Default Hot wheels wall placement?

I have quite a few hot wheels and various other brand die cast cars. I would love to mount them in my office, and 90%-95% are still in the package. Has anyone thought of a clever way to mount these without using hooks? I would like to keep them in the package if possible. This has probably been discussed before, but honesty I don't even know which search strings to use. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I have used a few different things. The easiest was using a push pin in the hole or hook. No damage to the card and easy to move around. Clear push pins are not as noticeable.

After my local "AMES" store - similar to K-Mart - closed years ago, I went there and bought all the racks and the "arms" that the holes from Hot Wheels, Johnny Lightning, etc. packages slid onto, just like currently in similar stores. I have them hanging in my garage

I think this might be what you're looking for. There are a lot of choices, depending on what you want to spend.

Here's a do it yourself answer, to displaying them in the blister card.

I have a bunch of Hot Wheels cars in unopened packages that I have hung in my garage using push pins and it works well. I use the clear pins to minimize their visibility.
