I have a question for those who enjoy displaying their GB figures out of the box. What sort of peg stands might you be using for them? I know they stand pretty well on their own – but I’d be happier (and less paranoid) with them on support stands. I’ve been looking around, but all I seem to find are for the smaller star wars figures. Any recommendations before I start shelling out more cash?

Hey MPB!

There’s this guy who makes all kinds of stuff for the GB figures. He’s workin’ on some stands. Take a look at his thread here:

The stands are on about the third page.

Hee - It might help if I first asked if anyone knew the actual measurement of the pegs for the stands. Anyone know?

First up, I’ve got to recommend Capt’s bases he’s currently making. I plan on getting some myself.

For a standard base, you’ll want the “vintage figure stand” that generally comes in black or clear. (I’ve got the clear) Those work for the [kenner](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/real-ghostbusters/kenner-10410) figs and some of Matty’s. The Matty figures are really hit a miss. At least mine are, some fit well, others don’t. Worse case is just drill a new hole in the foot at the size you need to fit the base. I’ll try and snap some pics to show some examples.

Thanks – after looking at what the capt has been doing I think it may be a pretty damn good investment to go with his.
