Also, FWIW the web code cards are just slipped into YUGIOH sized Card Sleeves and sticky-tacked to the wall.

For those that didn't have their own character card (because they came in a starter kit or playset) , I just used a cropped screen cap off the infinity.disney.com character site, or for a few early ones there was a thread on this forum with custom ones made up. Having blank spots drove the obsessive-compulsive in me a little batty ;)

Totally understand about the character cards. Already making my own. Thanks for identifying the shelves. I bought a 100pk of clear sleeves (2 5/8" x 3 5/8") at the local baseball card shop for $1. They're pretty thin, and don't have any archival properties, but they'll do for now.

And for a little fun on this thread, in my collection (and in the pictures), there is one duplicate figure. I actually have a third, still new unopened in box. The first person to message me identifying it, I'll send it to you (in the US only please) for free!

Happy hunting!

I like the way you are displaying the web code cards, but the perfectionist in me is curious why Lightning McQueen and Crystal Lightning McQueen are the wrong way round.

Yeah my son pointed that out and fixed it after the photos!

You and he have a better eye than I ;-)

looking at it again, I think you had the card that came with Crystal McQueen in the right place as all the other Crystal figure pictures are of the regular figure. I am guessing the other McQueen card you have is a custom one?

We have a winner - congrats to Mickey&Maleficent for identifying the Crystal Buzz Lightyear as the duplicate.

Mickey&Maleficent, I'll send your new Crystal Buzz to you right away.
