Clear acrylic risers work great in detolfs. They're very affordable (a few bucks each depending on size) and can be found all over eBay individually or in bundle packs. Here is the best pic from my collection I have to illustrate how they can be used with PFs. Eliminates some of the dead space and creates a bit of a floating effect.

I like the staggerd look!!! Cool display Hellboy!!!

Agreed on all counts, but I find that I stick with the detolfs, regardless. I have 6 and to account for the "dead space" I put my cabinets with Sideshow pieces in the middle (2 1/6 scale statue cabs, then 2 sideshow cabs, then 2 more 1/6 scale cabs) so I have some symmetry. Looks great...and is still much less expensive than buying a whole new display (Besta w/ Tomba doors)...plus the added benefit of keeping my display units consistent. Just my 2 cents.

PS...weight not an issue.

Great displays folks. The risers are interesting. They make the statues look like they are floating.

I would caution people reading this thread that many of the statues displayed are done with double glass on reinforced brackets. (just so someone doesn't accidentally break a statue trying to replicate a photo without knowing the background.)

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

I thought you don't display your statues? I've always heard you keep them in their boxes. ( changing are we)
