1 VF-1 2NV Posted September 20, 2003 Posted September 20, 2003 A handful of MW members recently purchased some display stands form sithlord. Could you guys and gals share pictures or descriptions on how you display your valks on those display stands? Personally, I like this pic the best. No it's not mine, but someone else. Quote
Mr March Posted September 20, 2003 Posted September 20, 2003 I want to buy those display stands. Are those a personal creation made by sithlord and sold privately or can I purchase them somewhere else? I would love to have one of those stands for my 1/48 Yammies. Quote
twinmoons Posted September 20, 2003 Posted September 20, 2003 You can pick them up from s i t h l o r d. Also, we will be carrying them in our store as well. I believe Kevin at the Valk Exchange is also carrying them. These stands are awesome! Quote
Mr.Sci-Fi Posted September 20, 2003 Posted September 20, 2003 Yeah if your wanting alot of them you could bulk rate from the manufacturer. Quote
cube Posted September 20, 2003 Posted September 20, 2003 I may have to get one of those stands eventually to display my Elint in flight mode...The deely-boppers hang down too far for it to work with the gear down. Quote
Batou Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 I may have to get one of those stands eventually to display my Elint in flight mode...The deely-boppers hang down too far for it to work with the gear down. I was just thinking the exact same thing. That, and I want one of my newly FAST-pack loaded 1/48's in fighter mode with the gear up. I may just pick up a few of these ... Quote
motley Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 well i didn't get mine recently, but i have a couple pics i posted back when i got mine. i only have one stand, but i'm seriously considering getting several more, especially for the elint. currently my stand is supporting my VF-11 FP.

PC Valkyrie Posted September 22, 2003 Posted September 22, 2003 At Kevin's Valk Exchange, he is selling both 4" and 6" stands. I plan to use them to display both 1/60 and 1/48 Yamato valks. I've ordered four 4" stands. Any advantage for the 6" stands, other than elevating the valks 2" higher over the base? Quote
Etrigan Posted September 22, 2003 Posted September 22, 2003 The rods are interchangeable and some dynamic poses require a combination of rod lengths. Other than that, I suppose shorter stands are rated to carry heavier weights. Quote
Graham Posted September 22, 2003 Posted September 22, 2003 The stands are great. I bought 3 from s i t h l o r d and cannot recommend them highly enough. My stands are currently being used to display: - 1) 1/48 VF-1A Hikaru w/FPs, fighter mode w/gear up. 2) 1/60 VE-1 fighter mode w/gear up. 3) 1/72 VF-19A fighter mode w/gear up. Graham Quote

rocco_77 Posted September 22, 2003 Posted September 22, 2003 I also purchased three of the stand from Sith... They are truely awesome... I don't have them displaying anything now though... I didn't realize they had the six inch ones! Is there a way just to order the 6 inch rods to interchange with the 4 inch? It would have been cool to pay a little more for each stand and get a set of each length rod... Any chance of this happening?? Please?? Quote
kidkorrupt Posted September 22, 2003 Posted September 22, 2003 that first picture of a valkyrie in mid-transformation is awesome. can the person who came up with it give a shout here? i dont think i've ever seen a valkyrie posed like that Quote
Anubis Posted September 22, 2003 Posted September 22, 2003 I have 2 regular stands right now, and two SS stands on the way. When the other two come I'll have Reg - 1/48 VF-1A Hikaru w/ Fast Packs SS - VF-11B FP Reg - YF-21 flying along side an SS VF-19A all in fighter mode of course. I'll try to get some pics after the stands arrive. Quote

It was from his original thread way back. He also had a good one with a VF-11 holding up a YF-21 just like in Macross Plus. Quote

Graham Graham. Do you have the stands with 4" rods or 6" rods? My display stands are all the 4" version. Until I read this thread, I didn't even know there was a 6" version available. Naughty s i t h l o r d for not telling me. If the rods are interchangeable, I would't mind getting a few 6" rods. Graham Quote
Etrigan Posted September 23, 2003 Posted September 23, 2003 (edited) There's actually three current styles: 6" rods, square base. 4" rods, square base. 2.5" rods, square base. Future models will be available with circular bases. The creator's webpage is: http://www.mycreativedisplays.com/ Edited September 23, 2003 by Etrigan Quote
UN Spacy Posted September 23, 2003 Posted September 23, 2003 I just got my two set's of DLL's from da sithlord today. Sorry about the sub par pics...... Quote
Etrigan Posted September 23, 2003 Posted September 23, 2003 Those rods look overstressed; like they're about ready to snap. What weight are the DLL's rated at? Quote
recon Posted September 23, 2003 Posted September 23, 2003 I just got my two set's of DLL's from da sithlord today. Sorry about the sub par pics...... Nice pictures UNSpacy, but its looks kinda in a precarious position. I wouldnt want my 1/48s to be that high up in the air for the fear of falling down. Maybe i would just consider getting the regular ones for my 1/48s. Cheers Quote
memphis Posted September 23, 2003 Posted September 23, 2003 The first picture is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!! and the stand also!!!!!!! Quote
Guppy Posted September 27, 2003 Posted September 27, 2003 I got my stands - thanks eric! Here's my 1/48's on em MPC custom MG Zeta a1 I took some cool shots of 1/60 battroids on the stands defying gravity - but my battery ran out before I could get them onto the computer. Quote
ZorClone Posted September 27, 2003 Posted September 27, 2003 ahhh! these guys are here in Houston, but an hour away from me! arg.. Quote
robokochan Posted September 27, 2003 Posted September 27, 2003 I'm making great use of mine. Thanks Sithlord..my VE-1 has a new home! Quote
rdenham Posted September 27, 2003 Posted September 27, 2003 (edited) In Two weeks there is going to a be a Flexidisplay with a round base; it will come in 2 sizes, 2 1/2 in & 4 in rods. Guppy I love your pic's, can't wait to see what you did with your 1/60's. Could you also take a couple more 1/48 pictures. I debating if I should buy these stands for my valks & your pic'c have sold me. Edited September 27, 2003 by rdenham Quote

But the one with the round base will come either with 2-1/2" or 4" rods. It would be unstable with the 6" rods. Quote
robokochan Posted September 28, 2003 Posted September 28, 2003 man I am seriously considering getting more of these! great pics Sithlord! Quote
Guppy Posted September 28, 2003 Posted September 28, 2003 more pics - I only spent a few seconds posing these toys - these stands are really secure. 1/60's: 1S (with a hasegawa head) and a blurry max vf 19a alpha squadron and the chogokin phoenix PS - hey mods, if I'm taking up too much MW bandwith I can take these pics off! Quote
Guppy Posted September 28, 2003 Posted September 28, 2003 Oh - rdenham, here's a couple of 1/48's for ya! Notice how even with a 1/48 you can 'lean' it and it will still be stable on the display stand. Ok. no more pics.. I promise! Quote
twinmoons Posted September 28, 2003 Posted September 28, 2003 Wow, those are some awesome pics! I love that one of Max in battroid mode with the dual gunpods. Sa-weeet! Quote
imode Posted September 28, 2003 Posted September 28, 2003 more pics - I only spent a few seconds posing these toys - these stands are really secure.1/60's: 1S (with a hasegawa head) and a blurry max Ahh... hasegawa head. No wonder. I was looking at that and I was thinking, "man, those 1/60 heads are ridiculously small" Quote
Caufield Posted September 28, 2003 Posted September 28, 2003 does anyone have a pic of a 1/60 Elint on one of the stands? please post it Quote
