Display case options?

[Dave316]

Hi all, just checking in to see if anyone can help point me in the direction of a display case for my Mandalorian & Grogu Premium Format Sideshow statue? This is the one here:

The Mandalorian and Grogu Premium Format™ Figure by Sideshow Collectibles

The Mandalorian and Grogu Premium Format™ Figure is available at Sideshow.com for fans of the Disney+ Series Star Wars™: The Mandalorian.

www.sideshow.com

It appears that their display cases on their website won't fit this, as whilst it's a 1/4 scale, it's bigger than the regular ones. Here is their case that they have:

1/4 Scale Collectible Display Case

Show off your favorite 1/4 scale collectibles with lighted display cases for collectibles. Shop online for all your collectible figure needs.

So I'm after something similar, but will fit the larger dimensions of the Mandalorian one (dimensions are in the product link).

For bonus points, does anyone know of anywhere in Australia that does them? I imagine shipping will be insane for international, but happy to pay if it's a decent one that fits!

Cheers!
Dave

I would go with Moducase. I just put my cases up. They are wonderful Sturdy and take your collection to another level in terms of look. I had Ikea Besta and they feel cheap. I know a lot of people here like them but for me..they were a step up from cardboard. The Moducase is expensive and take a while to get. If you want quick and cheap go with ikea. You want quality go Moducase. I'll post a side by side soon. Hope this helps.

Awesome, that would be fantastic!

Is this the exact one you're talking about?

They appear to be out of stock at the moment, but I'd be happy to wait if they're that great.

Yes but you can order direct from the company. Great customer service!

Here are some pics I took with the phone. Darth Vader is in the Moducase.
The HT/GG are in Ikea. The moducase can be seen from 3 sides and comes with lights. I got the tracking lights.

Thanks so much for that, they look insanely nice! Awesome collection there

Totally going with the Moducase, just working a few things out with the options, such as tracking lights vs the spotlights. I'm thinking tracking lights too, but might watch some YouTube videos comparing the two.

Thanks again!

 

[JoePrince]

Thanks!
I am putting together the other D60's and getting rid of the Ikea. From what I see I like the traking lights. I would order direct from them. They DO take a long time to fill an order but well worth the wait. Good luck. Will post the new cases when done.

 

[JoePrince]

New cases up. Have to order more. Will put statues in where HT now sit and move the HT over.

Wow! Beautiful display looks incredible, thanks for sharing.

I ended up going with the Moducase Max 150 with the adjustable shelf as I needed the extra height because I've got the new Sideshow Premium Format Vader on preorder (25 inches tall!) Plus I've got the Sideshow Mandalorian and Grogu Premium Format which is 20 inches tall. Hopefully I've made the right decision, the measurements seem to add up to compensate for the extra height needed. Looking forward to it arriving, but I'm not expecting to see it before probably April 2023?

 

[JoePrince]

Nice! Congrats! You will not be disappointed! Yeah that's the only down side to them..the waiting! Took 9 months for me but well worth it!

@Mechleader Display looks great! Keep us updated with the pictures when you have everything done!

 

[JoePrince]

Thanks SpecialOpsUnit! I will. Still moving things around. Itching to get my Mythos Obi Wan..first version out and display it. Thinking of General Grievous for the bottom one. I want PT on one side and OT on the other. Have to get my GG Jabba for the the bottom where the Rancor is.

That is a great idea, splitting up the trilogies like that.

Is that why you're thinning your GG collection a bit? To free up some more room?

 

[JoePrince]

Thanks!
Yes. Too much stuff and not enough room. Plus, I'm not sure I want to go where GG is headed. They have been hit or miss lately. They have produced some great pieces but now...not so much. I'll only keep what I want. I'm going the less is more route. Same with HT to a degree.
