IKEA Brannboll display cabinet

[rsvictor1976]

Hey guys, just wanted to share some pictures of this new Branboll hangable display cabinets from IKEA. They fit the 1/48 DX Chogokins pretty well vertically, and can probably fit a couple smaller figures horizontally. They’re only $30 and come in white or blue. There's even little cutouts on each inside corner to let you run wiring for lighting.

$30, not bad but limited space makes it not too appealing to me. Maybe I’ll get one or two to put in a corner above my detolf someday.

cool option for a horizontal display for HMR....maybe there will be some hacks to the braennboll i.e. combining/stacking....

hmm...been watching some billy ikea hacks recently with the backing removed...

thanks for the posting @rsvictor1976

And just because I’m not sure we’ve mentioned it all that often on these boards:

RIP the Detolfs cabinets.

A nice and effective way to display our “collectibles” with a few customizable options.

ikea has a way of re-releasing products over time (read years?)...so you never know..the detolfs may come back again...at a higher price...😄

And knowing them, they’ll offer it in some oddball color that doesn’t match the old ones.

Or no longer offer the LED strips I used to light up the old ones.

. . . Also, am I the only idiot that would rather go straight to where all the boxes are and get what I need, rather than walk through that maddening, multi-level labyrinth they call a store?

I'm not a fan that they go with so much particleboard on this. It relegates these to corners, and even then they are restricted view.

Never enough. The end all and be all for the price. Still worth buying secondhand vs other options.

Sporadic shattering doors when IKEA switched glass types might be why they may not.

Still, they are stupid not to bring it back...even at a higher price.

Dioder strips were discontinued.

Looks interesting, but annoying that there is still a gap for dust ingress between the two clear panels. Something that IKEA never seams to be able to solve on their various display cabinets.

Oh you're supposed to slide one over the other to close it properly. I didn't know until after I read the instructions over again. The only gap that stays open are those cable holes.

Dust and yellowing.

The two banes of collectors everywhere! 😅
