Some sort of frame where you hang them? If I was smart, I would have bought 2 of everything and left one in the original package and put the other in a case, but I didn't

There's a big-box craft store near me (called Michael's) that stocks a large display board (3'x2'ish) that the Hot Wheels type carded cars slide into, which you can hang on a wall. It's cheap at around $30 Canadian so I bet that they're easily attainable in the US. Check picture frame stores and other craft stores. You may luck out!

Why would you keep your cars in original package? I never do that.

Thanks for the idea with the blister display case...I will try to track one down.

Why do I keep them in the original package? I guess if I ever wanted to sell them, they are worth more that way. They get protected from dust and scratches...or I'm just too lazy and spend too much time with my 1:1 scale '05 to open them
