Display Options for 1/3 Scale Statues

[Wurmtongue]

Depending on where you live I would check the phone book (if they still exist), or the web, I lived in Portland Oregon and had the Cinemaquettes. I found a plastics manufacture there. They took the dimensions I gave them and made me two 3/8 in plexi glass display cubes with my choice of mirrored or black plexi finish. They are kinda expensive, but they were awesome. I sold my Cinemaquettes before I left, couldn't find anyone to even give the cubes to, so I threw them away....

It's not just for securing the longevity of as Statue but the museum quality you get when displaying it insiDe a special cabinet.

I'll most likely follow the same route as in my busts, i'll buy a csutom made acrylic cases ,enhanced with UV protection.

I've used it for my HCG TDK Batman bust and is perfect, this bust is huge and the bigger in size to my collection, i bet the 1/3 scale will be in equal height, width and depth. I prefer the acrylic cases because you can view from every angle and side, unlike the besta which enclose the statue.

I like how that looks.

I can't seem to find that do you happen to have a link?

Alright cool I'll check that out.

My original plan was to buy several of these 30" pedestals (14" square)




but that got blown to hell since they discontinued them. They only have the 42" one now, which I think might be too tall for these pieces.

I have a few of these pedestals and really like them. They are fairly inexpensive, really well made, and come in various heights. I plan to use them for the Prime 1 pieces that I am adding to my collection.

Not bad. I might look into these. Has there been any hard numbers on the base dimensions for the AK line yet? I see these pedestals are 15.5" in diameter. I would think that's enough, but I'm not sure.

Personally, I don't think they're modern enough.

No word on base dimensions yet.
