That is fabulous! I may have to try something similar, since she is one of my favorite figs. I don't have all of them though. Hopefully some day. I can't wait to see your next design.
Now presenting... My 2016 SDCC Superheroes!
38 new UCS MFs have been sold in the same time.
So there's proof that Construct-a-Zurg is more popular than the UCS MF. :-)
Why would you display CMFs instead of adding them to your sets/towns?
Less room needed to display.
Ideal for people that don't build but like to collect.
Ability to display on a wall.
(Not that I do it. I display them with MOCs.)
I also have a few of them populating my street as well
Same reason as @Speedman29. My layout is only the Modulars in a single line, so it's already jam packed with minifigs as-is. Leaving no room to add all the CMF's. Though a few extras are added like the Police-types in front of Fire Brigade, or the Coffee and Pizza Guy in front of Cafe Corner. With extras of certain ones kept separate for random displaying as part of holiday displays like Halloween or Christmas.
Wish I could have unlimited space for displays, but for now I would be happy just to be able to display minifigs. :-)
However, as my town keeps growing, I'll add them to the cityscape to create a more realistic (IMO) town. I don't mind overcrowding, since it's a reality for many cities.
I also use a brick-built staircase/bleacher display for my CMF's (mostly due to their bases from each package). 5 series per 32x32 baseplate, see here:
I'm still looking into other methods using bricks and baseplates, shelf or wall :)

I would be happy to help you.
Just send them to me, and I will post pictures of their happy, displayed little faces!
Poor little minifigs, in that awful garage :-(
Been a member for a while just never posted only browsed. Since the beginning of the year I've started to collect minifigs after my nephew got me a Darth Vader key ring. Anyway just a picture or two of what I've got and how I display them. Th Simpsons display is a custom made frame, the rest are just Ikea RIBBA frames.
Looking to have a go at making my own shadow box in the new year to display my expanding collection of Star Wars minifigs, just got to get my head around the design first.
I've read through all 25 pages, and look forward to seeing how other people are displaying the collections.
Thanks
LOVE ❤️ THEM.
It's a much more crowded photo!
Anyway, I don't have any of those frames/cases. I usually display my minifigs on/in/next to the sets they are part of. CMF's usually inhabit bookcases (on the shelves in front of the books) but that sometimes proofs to be most cumbersome when you need to actually get to the books etc.
Sometimes when I breakdown and put away the builds (sets or MOC) I keep certain minifigs aside (usually all from the same theme) and just put a bunch of them on a baseplate.
:-/ yes, that is indeed dust. Really need to get a brush and get them shiny and clean again. (or just include them in my project 'ziplock')
Because he could not BEHAVE.
ps.
Damn it, where is @Pitfall69 when you need him!
