Anyone familiar with MODUCASE?

Finished everything except my half shelves. Had just the 1 broken front cover, all 4 of my toppers busted up, and the bottom base board on the felt side of my DF60 has a big dent in it. I haven't checked my half shelves yet.

Overall, the display turned out sleek and amazing. Very clean looking. I love it!

Nice set up! I like the way you’ve laid them out asymmetrically to fit your teevee. I’ve blackened more than one ceiling myself, back in the day of fluorescent posters and bong hits.

Here’s an idea of how to deal with the dented toppers: put a 24”x48” black gaming mousepad over them. I use those to fit under my DF120s but they’ll fit on top as well. They look pretty classy. (Not that I have any class. But you could!)

Or just go to the lumberyard and get two black 12”x48” book shelves to replace each topper.

Hope this helps!

Thank you! I will have to look into that. I also don't care for how the toppers just sit on top without being secured on. I have my wall mount for my TV coming tomorrow, so that will no longer be sitting on top.

And part 2 of my office upgrade. Was not as bad to build as I initially thought, first one was tough but the last was simple. Just a riser that will be arriving soon for the Sixth 165 cases. Maybe this evening I will start to move 1/6 statues to their new home. What a cool contraption, I am very pleased so far. Some cool setups in this thread.

 

[phishbones]

Slow progress on the statue movement. But there is movement. The statue fish tanks are awesome. Still have another case to fill in as well. When the other riser arrives then all the marvel statues will go in there.

Does anyone have any acrylic cleaner they recommend to use on these? I purchased Blue Ribbon Plexi-Clean from Amazon and its awful. It leaves a lot of streaks, and does not help with static.

Looks like they are running an up to 30% sale at the moment until the 31st October.
Will the Black Friday sales be similar discount or are they normally higher?

From what I remember, 30% may be better than what they normally do on Black Friday.

Damn I'm not in a position to place an order now but was hoping to be by the time the Black Friday sale started.
Might just reduce how many I wanted to order just to get some savings then purchase the rest at a later day.

I think black Friday is usually 20% off. Maybe they do more this year

Minimum purchase of $1,500.00 to receive any discount. A bit much for me and I don’t need that many more cases.

 

[Solidus]

Same. All I needed was about 4 Sixth110s or 3 DF 120s. I'll probably just order for regular price.

If your final price is around $1000, I would take a look at bumping your order up to $1500 to get that discount and pay about the same at 30% off.

If you get either of those plus any add ons like risers or ther extras you may be around $1000.

Looking for some advice from anyone that went from Detolf's to Moducase.
I'm thinking about replacing 4 of my Detolf's with 3-4 Sixth110, but I'm struggling to judge if this would give me more overall display space or would I be loosing space?
I currently have 2-3 figures per shelf in my Detolf's, some are singular figures.

I believe the 110s are rated for up to 12 sixth scale figures, though that may be crowded unless you get a back riser.

Thanks, I think that would cover the detolfs I'm looking to replace with the benefit of being able to add more cases at a later date.

That’s what the “Modu” means in their name.

I love em. I have twenty of various sizes (110s, 55s, 98s, DF120s and DF60s. They each have their uses. I like to use the 55s and 60s for dioramas.

I was originally going to place one big order directly with Moducase as I know how long the shipping times are, but I've since found a UK supplier who will be getting a rolling amount of stock so I will be able to pick a few up initially and then add a few more in a short period of time.

That’s a great idea. I was also going to place one big ModuSpace order but decided against that after considering their wait times.

Instead I started picking them in small batches whenever they came “in stock” at BBTS or SS.
Nine of the cases I have were ordered and acquired within a week just last month!

Sure, those retailers charge more, but BBTS shipped _three_ DF120s to me for just $4.00!

So I’ve been building them as I can find time.
So far, that’s still fun.

Enjoy! They really do add a lot of class to a room.

Yeah that's what has made me look for another supplier as well, thankfully this supplier are the "only official Moducase supplier in the UK" and they offer them for the same pricing as direct with Moducase, but with lower shipping costs as it is shipped from within the UK.
They also have all the VAT/Taxes included in the price, so no worrying about another bill once they are delviered.
