Seriously, who doesn’t love Lego pieces?! My favorites are the minifigures because they can look unique and have some crazy details, particularly the superhero minifigs (my favorites!).  My son designed this Lego minifig display cabinet when he was eight years old.  When I say design, I truly mean it.  All of the dimensions, the divider, the distances between the shelves, the inlayed Lego plates…all of it was designed by an eight year old and I find that fascinating because it works!  The spacing and utility is spot on.

This cabinet is made from walnut and holds an unbelievable amount of minifigs.  The bottom shelf is extra tall so big figures can fit.  One of the most important things for us was ensuring that the shelves are removable so figures can be added and removed easily.
