Figure Storage

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 >_>

wow, that's preety organized & neat !!! o.O all my anime figures still undisplayed, in their boxes.. sigh. Must wait till we get our own house to buy a huge display shelves >.<

Cool way to keep your figmas and nendoroids... I remembered someone had posted similiar post last week...
Usually I keep my stuff in their original box.

dayem. i stuff the spare parts into their boxes, which i in turn stuff into my cupboards. dayem. must get organised.

i need one of those for all my Gundam weapons and accessories. its a pain having to break out the boxes when re-posing them with different gear.

Great idea. I've been looking for a nendoroid case forever =/ I have over 18 and in a crappy spot >_<

I keep all the extra pieces in the original boxes. It's way cleaner that way.

I put it in the box where my cd are..

ooh.. I do. :D very convenient actually.

Not like that, but they all have their own little bag lol

Haha I do the same ^^

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.

hmmm I should try to see if I can find a case like this from Daiso ^^;

I keep all their extras in their boxes, but its been taking up a lot of room lately. Perhaps I should do the same as well.

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

My figure's parts are all put neatly away.... kind of! ^_^;

Mine are in a bag next to the rest of my figures.

Well, I don't have any storage thing...
I keep my figma parts in a small bag...
I need better storage...

i'd probably just put them back in the box they came in...until i find a nice storage unit...

Have them in original boxes. dont play around with all the extra parts or change their poses very often.

I got all my figma ones in bags labeled and stored in a box. As for other figures I don't have that many other kinds yet but eventually I'll be looking for a way to store their parts as well.

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

Wow, great idea!
I only had one Figma, so I didn't really need anything like that... but with my last loot, I started to think on a way of organizing the extra stuff.
That's the way! Thanks for the idea... :D

Thought of that, but don't have enough parts just yet to justify this. But in the future surely.

I still find this a tad creepy, with heads and hands in boxes. Good idea though. xD

My Figma pieces are inside their original boxes, so all is easy to find, my mayor issue is the space that boxes use :S

I don't have figmas or nedoroids. I hope to own a few nendoroids someday though, and when I do, I may opt for such a case option

Great ! I don't need any case, Haruhi-chan is the only figma I got :P

Organize beads like that. Well, the ones not on strings. I imagine the heads make it look a bit macabre if you see it in the dark.

So far, all of my purchased figures are inside their boxes and never removed from their boxes ^^;;;

I don't do that for figmas.

I just like them in their boxes so I remember what parts they have. I fear putting them in separate containers will make me eventually forget what parts they have

I have a small container like the one pictured above. I will need a larger one soon ^^

I store all my extra parts in boxes like seen on the foto
but these you can pull oud the sides to make the space bigger

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.

That's pretty neat!
I store mine in the resealable figma bags, or ziploc bags and put them inside a box.
I might consider getting a container similar to that.

time to go to the hardware store!

Now that's a creative and convenient idea to store spare/individual parts for some figures i have around my room.
I like to stay organized while being neat at the same time so a similar box is a most have for me.

I have something like that filled with spare diecast car parts and now I even have a bit of revoltech spares tossed in for good measure as well.

Since I have 1 Figma and 1 Shinki, that's already too many parts laying around ^^;
I'm hoping to buy a little case like this sometime :D

That's... way too tidy o_o

bleh being a control freak, if i were an avid figurine collector, i would do the same!

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 personally place all my Figma accessories in their bags, and pack all the bags neatly into a box. It takes up very little space this way and is pretty convenient.

I used to collect pinky street and I always used a box like this to store parts. when I manage to get a hold of some figma's and nendo's I will do the same.

It looks like he/she kill his/her figures and separates their body into pieces >.<

Keep all my parts in seperate ziploc bags and store 'em in a box.

hmm, Still have the proble with painting transfer with this boxes :/

I used the gashapon ball to keep my figure parts.

yup, it's easier than in the figma zipbag.

i throw mine all into a gundam box. ^^;

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

Not that neat, but I also have a box to keep the figure parts

Wow that is such a good idea. I have tons of spare wapons that I need to keep track of.... most of them are actually already lost...

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.

No figmas yet for me T_T, going to get one soon ^_^

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.

I only use either the box or original packaging...good idea to store it like that...will try to look for one...

all my spare parts are kept in its original box.

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 keep in their bags inside a plastic box.

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 still keep mine in the original boxes. One reason why Iam running outta space at home lol. =D
I never separate parts, but that image there kinda gives me an 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.

Reminds me of the graveyard for the EVAs in Evangelion.

hahah sure it does

Wow that sure was neat...

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!

great idea :)

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

That actually looks very very nice. I should go look in stores for a plastic compartment box like that one.

mmmmm nope....but I should get one of this....my figma bags are starting to seem very worn because all the pose changing I do... ^_^;

Actually, i used to keep my G. I. Joe accessories in a container like this.

This person really care about his figures... They'll last longer I think!

I'm actually looking for containers like this one...but haven't seen any around yet :(

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!

Useful useful desu!

*Raises hand* I do. :p
