Display case from Daiso

[sinclair 0]

While I was hunting in IOI Mall, Puchong, decided to drop into the new Daiso shop in the new wing of the complex. Maybe got HW selling at RM5?? Lol.

Anyway, after browsing a bit, saw this 2 types of display cases.

1. Square. Measurements in pic




2. Rectangle. Measurements in pic too.




I bought one of each to try out. Price? You should know, hehe.

From the side, the cases look like this.




Decided to try both out with my Drag Buses:

Ack, it is a tight fit in the rectangle case for the 2 buses. Slightly touching the edges and the 2 buses are very close to each other.




Much better fit in the square/cube case. The spacing is I think is ideal, like this case was made for your buses! hehe

With the back drop will look alot better.

Time to get my DD's out for their new home. They have been living in atrocious conditions in the darkness of a box, hehe.




Oh, no! The DD's seem to be larger than the Drag Buses. No matter how I try, I can't close the top of the rectangle display case with 2 DD's on the stand. With only 1, seems to be quite empty.






Now I try the square/cube case. Ah, like the buses, a perfect fit. Some may like more spacing, but with this compact size, I can put more on the shelf.

Ah well, looks like I will leave the Drag Buses in the rectangle case and the DD's in the square/cube case.






Conclusion : Seem to be really good value for money at RM5 each. Those who bought the Shell James Bond car for the case, these Daiso cases I think is better. A better home for your loose cars.

Quality? Look at the label, dudes - Made in Japan! I don't know how many Daiso got in stock, but those on the shelf were in limited quantity. When buying, check the transparent case coz it can scratch easily.

Yep, can put a back drop and a label too to transform the look of the case.

I believe you can fit x4 DDs side by side in the rectangle casing...save even more space on the shelf

Unfortunately, you can't. If you refer to my picture from the top of the 2 Drag Buses, you can see that you can't put the DD's side by side. The case is too thin.

Wow, if 4 cars, then more worth it. Hmm... means Daiso downsizing their products?

Eight, you can put in your Custom Dodge vans!

You can buy one square case just for your scooby van, put in a nice background and some scooby labels and it will look great!

Erm.. I'm not sure what you mean but are you referring to the DD's in the MBX cards?

Nothing special, I just rip out the blister halfway, then put in the DD. The tear is not so visible in the photo.

Those are great cases!
I need stuff like that but they're hard to come by in the big stores...
I think I'll need to check the hobby shops.
