8BrickMario Posted September 13, 2015 Posted September 13, 2015 (edited) I wanted to have a plate set up to display all of the 16 monsters in Series 14. To begin, I was horribly uncreative and simply set up four rows of black CMF stands on a green plate. Then I got the idea of integrating the packet into a sign for the series itself, as the little hole in the bag fit nicely over a row of four studs. Along the way, the process turned it into an extra-spooky stand that I'm rather proud of. All of the figures are in order of opening, i.e., the Banshee was the first I opened, and the Zombie Cheerleader was the most recent as of this posting. The tombstone itself isn't nearly as pretty without the packet. I ran out of normal grey bricks, so I just hid the other ones behind it. The tiles on the front of the "tombstone" pin the packet to it. The ones on the bottom keep it from hanging outwards, since there are going to be four more minifigures on that last row and it would be in the way. I added brown plates and tiles and slopes between the rows to make the grave look freshly dug. Note the two custom bases for the Specter and Banshee, which allow them to stand centered and in line with the others. Both required tiles behind them in the "dirt" to allow their ghostly trails to fit. Inside the display packet, there is a spare checklist. The packet itself is the Banshee's. Good thing I decided to save it and cut it open from the back! I probably won't be doing anything as elaborate for the next series, as it won't be themed, but I thought this was fun to make, and it's a better display than the boring rows of stands I had before.

CisFran Posted September 14, 2015 Posted September 14, 2015 You may wish to elevate the platforms for the figures at the 2nd and 3rd rows so that they can be seen easily Quote
