    My Figma pieces are spread between being inside their original boxes or tossed into the Figma resealable bags and tucked away in a corner. I trust myself to identify it easily enough even though I've never gotten around to actually labeling the bags yet >_>

    Interesting. If I ever ditch my figma and nendoroid boxes, I could use that. I have something similar but larger. It's a large case with several drawers like the photo above. This case held my art supplies when I was in architectural design school. When I think about it more, it could hold figma. I need to investigate further.

    Organized and within arm's reach - I like. ^_^ Gonna pop over at Lowe's or Michael's tomorrow; my Dad suggested some plastic containers there with adjustable trays. If the trays can be set big enough, it would make storage of the actual Figma figures that much easier!

    If a figure has empty space at the bottom of the base I usually keep/attach the spare parts under there, assuming the parts are small enough to fit! Otherwise they stay in their boxes. XD

    That case is way too dangerous
    what if it gets knocked over?
    I use professional construction cases with lockable compartment lids for small stuff (originally made to hold different size nails)
    but with my figures I keep their spare parts all in their original boxes
    keeping nendoroid parts in something like this is Ok though

    lol, using a tackle box for fishing to store figure pieces, it's a good idea. I was thinking about it, when/if I get more figmas/nendroids I can use my spare tackle boxes for storing figure parts.
    Currently I store my spare parts inside a PSP case carrier bag which is nicely padded with small compartments (for UMD's). That stops paint transfer etc. It's quite handy too because I can carry a figma or nendroid in there too.

    I used to put all the parts of my Figmas inside the Figma bag together, but one day I found out that Koizumi's spare face was scratched by one of his shoe, leaving him a bad brown mark.
    Since then I put each painted part of my Figmas in a little plastic bag individually, and all these bags go in the Figma bag provided.

    I keep them in tiny ziploc bags and then label the bags.

    No, but I'd love something like that to keep all my figure-bits in. I have my Busou Shinki stuff in sandwich bags, same for Nendo Miku's head and bits. Haruhi's stuff is in her figma bag, and Kagami's is still in her box.

    I store those parts in the original box.
    It isn't as comfortable as having them in a case like that, but it's better than having them disordered.

    have them in their original boxes. but with the collection growing everyday i think i'll have to throw away the boxes and start something similar to this. my room is starting to look like a warehouse now with more than 20 figure boxes heaped in a corner ToT

    I just use the ziplock figma backs and label them with a Sharpie. When you only have two figmas that's more than enough organization. :P

    I like the idea of using the clear plastic box to put parts in, especially if you change parts on a regular basis. However, as I like to keep the original boxes and don't have much more room, my parts are staying in their boxes ^^
    The Figma bags are a brilliant idea.

    I place the spare parts on the bottom shelf of the detolf, along with my figures. The parts I try to hide from view by placing at the back up against the glass. I dont have a permanent storage box but I am afraid that if I leave the parts back in its original box, the box might be thrown away.

    Hmm, I might have to consider doing that. Though I do like the boxes they already come in. But they take up so much space... Ugh! Choices!

    Awww Danny, you missed Optic's original post http://www.dannychoo.com/detail/mac/eng/image/10414/Figma+Storage.html. He first posted the idea of the clear beads box for his Figma pieces.

    As for me, I have no need of it just yet but it certainly is a good idea for Figma, Nendoroid and Gundam pieces =D

    I used to do something similiar to this when I was into building models. Whenever I'd build a fight plane I never really built the armed combat version shown. I'd always build a test version by getting pics of it online and building it to replicate the test version. So I always eneded up with a mass of frames and extra pieces which I cut into sectiosn or removed form the frames and put them in compartmenst like that. I still have most of those pieces too!
