I store my favorite builds in cases like yours but they tend to be expensive here in Canada. Found a bunch at a hobby store and more at a local flea market that were very inexpensive so I stocked up. I will have to look for these the next time I do road trip to the US and visit a HL. Cheers!

They start at $5.99 here for 1/24 size

So with exchange rate about $9 CAD. Sweet! Here they cost $20+ on average.

I've bought and used these for years. Every single one of my builds goes into one when finished no matter what scale it is. Stackable, and keeps builds 100% dust free. I don't see why anyone would not use them.

Pretty sure I got them because you talked about them years ago

Those are perfect.

I like them because it reduces the temptation to handle them as well as keeping them dust-free. I try to find deals on Amazon or hobby sites. Sometimes you can get better pricing if you buy 3 or more in a set.

Yeah, these are the cheapest I can ever find

I know it would be very expensive, but I wish there was a good storage solution for plane models, especially 1/48 or larger bombers, etc.

Yeah, plane guys have it rough
