Display advice

Post by paul463 »

Bought a new bookcase for the garage and unsure what / how to display the collection. MOC or loose is the question!

Agreed, both! Great way to show of those super rare German's! I'm coveting your Adler.. Need to find one of those guys for my collection.

He's been in my collection for a fair few years Daniel. One of my pride and joys! Was thinking about all German on the bookcase

An all German bookcase sounds like a strong focus to me!

Hopefully an Adler won't be too far away :) TSATT is my only complete line carded and boxed.

MOC is a PITA to display. LMK if you work it out, I could use some ideas too.

As a loose only collector, my choice is obvious. To my mind you can touch and feel the figures if you display them loose.
That said, riffling through the plastic cases would be a rare treat.
Tough one... I'm going with display both!

Managed to get three on each shelf, not enough room for all of the Germans though.
