| Hi there. I just got a large minifig display, and I’ve managed to fill it with
182 Star Wars figs. I’d like to label each one with their name and number (and
release date, though that’s pushing it), but I haven’t found an efficient and
aesthetically pleasing way to do this. Each fig is on a 3x4 plate with 4 studs,
so one issue is space; I don’t want to cover their bodies by putting a brick
in front of them. Each shelf is 3” tall, and adding anything bulky underneath
wouldn’t allow room for weapon or accessories. The second issue is how to maybe
print the info on a tile. I don’t think there is a place where I can order 182
unique stickers to put on tiles. Printing and taping or gluing is tedious and
it doesn’t look great. Has anyone found a way to accomplish this?

I don't know what your display case looks like but if there is room on the
edge of the shelf below each figure, you could put something there.

That’s a great idea! The shelves have a bit of a rounded edge, but I think I
can make something to work around that and fit btwn that and the glass door.
Thanks for the tip

Did you ever figure out the labeling of your Minifigures? I would love to see
a picture of the finished case.
