Storing filecards, any good ideas?

Post by stkhlmdk »

Hi, didnt know where to post this topic so it gets entered here :)

I am planning to separate my filecards from my figures which are both currently are stored in the same zip-lock bag but I have not figured out how I should store those in a proper way. I was thinking about making a proper folder with those plastic dividers that holds photos but the size of the filecards are a bit "odd" to fit. How are you storing your filecards or have you just thought about it like me and never done any to complete the task? I have about 200-210 cards so it will be a massive task once I find a solution but properly worth it in the end :-)
Best Regards

or one of those photo albums with the very slightly sticky plastic that covers each page?

Hmm, could go for the box idea but just need to bring my tape-measurement to the local bookstore to make sure it fits :-)

As I am hardly ever looking at them, I chucked them all in a large plastic bag.

if you have the Z force base or the joe variant, there is a secret filecard storage area underneath the tank ramp.

That's actually :gaucho: 's "Secret Love Dungeon".

As for storing filecards, I've seen someone use a photo album.
strange you say that there was a set of handcuffs and a corpse in my base when i first got it.
