*sigh* I remember when I picked up Thing last year and said "oh this will look cool on my desk"... a few months later, I'm up to date on the US release & working on completing a 2nd set for customs/repaints etc
Slippery slope? understatement of the year... =)

I still haven't plunged into this addiction yet.....I've seen them at my LCS but no one I really needed. I just know when one of the one's I want shows up that I'll be in a bad way.

Adam, does CARNAGE interest you? Reason I ask is that he looks brilliant and has not been seen yet publicly but I got an image of him sent to me from EM. Maybe he will tip you over the edge :-)

More rearranging! As is so often the case, looking for one thing in the many boxes still in the basement, turned up something else -- this case I used to have some of my die-cast car models in. Not quite so "expandable" as my previous setup, but the figurines are each displayed to better advantage, and, best of all, dust free!
One concern -- a very heavy arrangement! I will live in fear of waking in the middle of the night to a tremendous (and expensive!) CRASH!

That's one sad looking hole, where the Beast is missing.

me to!
Great case.
This is ideally how I want to display my figures.
Couldn't you get some Ikea like straps and tether it to the wall for more stability, JB?

It's the vertical weight displacement that worries me, Garett.

JB are the shelves slotted into the back of the display case?
it is a fine looking piece of work and would sell very well if it is really up to the job, most collectors here in th eUK have full size display cabinets, sadly these are both expensive and take up a lot of space. :-( Shallow depth shelving like you have there is PERFECT

JB,
Find the studs in your walls (in what ever place you want to hang it) and
mount it to them. Any ol' contractor or handyman can do that in about half
an hour, tops. It won't fall from that.
I desperately need a Juggernaut.
