Re-arranged some things and finished my Micro Collection display case. Added a few new shelves. I love the glass case I got at Ikea - it's perfect and fits the entire set of Micros. The top-mounted light is a nice bonus Wink. Oh, and also applied UV film to the windows - I recommend this for anyone displaying loose items - sunlight is your enemy!

Top stuff there Stealthboy, some nice additions to the room. Those Ikea glass cabinets are just the job aren't they, i've got a couple of them myself for my loose vintage collection and think they look great.
Well done mate, very nice indeed.

Finally finished the glass front to my wall-mounted custom cabinet. Hinges at the top for opening the case, with an optional locking latch at the bottom.

Stealthboy,

I took some time to go through all the pics in your Picasa vintage album.

I totally enjoyed watching them: the micro collection, the custom glass cabinet with 96 loose figures, the 12-backs, the little display with C-3PO and R2-D2, etc.

The perspective of some of your pics made the scenes come to life very much. For instance the pics below.

The important question is now, how to book that room for one night? Very Happy

Thank you for sharing. Totally awesome display. The set up of the room rocks. Can't wait to see it grow even more.

Your room looks awesome! I agree with whoever said this was a 9 year old's dream room!

We haev similar cases and I also used a detolf for the Micro Collection. It really is perfect isn't it?

Well Done!

Cool setup man! I also like the last 17 you have framed with their coins. Cool idea!

Michael: What a great update to your amazing bedroom.

The finished figure case is brilliant and I can stop looking through all the photos in your picasso album. I wish I had a display room like. It the one of the best I have ever seen. It reminded me of the old palitoy advert I saw as a kid with all the ships on display in the bedroom.
