Re: How do you store your masks? (or wheels or discs)

Hi everyone,

Now that most of us are getting a fair amount of masks, and trying to
collect them all, how do you plan on storing/displaying them?

First, I planed to put them on the Cans where they belong to according to
the building instructions. But then I also wanted to find a soloution that
allows me to look at all masks at once. Interestingly, I had about the same
idea as Carl and planed to stack all my masks on grey baseplates. I took my
LEGO Mosaic to test it ... and ran out of the needed elements after about
four masks...

of specific Lego pieces for that (at least 72+ of it), but maybe other
people have built or used something revolutionary simple to show and store
their masks?

... however, NOW, I *am* able to show you the final version of this method,
as I just uploaded a few new images to:

http//:www.brickmaster.de/images/ !!!

If you want to know what my collection looks like, check that link! The
images show pretty accurate how the display has been constructed. Please
excuse the (again) bad image quality, but I don't have anything besides my
Mindstorms webcam, which is useful in many cases, though not perfect for
this one.

To Carl; I really didn't want too steal your idea, so I hope you trust me
that I had similar thoughts too but weren't able to realize them before.
Well, I admit I wouldn't have kept trying without your posting here, but
then again - why shouldn't everyone be able to store his masks that way?

As a side note, the Cans are still in use for my second copies of the first
bacth. Now - where will I store my third collection? Grr! I really need to
find the second batch soon, otherwise I'll have spent all my money on the
first one!

I don't like the Bionicle lids too much to store the masks on; I'd rather
have something were basically all the masks are 'staring at you' ^_-

Mee too!!

Any suggestions?

Here's the direct link:

(Oh yes, in a similar way, you may ask the same question for Roborider
wheels and Slizer/Throwbot disks; any 'constructions' for these too?)

Those are simply in their cases, but I thought about a construction as well.
It would be difficult for the disks, but pretty easy for the wheels. You'd
need lots and lots of Technic elements though...


Later,

Bye, Christian --- xTIAN.

(...) Lots of Technic elements to store wheels? To store wheels so they're "all staring at you", try putting a 1x1x1/3 round piece on the back of the wheels, and stick them all to a big grey baseplate to hang on a wall. To store disks... well... do (...) (24 years ago, 11-Mar-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)
