Recommendations for a small display case for 1:43 cars?

[RichB]

Hi - I've been re-decorating my study and in so doing I broke the display case that kept the dust of my model TVRs. Not too bothered as it was a bit rubbish anyway! So, anyone got any suggesting where I can get a decent case for 2 x 1:43 sized model cars? Looked on eBay but all they seem to be selling is recycled Scalextric containers

Ikea? Do you plan on adding more?

Ah good shout, looks like they will have something. And, yes I may extend the collection to 3 cars but no more.

Do a Google image search for "trumpeter display cases". I've got a couple for aircraft. They do a range of sizes and are about £10 - £20. Nothing spectacular, but they do the job:



2x 1:43 cars would easily fit in one of those I think.

I've got some custom cases from "Just Bases". They are OK, but the perspex is quite thick and is folded with ends glued on to form the 'lid'. Not sure whether the smaller ones are made like this, but the joins might be quite noticable if they are.

There is an offer in either aldi or lidl for a display case.

Thanks everyone, I'll also take a look at the Lidl offer and Trumpeter. I'm sure I can find something suitable now
