I already have display ideas. Including using the chip pieces as a bed to display a couple of different personal items. Maybe in a glass jar. There is a plastic display case that came with this, too.
I would love a follow-up set. Will keep my eyes peeled. I think this would be a great gift for a kid who shows interest in this sort of thing, as I did when I was a kid. I used to bring rocks home for my mother as gifts. That's the kind of kid who might really love this.
