But they can't, so mainly white is better. Doesn't matter, will buy. I'm a bit disappointed by the Dagger. The shape of the wings is ok, but the colours are way off. The red is too bright, the black should be brown. The cockpit and struts are a huge let-down, looks more like a 4+. I will still buy it, because i collect different TIEs and i don't think we'll ever get another Dagger in the future. But i hope for a more accurate MOC, the design deserves it. Um I think this is the wrong topic Quote

nerdsforprez Posted June 23, 2020 Posted June 23, 2020 Hey @Jim - Just noticed this. I posted a similar post in the Technic forum. I am looking at display stands and I checked out the idisplayit site. Wondering if you could help answer a question. The stands look pretty firm and strong. Do you think they could suipport the weight of other display cases on top of them? Like if you were to stack them? I would think they would be pretty strong.... I mean the stand itself can support the MF - which has to be 12-15 pounds itself...right? Quote
Hold0511 Posted June 23, 2020 Posted June 23, 2020 (edited) I have a couple of these displays for my Batmobile and UCS A-wing - neither would take any significant weight on the top as the case design is not load bearing - the stand takes all the wight of the lego - it may be different for the MF case so I'll leave that for Jim to cover off.

Jim Posted June 23, 2020 Author Posted June 23, 2020 I concur. These are not designed to be stacked. Wait a minute; are you talking about the stand or the case? Do you want to stack supercars? Quote

I am looking to stack the cases. Not many, only about three or so. But, by the feedback you both have given this may not be a good idea. Dang it. I may have to go back to the drawing board. I had designed a very large table with large table legs with room for the display cases embedded right into the legs. But only if they are stack-able. Obviously they would not be supporting the table, that is a given, but I would need them to support the weight of eachother. Quote

No sturdiness whatsoever...or hardly any. Quote

nerdsforprez Posted July 3, 2020 Posted July 3, 2020 Well, I have now found these. Obviously they work. I am not sure I like the shipping prices to the US, but it may have to do. I guess the one main difference would be that these cases are 4 mm thick and not 3 mm thick, perhaps that is why the cases can be stacked..... For safety precaution, I think actually will go with these so my plan is back on Quote
Sucram Posted July 18, 2020 Posted July 18, 2020 Im interested in getting this for my Falcon when it arrives, Im wondering if there's anyone here who's had it displayed on the stand for a while, at least a year, and if there have been any problems over time? Quote
Jim Posted July 18, 2020 Author Posted July 18, 2020 No problems whatsoever! The Force is strong with this one. Quote

Maverick73 Posted August 15, 2020 Posted August 15, 2020 Great post and pictures to the display stand and case! Now to save up for the shipping costs to Qatar! Quote

I had to wait a few weeks after I signed up for them to email me when they had new stock. I went with the Mark 2, not sure how different it is from the first version though. Quote

I believe the difference is the mark 1 was designed for the original UCS MF while the mark 2 can actually fit both but ultimately designed for new UCS MF. Quote

We are expecting to have more available mid-late next week. As a general note, we're working really hard to stabilize our inventory levels and should hopefully be able to by mid November on most products. 6 minutes ago, Bbafett said: I believe the difference is the mark 1 was designed for the original UCS MF while the mark 2 can actually fit both but ultimately designed for new UCS MF. The biggest difference is with the landing struts and compatibility. Mark 1: Works with 10179/75192 (landing struts must be removed), Mark 2: Works with 75192 (landing struts can remain stay on). Hope I answered some of your questions! Feel free to post more, and I'll do my best to answer them all! :) Quote
Bbafett Posted October 10, 2020 Posted October 10, 2020 Yeah you are correct. I was wrong on the difference as I just looked it up. Mark 2 is the only one I want as I don’t want to take the landing struts off. I will keep an eye on your website for stock changes. Thx. Quote
