So, I've taken the plunge and opened my Medi Boba and Jango but these stands, does the large one go around his waist, or what?

You're better off getting a Sideshow or Hot Toys stand for your Medi figures.

Large one for the waist, small for the leg. Although honestly they don't work all that well and I'm always worried about damaging the material since they fit so tight.
I'd suggest buying a stand from a different company like Sideshow, Did or someone else. The Medicom ones, although kinda classy looking, totally suck.

Yup, Medicom stands just plain suck ass. Honestly the HT ones aren't much better or at least the ones that came with my Swann and Jack figures weren't.

I don't really like the name plaque... I know who they are, otherwise I wouldn't be buying them

I agree. Its cool and yes it does I guess make them more "adult" like but its not a feature I care to have really.

The other issue, is that the plaque actually gets in the way of foot placement... to me more trouble than its worth.

I prefer the hot toys stand for the way they look but with the SSC stand i can get better poses.

medi stands do have their uses though.
But I would not recomend them for prolonged use.

Medicom stands suck pretty bad. The good thing is that my Medicom Jango and Boba don't really need them. I use them anyway just in case but they act as more of a failsafe than providing any actual support. For Jango, I didn't use the clasp and just put the rod portion of the stand between his shoulder and jetpack so he wouldn't fall forward or back.

They would be better if they made the base just a bit bigger so you could place them with both feet on the stand with a natural stance instead of the barbie pose it presently only allows for.

If I do use them I usually have a wider stance so I don't have to worry about fitting the feet on the base.

I the like idea for Medi stands there is just not enough balance to them Like a sideshow base.
That said "I dig using the bdh for a weight and think it serves its function and looks pretty cool there."
The Transparency of the stand also works well for Boba as I have him displayed on Jabba's throne.

How well do those DiD stands work keeping figures balanced? I thought I'd read somewhere that the spine of it had a lot of give.
