Quick newbie question - I've been in the process of sorting out my SW stuff and have assembled all my old (and a handful of more recently acquired) loosies. I need about 100 of the little clear round type figure stands. Any recommended type, i.e. ProTech or another? Where best to pick these up?
Comrades, your sage advice would be very much appreciated - thanks in advance!
Cheers, Dave.
 
I use the Protech ones & have used this seller, very quick deliverey -

You can get them in black as well but I have never seen them for sale, I much prefer these to the small ones & think the figures look more natural on these rather than overhanging on the smaller type.
 
Indeed, was looking at those... I have quite a few figs and a fairly small cabinet. Although, like yourself, I prefer the look of the larger ones I don't think I'll be able to jam 'em all in on them! Maybe a mixture may be in order, bigg'uns for the pick of each figure and little'uns to pack the others in. Reassuring to see I'm looking in the right places though, cheers Frank!
 
Righto James, have saved the links kindly provided by yourself and Frank, thank you gentlemen.

Scott, that would be perfect! PM or txt me my good fellow, lovely stuff.
 
Hi dave,

I like the round stands best, but sometimes other stands are better for some figures. Because some figures have bigger holes under the feet or smaller.
Sometimes I use tape on the peg to make it bigger, because some holes on the feet is so big.

I hope you could use the info :wink:
 
Not one to hijack threads usually but I am about to on this one lol

Anyone in the UK have ONE spare Lili Ledy stand? These were sold on TIG by OZIO and on ebay by various sources, I could get one all the way from Mexico I suppose but as I only need the one I thought I would see if anyone in the UK has any spare?

They look like this:

The smaller Ledy stands aren't too good, they feel real cheap, and the peg broke off and got stuck inside the peghole of my loose Ledy stormie,
maybe the big one in Joes pic are better, they definitely look like they are a bit sturdier.
Is Ozio all sold out?

Hijack away Joe, good luck finding the LL stand you need mate.

Top tip there Pomse, nice one. Got the stands that came with that new 'vintage figure display' wotnot, they have 2 pegs on each, one big, one small, so maybe a little tape could make better use of the small pegs.
I'm in the process of sorting out my gear for a modest display, so some nice stands to stop lemming style domino nightmares are the order of the day. And to help keep the figures in decent shape of course.

All great info chaps, 'tis much appreciated!

I am Happy that I could help you :D
 
Unfortunately not mate, I sold off all my Ledy figures with their stands.

The large ones Ozio had are top quality though. People keep asking for them - it might be worth buying a load of them, I'm sure you could shift the spares easily :)
