I recently acquired a large number of 1/72 nd scale aircraft, mostly biplanes, and I was in a quandry as to how to protect and store them.  I found Sterite plastic cases, 11 1/2" x 8" as the best solution for me.  The trick is to invert the case so that the clear bottom allows viewing of the models (accommodates 2 small planes).  The lid, now functioning as the base, has hinged locks which snap closed.  I place a piece of rubberized shelf liner in the lid to prevent the models from shifting position.  The cases stack nicely and are far cheaper (check discount stores like Big Lots) than commercial display boxes.
