Best With All HG: be yourself Only scale Model Stand

Buy on Amazon

Not everyone likes to purchase stand for their daily usage, but the be yourself only scale model stand would be an anomoly. These are made for Bandai model kits like GUNPLA Gundam 1/144 scale. The four prong head might be able to hold a part on certain generations/individual figures, but you are better off looking for a standard action figure base if you have a figure with the foot peg hole. The long pieces are pretty thin and are prone to bending to the side.

Since the base is a hollow shell, the stand is a bit wobbly and can easily be tipped over. It holds firmly after trimming. The base appears flat but doesn't sit flush on a flat surface without weight on it. While easy enough to assemble, it could be a little thicker which would increase sturdyness substantially. They snap together very easily, only takes a couple minutes to fully assemble. It comes with different attachments like the crotch fork for those old kits with no hole.
