Where to get clear plastic G1 car cases like this?

So I picked up this case with sunstreaker at the ac fig ex, it's perfect for pre-movie G1 cars and I was wondering if anyone knew where to get little clear cases similar to it?

You could always make your own from sheet plastic and a hacksaw. Then theyd always be the right size.

I think Ultra Pro makes cases for figures too, I think I saw them at the comic book store a couple weeks back.

What about improvising with hockey card plastic boxes?

I never understood the point of sealing up your toys permanently with a plastic/glass case, even for AFA, 'cause I mean it's still loose, and even if you wanted to ship it, there's nothing to prevent it from being shaken around in the box.

Almost looks like a bobble head case too...I would think Ultra did that for sure, probably for Nascar or something.

Give their website a looky loo !

Go to any hobby shop that deal with 1:24 and 1:18 diecast car models. They usually have different size of clear plastic/acrylics box for these diecast car models. The G1 Autobots in car alternate mode should be able to fit into the ones for 1:24 cars.

Thanks for the tips. Anyone know of such a car hobby shop (or anywhere to get these sorts of cases) in the downtown-beaches-southern Scarborough areas?

There's a car buffs store (not sure what's it called) across from Grey Planet in Square1. You can probably find their phone number off the web. Anyways that store has a bunch of model and die cast cars, I'm sure they could help.

Yep that one is from Michaels. They come in all shapes and sizes. I personally use them as stands in my Ikea Glass Cabinets. They work great.
