"Off Season" display question

Halloween is approaching fast and will be past us very soon. So what does everyone do with they’re Proton Packs and Uniforms? I’m curious how everyone displays their equipment in the “off-season”

I keep mine in my living room next to my couch. I have a very patient and loving wife :cool:

Ours are hung on the wall, and two black half height bookcases hold all our gear, and swag.

$20 guitar stand, Best Buy.

Not bad Ideas. I think I’m going to hang it up in my office and figure out a way to display my uniform next to it.

Check out what I did. It only cost $4 to make.

I bought some wall hooks from IKEA for about 3-4 bucks they came with mounting screws as well. I displayed my pack in the living room next to the big screen along with a 12 dollar display shelf from Lowes for my trap and goggles. For less then 20 bucks makes a great display for pack and accessories.

$10 guitar stand, in front of the fireplace.

$15 guitar stand, and a $20 wooden cube from Target.

Mine sits ontop of an old guitar amp. Id love to hang it on a wall PH style but the walls in my place are paper thin.

Ive got my pack hanging on my wardrobe door with one of those over door ironing board hangers

Made a wall mount “pack charger” -the pack hangs in my office.

Currently, my plan is to pick up some Pelican cases for my hard gear, and just hang the suit in my closet. Of course, currently, my usual con schedule is spread out enough through the year that I don’t know that I have a real “off-season” for costuming. Hell, right now I’ve got Jedi robes, a Battlestar Galactica Viper pilot’s suit, and a couple of uniforms from the Stargate franchise hanging next to my real-world clothes.

i use mine to hold papers down on my desk.

If I ever get my damn costume and equipment done, I’d like to get a mannequin set up like the PH displays.

My dog would probably pee on it though.

I just built this stand. It does the job well enough.

Okay cat. what did you do with the proton pack?

“I gets cheezburger, u get funny macheen back… Deel?”

Dan AKA has a cool / weird half torso display with his flight suit that I like..

How about a glass topped coffee table in the lounge large enough to house the pack… that way you can see it AND have a functional piece of furniture?

I plan to hang mine on the wall in the lounge, but once it’s finished I might need to re-think as I reckon it’s gonna look a bit strange sticking out so far from the wall… but we’ll see!
