All you need to know about display cases for models and miniatures

Display cases for models and miniatures are designed to protect your collections from dust and possible wear and tear.

How do you choose display cases for models and miniatures?

Display cases for miniatures

Modellers and collectors all need at least one display case for miniatures to protect their work. The choice of display case generally depends on :

  • the size of the objects to be collected
  • The number of miniatures;
  • The space available in your home;
  • Your budget.

The main purpose of a display stand is to protect the miniatures from dust and to display them. To collect your toy cars, you can opt for a Plexiglas model display case. There are plenty of Plexiglas display cases for miniatures on the market.

When selecting a display case, make sure it matches your miniatures (colour, design, etc.). You can also make your own Plexiglas display case for models. In this case, use acrylic sheets, which are :

  • Good quality ;
  • Easy to work with;
  • Available in several colours and thicknesses.

Adapt your display to the size and design of your models.
