What are good cases to store cars in?

I'm having a bit of a dilemma now, as I've run out of space in my car cases. I've looked at a lot of different organizer bins, but none seem to fit my cars to the extent that I want to. Swifty posted his collection a while ago, and his cases looked perfect. But, I looked online and they don't make that type of case anymore.

With that said, any suggestions for cases that are easily buyable at retail stores?

Thanks for the help!

I assume you are talking about loose cars....HOT-CASES with inserts! 108 to a case! I am converting all of my loose cars to them. No dust, not dirt, no chips from banging around.
For carded cars, HOT CASES without inserts as well.
Best thing is you can mix carded and loose cars with inserts in the same case!

Never seen Hot Cases, Wonder where they would be sold.

The Plano cases the my Wallys carries went from being able to put cars across top three, they moved the points where you can put the dividers. You can still get 4 across but you will need to remove 2 of the divider and just leave 1 in the middle. If you take out all the dividers you can usually get 5 across, but teh will be bumper to bumper.

Lately I have been buying the Duratech cases from Dollarama, you end up with a small section on each row, but at 3$ each they are the best bargain around my area.

You can only buy HOT-CASES online from the link I attached. They arent sold in stores! They also have a great portable loose car case that holds 24cars that's a must for me when I go to any show!
Unfortunately we dont have DOLLARAMA stores in my area, any pics of that case?
