Question for those who have purchased the Trinity on Motorcycle statue...

i'm thinking about buying a rotary display for this statue (i won't receive statue till monday or tuesday), but i was wondering how stable bike is on the base. i know at SDCC 2003 they had it on a rotary display and it was totally kickass. any info you guys could give me would be appreciated. thanks.

Go ahead and do it. Will look awesome. She and the bike sits very stable on the base, even tough she's not attached to the base

I was thinking about doing the same thing with mine. And yes, she is stable enough for a turntable. I did a bit of research, and the only reasonably priced, battery-powered unit that I could find had a weight capacity of 8 lbs. http://www.sportcraftcars.com/display_turntables.htm
I don't know if this unit can handle her, so I'm still on the fence getting it. Let us know where you get your turntable.

THX, does yours have the option to plug it in the AC outlet, or just battery?

Hey Cap. Yes, my guess they all comes with the option to run in AC outlet(I might be wrong). Here's couple of pic of my small one.

Hi THX, that's awesome. I want one with the AC option so I don't need to worry about batteries. Thanks
