Last week, I called someone nearby my father in law’s house who is selling his collection’s glass cabinets .
This man is selling 14 brand new magnificent Glass Cabinets for 120€ each. And these are just perfect to show around 400 miniatures.

After having talked to him & Gildor, I bought 2 for me & 1 for Gildor, and we obtained a price reduction to 100€ each.

Yesterday evening, I assembled 1st one. Here are some picture:

Then, I started to place my miniatures:

Interesting and with favorable price…. I plan to buy something similar, but not for mithril figures…. ( I have my special old mithirl – middle earth shelf ) …. for my 54 mm collection… This is definitely a good price indicator…..

Wow! Very nice!

Whenever I own a house again, I shall certainly consider something like this – for the more previous Mithrils at least. Everything else can stay in its carry case!

Congratulations.

I spent hours in assembling first 150 references and putting everything inside the glass cabinet.
Once every shelve is settled with minis, I will show the result. So far, it is just marvelous to me as I also unpacked around 50 blisters for the first time and discovered many fantastic details.

Happy and exhausted I am tonight.

You need to send a message to him on his personal email, Master Milo. That is how I got a hold of him. He is very busy with other things at the moment.

Master Hobbit, did you paint that mini on the top shelf in the middle? If so, then it looks real good.
