I have a small window cabinet for the most important things, its a bit overrun at the top with carded figures (only holds about 4 really )



The above is how I had them, it looked ok but not all of each card was displayed (had to overlap)

Now I can put 2 on the side and have 2 in the middle , it also frees up space in the front of the shelf for something else but the side figures are hard to see unless you open the door! lol

I think I like the overlapping display the most but maybe there is a combination I haven't tried yet, I know its hard to ask for help on this when you guys don't know the size of the cabinet but maybe someone has a good idea!

Its obvious, you have out grown your cabinate, I think u should either get another or replace it with a bigger one

I dunno about good ideas-
1) line the back of the cabinet with a mirror, have the MOCs in pairs back to back on a 45 degree angle. 6 will fit on a shelf
2) get another cabinet for your non- MOCs

LOL!

Well thats not an option , just a reshuffle!

I would love a SW room tbh, I was speaking to hyver about the "need" for an arcade room as well! haha

We can only dream

That's a smart idea AJ! There is a light at the back of the top shelf, wonder if I can bodge it and remove it and see about getting some mirror back there...

Another question -

Do you think crowded cabinets work or do you like space?

If you get rid of that cabinet... I'll take it!!! It will look great in my office/collection room!!!

I'll even let you pay to ship it to me, since I know your such a nice guy!!!!!!

Here's a pic of what I did on mine before I had to move everything because of the water.



It's in no way perfect, but it allowed to open the display up a bit and "highlight" at least one MOC. My thought process on this was to allow for one "highlight" MOC that I could mess around with (mostly to give me something to tinker with every so often ) and to allow for other MOC's to be place behind it.

I'm sure I'll change it up when I put the display back together.

Wow nice run Chris! i didnt know there were that many Rebel Commando MOC variants.

Good call on the 2 MOC'd you decided to highlight in that picture Chris that Meccano ROTJ RC is awesome!!

I thought you didn't have a choice with more space. I think everyone has space issues eventually, even those with dedicated SW rooms still have things in boxes. I'm pretty sure some could have a ranch and still run out of room
