Congrats! I have one Detolf and am looking to get another. It's the best!

Thanks, they are a bit of an investment... but the only way my wife would let them be out lol. The spice racks are the 15" Copco brand. They fit perfectly and are $8 from Bed Bath and Beyond (ive seen them on amazon too if you dont have a bb&b).

Great setup! Looks really clean and crisp. I need to get a couple of these but I keep holding off. The BCA's fit in really nicely. I have Marlena waiting for a flashback Goldust, but if one doesn't get announced soon I'll probably do what you did and get the heritage Goldust then throw the wig on it.

I've been waiting for a good fb Goldie too... but I think this is as close as it gets as of now? Chyna isnt the greatest, scale wise, but it works until I can get my hands on a custom. Trying to figure out what other Jakks figs would work okay without looking crazy different.

What lighting did you go for also? IKEA leds strips?
Looks great, very nicely set out. Any chance of a zoomed out view of the whole thing?
Great stuff!

The Ikea Dioder regular white LED light strips. I learned with this first case to figure out where you want the lights before sticking them on, as the undertaker corner is a little dark, as well as placing them in the case before placing the top part of the case on. I also learned to clean the shelf glass and top wooden piece before sticking to get the packing dust off, or they wont stay up. And finally, I need to work on the wire management a bit more to get them as hidden as possible. Hopefully that helps anyone looking to do it themselves from making some mistakes I did. I will get some other pics this evening zommed out. I placed my case on a shelving unit to elevate it a bit. They are only about 5 feet tall. So another foot or so makes the bottom shelves easier to see (as well as keeping it off the floor which will help keep dust out.)

Nice set up, I love the detolfs I have one for my figures, and those same spice racks.
I may take a leaf from your book as I have my figures on the black stands that used to come with early figs, however it limits the number I can fit on each step to 5, whereas you have about 7 and it doesnt look too crowded.

I havent had any issues so far with anyone falling or dominoing the others. But they arent quite as sturdy. Had to get their feet/torsos right on another shelf before placing them in here. I have those stands too, bt was trying to maximize space without losing too much detail of the figures. Let me know which you prefer, id be interested to hear.

Detolf are a great investment if you are serious about your collectibles. Especially with soft goods, people don't realize how damaging dust can be to color over time.

I feel bad for that Chyna figure. She needs to be made by Mattel because she deserves it.

Trying to figure out what other Jakks figs would work okay without looking crazy different. I have Chyna with DX and the scale isn't that horrible. I also have Tori with X Pac and that looks fine, also a TTL Chyna with Eddie, an RA Stephanie with Triple H, and Mae, Moolah, Sable, and Ivory with the Mattel Trish, waiting for E41 Lita.
