you can also find some great boxes at the Container Store that I use... The are collectable boxes made to display thins inside, but they work great to set MB on... and there really not expensive...

[deaconbluezzz]

...or if you have an Office Depot nearby, they carry them as well.

[Jesse321]

This place also have a great selection of different heights and widths.

Probably enough competition in the field already, and I doubt that the profit margin on them is high enough to make it cost effective enough to even try to compete.

If there was a BD symbol on it, they would sell like hotcakes.

Actually, Danny's have the statueforum symbol on them, and while I do love statueforum, I don't want a bunch of logos on them (Bowen's or SF's) .. it distracts from the pieces IMO.

It's the equivalent of a name plate to me.

[rychehitman]

[Jesse321]

Sweet! Have you seen the new Marvel glasses?

[Jesse321]

Sweet! Have you seen the new Marvel glasses?Yeap .. not my coup of tea .. I still have to get the Flash and the Green Lantern that were broken during our move to complete this set again.

[JavOner]

I buy my risers on ebay.

http://stores.ebay.com/Laser-Creations_W0QQsspagenameZFAVQ3aFQ3aSLLRQQtZkm

[Underdog07]

Just ordered 20 of the risers. Have all my pieces now displayed and that will help finalize things.


Jesse those are the actual old school glasses, not the repros, right? I've seen some in the past so I'll give you a heads up if I locate Flash or Green Lantern. Of course I'll drink out of them before sending em to you.

Yes, those are the actual Moon Glasses put out by Pepsi in 1976.

I also have a full collection of the Marvel 7-11 Slupee Glasses in a box in my garage, I just have no room to display them all.

[JavOner]

Wow. Too many options.

I got 2" 3" 4" risers. Like this you can clear the back middle and front row of mb. Check out pic to see what i mean.

Definitely looks good. I'll see how my display turns out and might get some of varying sizes.

[armitage]

The best thing for risers IMO, is at the Container Store.
Buy the Baseball cubes and the Hockey puck cases.

[tigertank1225]

next time you guy's are in the lcs. take a look at there baseball card holder's. they come in two's. :thumbs2:

[rychehitman]

need risers?



empty babyfood jars!

[Bullseye]

Is there any risers for FS?

[rychehitman]

Bulls, I'd probably use larger jars....like Peanut butter, or pickles.

I was thinking the same thing.
It would go from :laugh: to :bawling: in a second.
However the Pringles can is pretty sturdy though.

[ickwinzs]

I can fix it if I break one, so I don't worry to much

I'm showing my "Canadian-ness" here, but I use hockey pucks for risers. They're the right size, shape, and color, and work great. The flat black blends with most of the bases so they are not as noticeable.

HAHAHAHA!!! Awesome! I may have some jelly jars I can use...

I've bought from that ebay store and they're awesome. Highly recommended.

thats not a bad idea, eh!:buttrock:

[patrickwm68]

I use clear acrylic beanie baby boxes, the kind that open in the middle. Fairly cheap on eBay for a case of 25. Split them and you have 25 tall risers and 25 short ones. No one knows the difference.

[darkestkarma]

Although the tiered acrylic stands on that Ebay sellers store were cool...the guy with the hockey puck suggestion may be onto something. The acrylics are inexpensive because they are cheap plastic. There is no weight to them and can always tip over if a piece shifts via normal walking vibrations inside a home or apartment...trust me I've had it happen. Hockey pucks have weight and are made of rubber to lessen vibration as well as hold the pieces a little with natural lack of friction. PLUS you can always meld them together with super glue to get any height desired?!?! Think about it. They are only a buck a piece where I'm from. GO RED WINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
