Displaying the cinemaquette Alien ?.

[uscmhicks]

I purchased a cinemaquette alien a few weeks ago and since then its been sat in my front room.
I haven't a clue what to buy to display it on . Everything seems to small and too fragile.

I am in the UK. Could anyone provide any information on what I could use to display this statue on ?.

I'm waiting on a cm predator too ... man.... this is gonna be a problem.

Where r u Trilogy?

There's no doubt that the CM Predator will cause some headaches.

The Predator will make the Alien look small, i used to pisplay both on a pedestral each. But recently i moved them unto cabinet (removed 3 levels of shelves to fit each on them on one side)

it wasn't a besta was it ?.
I'm looking into getting something ... just having trouble finding anything thats visually pleasing and will fit them in.

I don't own the statue anymore, but I had a carpenter build a stand for it, then got an acrylic display case to cover it. Seemed the best way to go, because I could have the stand made to my own specs, and display the statue in the best way possible.

Haven't got pics anymore sadly, only this one I had made at the same time for 1:1 busts. The CM one was obviously shorter and fatter! Can be painted any colour

No way the Pred fits into a besta.

I own the CM T-800 and here is how I have mine displayed. Got an acrylic case from casesforcollectibles.com and since I work at a school I had the woodshop build me this for $65 dollars. I just gave them the dimensions I needed based on the case. Still need to clean up the shelves somehow to make it look neater but I like my set up. Sorry for the mess.



I also gone made for my Predator Maquette



Shelves are closed on the back so can look like a museum quality pedestal if I want.

Your cheapest option is the Ikea LACK. It's an end table with ideal dimensions to display these maquettes. If you want to complete the look, you can acquire an acrylic display case here.

thanks for that and thanks for all the photos guys. Its appreciated.

Trilogy , are you sure you could fit a display case over the alien on this table. If you could do you mean over the table straight to the floor or over the alien and around the table top ?.
Thanks for the help.
