As you do not intend to fill with fluids and that they are just display pieces I would open the bottoms, dolly out what you can, maybe invest some time in making male/female dies from MDF and a pipe with the corner edge radius to press out the corners. Devcon epoxy the bottoms back in place (or solder).

That's what I'd do. Or if they fill bins in such a way that the banged in parts don't show I'd be OK with that too.
