Hello all, If there is already a thread for this please direct me to it.
I'm curious if anyone here has built their own stage or entrance and if they could offer any advice, tips, pics or ideas. I recently picked up an elite scale ring and I'd like to build an area / entrance to display it with but I don't even know where to start. Is there a place to get things like truss, lights, etc that would be in scale with the ring and figs?
Any help would be great Thanks

I'm at the same point you are. It's hard to think of ideas.

Use foam board as a base. Print out designs on a nice printer, or professional from a print shop, to paste onto the foam board base structure.
You can use plastic frames for screens if you want to swap out video screens.
Measure the foam core before you cut , because you only have one cut.
For truss, get old Jakks parts or Mattel staging parts. You only need as many as you like, and they look really good.
I would use foam core for the ramp , too, because the toy staging ramps are small.

For anyone who was curious, this is what I ended up putting together. Managed to find figure sized truss on amazon All the signage is attached with velcro so I can easily switch out different logos

Love the lights and the unique layout of the stage and ramp. Thank you. It came together better than I expected, I don't have a huge space for the ring so I figured the L shape mad the best use of it. Plus you can do dives from the stage to the ring or vise versa. The lights are from 5 below if you want to get some. It's not in the picture but halfway down the ramp there is a small platform then the ramp turns toward the ring.
