I've been meaning to start buying some for my SS 1/4 Luke, GG Dewback and future statues. There are quite a few dealers out there when you do a Google search, but I was wondering where some of you fellow collectors get your cases from?

So if I were to order one for the Aliens Queen bust, which size do you think I should get? 25x25x28?

BTW, my Cinemaquette Arnold looks VERY impressive in his case. wow.

Yup, everything looks better in a display case. ;)
I have all my stuff caged now( display cases or in the Detolfs), makes life much easier. I tought about caging my Alien bust, but decided to wait until I get a bigger home. My Jabba display it's already way too big for my display room!
Did you measure the Alien? If it measure 24" in any direction, then you would need a bigger case, maybe around 26" wide x 26" deep x 24" high.

A couple for you. The whole Arnold display now stands 6 feet tall! I LOVE IT.

No piece compare to my Cinemaquette Arnold. I am buying the T-X very soon and will also get a case for her. These are the best pieces there are.

Pics are just ok. It looks incredible in person. My brother flipped out tonight when he saw it.

14x14x30.

I thought it was going to be a little tight but it actually worked out perfectly.

15x15x30 may have been even better but my pedestal was 14x14 and I thought it would look better if it matched it. Like I said, it worked great.

It really is museum quality. I want more Cinemaquettes bad!

I will take more pics later this week when my better camera is returned.

T-X is next for me!

PMd you cap.

I am ordering a display case for my Aliens Queen bust now. :)

I also think I am going to visit Home Depot today and buy some wood to build a pedestal for the Aliens Queen. 42" high, 25" wide cube....that should work out perfectly. ;)

You must have struck oil.:) When is this due to ship? Would you not wait for the SS version?

Has anyone ever ordered a display case with mirror bottom or back?

I was wondering if those create good effects?

Trying to cage my T-850 now.

Consider t5he smoked Mirror for backs of cases. The std. mirror can be very bright and distracting from the pce. The Smoked mirror back "allows/requieres" the viewer to focus ion the rear in order to get the 360D...the std. mirror back forcs you to see it.
