Old Man Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 I just put together an Ikea glass diplay case and I want to start displaying some Yamato 1/60 and 1/48 Valks. The problem is I have the case on some pretty plush carpet and there can be a little bit of a wobble if someone walks near the case, even though it's strapped to the wall. I'm not worried about Fighter mode, as I have a few display stands. My concern is in Battloid mode, where the center of gravity is high and stability is quite low. Does anybody have any suggestions? I thought about some removable "glue dots", but I'm not sure they'll do the trick or if they'll harm the paint at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m0n5t3r Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 blu-tack. i had the same concern when i first got the first of my glass display cabs... i thought of using blu-tack, but never did. so far nothing has fallen over even if i shake my cabs. but i recently displayed my v.2 M&M 1Js in b-mode and i was reminded of how tricky it is to make the v.2 VF-1 w/ FPs stand straight up.

Vifam7 Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 How about using a doll stand? Something like this: http://www.hlj.com/product/CUT20056 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunpod71 Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 (edited) How about using a doll stand? Something like this: http://www.hlj.com/product/CUT20056 Do those fit on b-mode?

m0n5t3r Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 i think he's more concerned about the glass surface being too slippery??? just like how my YF-21 keeps wanting to do a split if i try to make it stand on a glass surface... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Man Posted May 16, 2010 Author Share Posted May 16, 2010 Well, I was initially concerned about the them wobbling and falling over, but now that you mention it, I should consider them falling from the lack of grip as well. I got some "Glue Dots", but I'm a bit worried that they could damage the paint when I try to remove them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
