes in his closet. It's the fullest closet I've ever seen with empty boxes in it

What are you using as risers? Are you using those acrylic risers posted earlier from the container store?

Finally got around to grabbing a picture. I think once the weather warms up, I'm going to paint the rest of my steps to match.

Yup, that stuff is the shizzle! Regular blu-tac is pretty good as well, but the museum putty is great. It's what I'm using for the unstable figs.

Decided to bust out ALL the Pops and get them on display finally. Best way to go about this seemed to group them and then create subgroups as necessary. Literally STACKS and STACKS of Pops spread out all around the room. Scary part is, what can be seen is roughly only half! 8-[

That's sick man, I love Detolf cases too but I don't have them personally used for POP's.

Hello everyone,

I've finally found the time to take a picture of my collection in my self made wooden display cabinet (or whatever you call it in English lol

: "vitrinekast" in Dutch). Everything from glass is made by a friend who specializes in this kind of work. The lighting is customized from Ikea Dioder/Ledberg. I collect mostly (99%) GoT and Daenerys Targaryen, you gotta love Emilia Clarke

I'm still looking for the Golden version and the 3-pack edition with the Rhaegal variation.

That is a very fancy handmade display case! I also like the way the lighting is showing off all the Pops. =D>
