Display Cabinets / Cases in UK

HantsGondorian86 · Aug 11, 2014

Good evening!!
Does any of my fellow UK collectors have any advice for getting hold of some already built/flat pack display cases with lighting? Looking for something pretty decent that's going to last.

Any help/advice will be greatly appreciated

Thanks
Ben

For value you can't go far wrong with Ikea Ben.
Detolf for figures and small statues, Besta for bigger pieces.
They also have decent lighting options there.

Cheers Col, I was thinking Ikea but thought it was far too obvious ha!
I've got a big Ikea cabinet but find the shelves aren't tall enough for any PF pieces like War Machine maquette etc.
We have one in Southampton so I'll have a look soon

I was in forbidden planet at the weekend and the display cabinets they have there are awesome! I want one!!!

Do you want doors? Besta cubes are good for most PFs but you won't get the likes of Apoc. & G Hulk without adjusting shelves which can be limited with doors.
No doors and they work pretty good for almost anything.

Check out 'Mamba' Show Your Shelves' thread, one of the better Besta displays.

Ah they are great

thanks!!!!
When I have quite a few more pieces I will need to look into displaying them properly!
I like the little lights above, are they already built in or customed?

They are Ikeas 'Puck' lights, I personally prefer the strip lights.
