How do you display your assembled LEGO sets?

JetWing34

I displayed my Lego Chima set on the shelf right next to my VHS player. I don't know how, but I managed to find a way to display it.

I'm finally moving into a location with a bit more space. I've got my minifigures sorted but there are a few sets I want to display and I'm trying to find good options. I was looking through IKEA but wasn't sure where else to look into. Suggestions?

Pretty sure there's a thread just like this floating around somewhere but after a lot of searching I couldn't find it.

I display mostly everything on Ikea kallax units or on mounted shelves (mostly Ikea floating shelves). But there are certainly a lot of limits to that method - the kallax cubbies will only fit one 32x32 baseplate for instance, and this method of course does not keep things dust free which is an issue for a lot of people (I'm weird, I actually get some satisfaction from dusting, plus I don't want my stuff behind glass, I like to touch and feel and play).

I just posted some display stuff over in this thread, lots of other ideas there too.

Kallax and Billy bookcases from IKEA are popular. And if you don’t like the cubbie size in Kallax, leave out some dividers.

I've found sourcing cheap shelving on Facebook Marketplace to be the intersection of function and cost - even for Ikea shelving.  

I agree that dust is a consistent enemy and paying retail full-price for shelves with doors is nearly cost-prohibitive.  Finding some good used shelves also lowers the concern to 'ruin' them by painting or applying a secondary finish.

(If you're willing to put the time and transportation energy into saving those acquisition costs.)
