And I use the larger flat bins for my Joes and Cobra Large Armies. These hold about 130 figures if you stand them up:

I like the clear bins as I can see what teams are in each one. Of course, you should keep them out of sunlight, and store them in a dry, constant temperature place.
I used to use just Ziplock bags from the store, but I've heard stories of 25th ann. Storm Shadows starting to yellow due to the acid in the Ziplock bags. I've had no problems with the acid free bags, and some figures have been in them for years.
Hope this helps.
I do the exact same. I use the 6 art clasp lid sterilite bins from target or amazon and get zip ultra clear bags for figures. If you dont over stuff the bins the figures stay nice. Also if you get those cheap plastic garage storage shelf racks you can get 3 bins high by 4 across per shelf. So you can really keep hundreds of figures neatly. I use the larger 50 gal bins for vehicles.
