Every time my wooden cabinets creak, this very thought rushes through my head. Always happens in the middle of the night then I lay there in a cold sweat, ears pricked, wide-eyed, staring at the blackness of the ceiling for several minutes (that feel like hours).

Anyone who doesn't, with that kind of collection, is not being smart.

It's usually the weld that fails before the glass, looking at the pic the top shelf glass is still intact so we are probably looking at a weld fail that brought the top shelf crashing down onto the other shelves.

Shocking!

I'm not sure of the brand of cab in the image?
..with my IKEA Detolf cab's i use steel u-clamps to support the glass shelf's, and replace the glass shelf's with double thickness glass, as IKEA Detolf glass shelf's are not designed to take the weight of some 1/4 statues. Both my Ms Marvel 1/4 and Black Widow 1/4 are located at ground level, as they are heavy!

I have spotted some on this forum who do place 1/4 statues on IKEA Detolf glass shelf's.
