I did this what guy suggested for shelf sag: youtube.com/watch?v=5f7_TDpswOg&list=WL&index=7

Also, used steel Hafele shelf pins and I'm think about just putting steel rails underneath the shelves too which would render the Hafele pins obsolete.

My overall takeaway is the Pax is garbage. The amount of work needed to ensure things won't collapse, the poor construction material (i.e. particleboard) and then having to put on acrylic doors too, should've just went with another solution altogether.

That's the thing though, what are the other solutions at that size?

All I can think of is custom shelving or Moducase maybe? I searched forever trying to find another shelf for some P1 pieces before ultimately opting for a PAX unit. I knew going into the purchase though that I'd have to reinforce the shelves somehow.

You can’t beat a custom set up and it’s around the same price, actually almost guaranteed to be cheaper than Moducase. Just shop around for a good carpenter.

Think I’m going to use aluminum U channel to fit over the edge of the shelf instead.

I'm trying to think about how to display the entire Batman Villian line PF from sideshow in one large grouping where Batman is in the middle and all his goons are surrounding him. The only thing I have come up with is putting two wide heavy-duty garage shelving units together from lowes and putting a black piece of fabric over the shelving. Any other cool ideas..??

But I would consider putting statues behind Batman as well. Just raised to a base.

Three levels.
The highest level for statues behind Batman
The intermediate level for Batman and for other Statue on left side and right side
The lowest level, the shelf itself, for statues in front of Batman

Similar to XM Batman Sanity

being in the tradesshow industry, we use this outfit ALOT. I just scored a few of these since the shop is trashing them (some wear and tear) and finding out the specs for weight now. https://www.displays2go.com/P-2745/G...Class&sid=1099

they have other units not so expensive. I do like these ....https://www.displays2go.com/C-30275/...t-Highlighting
.... but wish they would have them as rechargeable/USB
