Figure Stands

Post by Muton »

Now I've got a few figures, I've had the pleasure of watching them all fall off the shelf like dominoes, when one falls over. What are the best stands to use, as apparently there sre different sized holes in the shoes.
Thanks!

I find it quicker cheaper and easier to make my own.

using 3mm perspex and a 2.5mm dowel.

works for me !

be careful if you are buying tho,

there are at least 3 different sized foot holes.

old school action force are 2.5mm same as modern star wars

gi Joe jointed figures are 3.5mm

vintage star wars are 3.0mm

Im pretty much out of material at the moment,

I started out buying them but didnt like the round ones.

the ones I made are rectangular and fit perfect into my shelf scheme.

if you PM me your address I can send you one if you like, as a sample ?

they are pretty basic, but do the job.

if the one I send is ok for you let me know and I will get round to doing another batch soon

This is the seller I use, he's excellent. He sent me a variety of stands for free and I sent him a variety of legs and we settled on this being the right peg for the hole.

He always responds to PM's about odd-numbered orders too.
