These are available with different amounts of rows, I ordered two of the 5 tier stands because they're 10CM wider the the other sizes.
(There are actually different versions of the 5 tier stand)
This is Version 1 ($14)
Simple construction, it tends to sag in the center with a lot of weight on it, causing the corners to lift. It's great for storing hobby paint/nail polish, but has a little too much flex for my liking to display figures.
Version 2 ($18) It has the steps fused to a bracer, and that's what gets screwed to the side panels. As a result it's mega sturdy. It's also 1cm shorter than Version 1, but the steps where figures' feet go are about the same width, 37-39mm.
Version 3 ($$?)
There's a third version that's 10CM less in length, matching all the other tiers, but I got these longer ones because they fit well in my display case.
I recommend them, even the "flimsier" one is fine, it's just obvious that the Version 2 is better when you have them both in hand.

You can get them on amazon or ebay, ask for pics of the actual item if possible so you know which one you're getting

I see a photobombing Andre! š Bayley is passed out drunk under the bleachers too lol No idea, but these are about 41cm wide and 12-13cm high.
Depending on the price, it could be cheaper to buy multiples of the other tiers instead, 5 tier seems to be popular because of the extra width so it tends to be listed for a higher price.
thanks for sharing def. gonna check it out I just saw that there's yet another version of these things, with each row individually bolted to the side panels. That should be comparable in terms of stability with Ver. 2 here. |

Bed bath and beyond sell white ones that fit into detolfs. They sell 2 different sizes, I believe it was the larger size that fits in perfectly. |

I saw the copco ones (shelf organizer), they're a waste of space IMO. About the same width and length, but less rows, and shorter, so you have a bunch of dead space above. Plus...they're ugly  I'm sure they can work fine for certain displays though, as people on this forum have shown. Just depends on your needs. |

Personally I like the extendable 3-tier spice racks. They are very sturdy. I have been using them for all my figures shelves since Jakks CS Series 1 and never had any buckle. I do like that the nail polish ones are clear instead of white like the spice racks. But you lost me on them when you said they buckle under the weight of the figures.

PJ Then look for the Version 2 stands, zero problems. The plastic is thicker too. The pictures with the figures and paints on it is of Version 1, and as you can see the figures look just fine. I wouldn't even have nitpicked it if I didn't have the [slightly] superior Ver 2 to compare it to. Papi Joker Because if if he goes up front he'll block half the frame lol
