As soon as you have more than two or three toys (or really any collectible), you're a collector. A lot comes with that title, not least of which are issues like display space and the most hated enemy of all, dust. It's rare that a product comes along specifically targeted to collectors that's really functional and looks good at the same time, but it does happen. Take for example the APEX Action Figure & Collectibles Display Case from the guys at Smalljoes.com, a clear display case with tons of potential.

The APEX case comes shipped in a sturdy box, surrounded on all sides by styrofoam to prevent any damage. Remove the contents and you'll find three things: the large case itself, a base, and a two-tiered riser. Then the fun really begins. The case is big but not too big, sized to hold all manner of toys and other items. Include the risers for easy stacking, or go without to show off your bigger spaceships or even dioramas. And what's really awesome is that it looks great, it's portable (put it anywhere!), and it keeps out that pesky dust.

The case measures 15 ¾ inches wide (the longest dimension), 9 5/8 inches tall, and 10 ¾ inches deep. Not everything is going to fit in there, but if it was any larger it would lose its versatility and ease of movement. The case tapers by a half inch at the top, which is both aesthetically pleasing and functional because it's stackable with other APEX cases. The riser consists of two platforms 3 ½ inches deep at 2 ½ and 5 inches tall. These are great for showing off smaller items like miniatures, spaceships, and especially 3 ¾ - 4 inch figures. My Ben 10 and Star Wars figures looked really great in there.

Made of perfectly clear polystyrene, the APEX case is durable yet lightweight. It's also flexible so it'll bend but not break when you move it or, god forbid, jostle it.

The APEX case is a revolutionary product that any collector will love. The hardest thing is deciding what to put in it, but since they're stackable you can always get more and build an entire display unit of your own! You can get an APEX case with the removable base and risers for $24.99, and you can also pick up extra risers by themselves for use in other displays for only $9.99. Get yours today and start displaying with style!
