Display Cases

[Sentry83]

Hey Everyone,
I posted these up in the Statues/props forum and had some interest and put up a for sale thread in that section, but I thought i would put up a thread here too since, you know, action figures can go in displays too lol. They are 3/16 acrylic and can be etched with whatever you want on the front. They are slot and tab assembly, so they flat pack for easy shipping and for taking apart to clean. Let me know if you're interested and I can get you a quote for them based on the size you need. I can do any size up to a max singe side of 46x35 inches, so the biggest case i could make with the tabs would be 46x35x35. Here are some pics of one's I've made for myself for a few bandai star wars models I recently built. I can do a standard black wooden base, or oak, maple or walnut. I also have black acrylic for the bottoms if you'd like that instead, or a combo.

2 things:

Could you make one to fit the HT Boba Fett standing on the skiff. And where did you get the ATST

Sure! As long as it fits those dimensions. How big would it need to be?

The AT-ST is a Bandai star wars model kit. They are super detailed and are really fun to put together. They're by the same people who make the Gundam kits. They can't legally sell them in the US, but they are really easy to get a hold of, just search for star wars bandai model on Amazon or ebay and tons will pop up. They run about $25 each unless its one of the bigger ones or uses special plastic like C3PO

Oh wow I may get the ATST, Slave 1 and snow speeder

Ok let's just say it's a 1/4 scale figure plus. What is a ballpark price

Those are all great kits. They're pretty addictive though, so fair warning. Assuming the 1/4 figure is about 17", and I figure the skiff adds another 4ish, so 22x14x14 would be about what I would think? That would be $145 plus whatever shipping would be, which would include the base and everything.

Hi, how much just for a case that holds the standard HT figure with the new bigger base using the cheapest base(whatever color it is)? Thanks.

are the new stands the star wars type ones? i would assume an 8x8x14 would fit that? one that size with the basic black base would be $50 plus shipping. I'm figuring the acylic at around .10 a square inch, so if it can go smaller it would be cheaper

Hey Everyone. I made a case for my batmobile, so thought I would throw it up here as another example.


I got some aluminum framing material and I'll be using these for construction of the bases. It looks way cleaner and professional.

Just finished one up for my romulan bird of prey model

Are the dimensions on the x-y-z format? If so what would be the estimate on a case that's 6-6-4? Do you have any bases that are particularly futuristic or scientific

Do you mean 6 inches by 4 inches? As far as futuristic bases go, I'm using black aluminum framing and i could use gloss black acrylic with it. Let me know what you have in mind, I'd love to do something unique!

Exactly, it would be 6 tall and wide, and 4 deep.

Awesome. It's a metal earth model from Halo 5, and I really don't mind in the end. I just wondered if you had any metals or silvers.

If you are still offering these come September, I will be in touch. Looking to finally display my 1/4-scale Mark 43 figure and these look very convenient and relatively affordable.

 

[amstel]

Yeah I'll definitely need one for my 1/4 Jason Voorhees Premium Format. Can that be possible to make for it? Let me know. Thanks!

With the regular stuff, it would be about $25 plus shipping. I can get in silver framing material, but I'd have to check to see how that would affect the price.

Absolutely! I just made one for another member for his 1/4 scale boba fett.

Awesome! I wonder if you can make them in distressed wood frames? You know like the cabins at Crystal Lake in the films. Lol! If not, that is okay.

Oh Yeah! Sweet! I have tons of wood around the shop. I could definitely do that.
