I don't know why I just love these little boxes, but I just don't know what to do with them
I thought about maybe a hobby shop shelf stack display but, they tip over at the slightest breeze
any ideas? Am I alone on this?

I used to keep all my kit boxes, nested them when possible, and they STILL took up way too much room. A few years ago, I decided that I should just cut the lids off of them and decoupage them onto a few pieces of poster board or thin plywood and hang them on the wall. Did the cutting up, didn't hurt as much as I thought it would, but still haven't gotten around to the decoupage part of the project!

I thought that at first, but some had some pretty standard-looking shelf wear and wrinkles, so I figured they must be full size! Just build a small scale closet to stack them in!

But yeah, I love those little boxes too! I always make them, and I don't ever know what to do with them either!
Seriously though, they should include a 1:25 box so it can go with the kit and actually be in scale with it!

Those mini boxes are cool. I have a few but have been too slack to build any. Love your collection.

That's a really impressive display Bobby! I've been wanting a display case for my builds - IKEA sells a glass case that would be perfect but I didn't pick one up yet...and yours looks even better! Way cool!
