Bye saber casing

Forgot to add on...On the first day of CNY my precious casing for my favourite figurine broke T_T My cousin was in my room and he pulled down the blinds (can't see the monitor) and somehow they slipped behind my figurine casing which was just below it. There was a really strong wind then and when I was outside serving guests I heard a loud crash and glass shattering.
My worst fears were really confirmed when I went to my room T_T Of the 4 glass panels used to make the casing, 1 shattered completely into pieces, another got cracked while the other two remained ok. The plastic hold got chipped a little. What's even more heartbreaking that upon close inspection of my figurine, I realised the back of the head where the braid is got cut a little by the glass T_________________T but thankfully nothing else broke upon the fall, else I'll be so miserable.
So I've decided to add this on to my birthday wishlist: A casing for my figurine. I hate to get dust collecting on my figurine (and colour running over years of exposure), so the faster I get a casing the better. If anyone manages to get one, you can pass it to me first instead of holding on till my birthday, I'll be really grateful. I can't get back my broken casing because I bought the last piece on the shelf; it cost me a whopping 30 bucks gah. Getting a replacement for the glass doesn't make it feel like the same again. Besides the plastic got chipped and it looks ugly from top view. Thinking back, I still remember how delighted I was when I set up the whole thing and put my figurine inside; it was really perfect. The gold background really made the whole figurine shine in it's own way, ah~~~~. Oh the figurine is actually from Fate/Stay Night. She's the main heroine Saber, without her armour (this is the dress under it). I'll post a picture I took of it last time:
Not a complete picture. I wish I had taken more if I knew this would happen argh T_TWill post the dimensions for the box later. If possible do try to get the same ones like in the picture. I'll be hunting for another casing when I shop from now on. And don't tell me the saying "old stuff don't go, new stuff don't come", I hate it.
