The Way to Display...Mini-Figures

[@questgiver2477]

I've been looking for a good way to display my ever growing minifigure collection! I like how cheap it is (Compared to Lego's 16 minifig case) and that it keeps them free from dust. Definitely going to pick one up because of this video!

[@kekambas79]

Nice! My next amazon buy! Thanks for sharing!!

[@postbeast21]

Outstanding. Thanks! I would also love to see something similar for displaying BrickHeadz. Those are major dust magnets and a display like this would be a godsend.

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Well of course you need expansion space. Mrs Hood is exactly the same!

[@kevinkoster4543]

I think every partner of a Lego collector is like that...😂😉

[@callankyree9775]

i realize it is quite randomly asking but do anyone know a good place to watch new movies online?

[@joeleugene4406]

@Callan Kyree I would suggest FlixZone. You can find it on google :)

[@TaunTaunStrikesBack]

I've been doing that for years. Welcome lol

[@davidcupra4913]

Looks great. And the black is best.

[@BrickRevolution]

Big fan of these! I had one in the brown finish but when I got them they were for model trains, happy to see they marketed them for minis!

[@GalaGade2021]

Loved it anything to keep the darn dust off them ❤️💕👍I have my display on an acrylic shelves that made for displaying nails polish but it getting dusty so I like yours frame much better 👍❤️

[@rosemwalker6992]

Looking great

[@BrickByLasse30]

so cool

[@qazwsx4273]

Really cool. Good job.

[@jamesdoble7580]

Thank you for sharing that I am going to buy one also!

[@dd_zzero6827]

Great info on cases Alex. Thank you. Hey, I just wanted to also congratulate you on your explosion in views lately. It is truly amazing how many views you get compared to your subs. It is unreal that your ratio of views to subs blows away Jang. Great job!

[@alexnunes]

Thanks for the comment. I am not too familiar with the ratios so that is good to know. I must be doing something right, I guess. I'll just keep doing what I am doing. Appreciate it!

[@buddylee6996]

Looks awesome Alex!

[@clunky4584]

Nice vid

[@elitetoasterv2306]

Ima try to make a diy case that has led lights and they activate when someone walks by it.

[@Messi10HDofficial]

That would be amazing. Lmk if you find some lights like that.

[@elitetoasterv2306]

@@Messi10HDofficial well there aren’t lights like that but you could connect led lights to a sensor.

[@andrealovato3331]

Amazing! 🤩👍

I bought a golf ball display case shelf at goodwill and added some of the cheap sticky strip block rubber along each shelf. Total cost $10.

[@whoasked8771]

True

[@alienbricks3823]

thank you, I'll get one for sure...

[@yaron8069]

Should I buy the Black 3x4 Plates Minifigure Stand Tiles for my minifigs or what would u recommend?

[@winddealer1]

Great video, thanks. Was waiting for the bit where the internal dimensions were discussed for a single shelf. Any chance you can give us a hint about the internal dimensions? Inches/centimeters.... ? In particular the Depth would be good to know. The reason for the ask is that many minifigures include accessories such as backpacks, tails, wings etc. If any, what minifigs did NOT fit on a shelf without first being modified/accessory removed? Gratefully

[@alexnunes]

I missed that, darn it. The shelves are 3 inches high and a little over 1.5 inches deep.

[@winddealer1]

@@alexnunes Thank you. To reiterate, was it necessary to alter any of the minifigs in order to have them fit on the shelf. Is 1.5" enough to keep the tails and other appendages on the figure?

[@alexnunes]

I did not need to modify any of the figs to fit. I dont think figs like thanos would fit though.

[@winddealer1]

@@alexnunes Thanks Alex. You found a great solution.

[@rikpant]

I always love how wifes react to "expand lego collection"

[@Mrbtai]

Could you not turn the other way so the glass panel will flip downwards instead of upwards? It looks so troublesome lifting every single moment... Otherwise, great stuff and good price.

[@alexnunes]

It has built in hooks on the back so there is only one option. I did find it annoying, but it does save it from an accidental fall.

[@Mrbtai]

@@alexnunes Maybe get a lid support hinge in the near future, I know I'll be getting one.

[@thegoatishere5131]

It's really nice, but I've looked it up and I can only find it for 374$ CAD, when apparently yours was only 142$ CAD. I'd love to get it but there's no way I'd spend 200+, any idea as to why? (I was looking at mahogany, the other two were out of stock)

[@nexern3211]

Think i prefer display cases that i can place in a shelf or a table for example but this was pretty cool 👍

[@shelflifelego]

Does Medusa and or Marge Simpson fit?

[@goatellbeckham1816]

How heavy are these massive display cases? Do they have to be drilled into the studs or will drywall support it? For reference I am looking to get the 100 minifigure one from idisplayit which i think is 22 pounds.

[@zandercatznadercat6876]

I haven't weighed mine, but I would definitely recommend using screws, i dont think any other method would last in the long term, hope that helps 🫶🏼

[@JohnDaileyy]

Great video

[@BrianMohrFla]

Hello where did you get the framed lego and brick pictures?

[@ken2tintoo]

That does look great! Beats getting the shadow boxes from Michaels and putting in the tiers. How many studs deep, wide, and high per row? Thanks!

[@alexnunes]

Thanks, it seems like a better option. It is about 5 studs deep, 3 inches tall for each row.

[@angelmercado1014]

Would a Jabba the Hut minifig fit there?

[@alexnunes]

I am not sure. I don't have Jabba so I can't test this out. It would be a close

[@Hazel7608]

How many lego minifigures can fit across 1 row with they are spaced 2 studs apart?

[@wikbriks5753]

awesome video, link the display on amazon cause i want one ! ✌️

[@rudibohland344]

Hey is there a link to the display case that was before the light my bricks display? I really like that one.

[@alexnunes]

I added it to the description.

[@rudibohland344]

@@alexnunes thank you!!!

[@healthnut3165]

What did you use to step the mini figs on?

[@alexnunes]

They are mostly on the 3x4 plates that come with the minifig series, I also buy extras online. I also create my own stands using several black plates.

[@healthnut3165]

@@alexnunes thanks. Thinking of doung the same thing

[@WordsOfTheTeacher]

Dang, that amazon thing is exactly what I need! But it's not available at the link anymore, anyone happen to know if it's being sold elsewhere? Been struggling to find the right thing for me

[@johnnycooker5298]

Hey Alex, late to the game on this one but came across your vid on my search for the same solution. Looked at the UK one buts its more $ but fits a 6 wide plate in it. So, living with this Amazon one now for months are you still happy with your decision and have you thought about adding rows of 4 deep plates to hold figs?

[@alexnunes]

Hello. I am still very happy with this case and I am going to be buying another soon. This one is already full. There are a lot of great options out there so maybe a cheaper one is still possible.

[@shivenchadha24]

The case is great!!! But they are kinda expensive. I find the best solution to just take a baseplate, put either 2x4 plates or the minifigure stand pieces on the baseplate. I actually took this idea from Jangbricks

[@LG-jt3lr]

I did that too but when I dust them pieces fall off or the minifigs. It's annoying. I'm going to buy the display case. The price is good.

[@COH2000]

Is the door glass or acrylic?

[@alexnunes]

Acrylic

[@rocketbricks5303]

I think it would be better without the glass

[@scottbaker8018]

is it possible to change the felt?

[@alexnunes]

I don't think so, not without taking it apart.

[@randomclonelieutenant1301]

I just bought this case today it will take a week to get here

[@MayoHosko]

1st view like and comment. I have 3 of those black minifigure display cases. If you don’t have the pieces building minifigure stands out of LEGO is really complicated

[@aaaapee]

hi can anyone link me to where i can get those exact totes in the beginning of the video? looking for those

These are Akro Mils storage drawers. I bought them on Amazon. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003TV3NL0/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I haven't thought of that, but you may be on to something. I guess it never hurts to ask.

[@LG-jt3lr]

Great video! I was searching for how to display Lego sets and this came up- which is also helpful. I'll be buying 1 or 2 once the black one is in stock 😀. I still want to find a video with suggestions about displaying the sets. Right now I'm grouping themes together and I used to include the minifigs but not anymore just to make dusting easier. I keep them separate. I just debate how spaced out sets should be so it's still visually appealing/ impressive and not look too crowded. I have a Lego room with shelving but I have tough decisions to make about what stays on display and what needs to be teared down and stored back in the box (sigh). Anyhow, keep up the great work, Alex. I enjoy your videos.

[@alexnunes]

your dilemma of what to display and what to put in storage is an issue for many of us. I have some sets I really wish I could fit in the city, but it just won't work. Good luck with the display and thanks for the comment.

If I told you how much these are currently selling for in Canada via Amazon.ca, you would have a cow. ($460 cdn....)

Yeah, the original seller doesn’t ship to Canada via amazon so it’s some weird third party reseller on the Canadian Amazon site.
