Storing filecards, any good ideas?

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 :-)

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.
