Nope, I didn't. Was like 3 and a half weeks after I placed the order I emailed them and asked where it was, twice. Twice they came back with the usual mumbo jumbo, read direct off a PC screen that we ship orders after they arrive at the warehouse. Got bored of waiting so bought it direct from Sideshow. I think the thing is awesome.

Went to the Dallas Ikea this morning and found 2 Tombo doors hiding in the Clearance section. Really would have liked to been able to get some more but at this point I'll take what I can get. Really irritates me that they are discontinued.

Very nice displays! Honestly, I'm using backgrounds in all my displays, but I REALLY like the way yours look with a solid dark background too.
You should start your own thread for these shelves, I'll definitely subscribe - looking forward to seeing the snow one too.

Sweet displays Doudou and Greengiant! Those Glassvik doors look real classy. I went to Ikea to check if they had those doors in white, but they only had the ones with frosted glass. I remembered some of the guys in this thread mentioning Tombo doors being restocked, so I checked. And they had them!
Unfortunately I had to rearrange my display and put my Batman PF and my upcoming Superman PF down to the second cubes. It doesn't look too bad, but I'm going to have to rethink what I'm going to do about the bottom cubes. Maybe I'll use them for storing the switch out parts and accessories. But I'm seriously thinking about just buying the 2 cube high bestas and use them as pedastals for the Trinity, like how Mamba has his for his collection. But again, there's the dust issue.

Curious to see how the glassvik doors look with Superman/Batman PF. The doors look very nice, but I don't want it covering their faces D:

I got my besta doorless for so long, I think I might go with the glassvik. Too bad the tombos are discontinued.

Nice Darth Alias! So much Terminator goodness on that top shelf.
Are those the new Black Glassvik doors?

I am finally in need of some larger displays. I have been using just 2 detolfs since I've started, but now I just got a few more large pieces and a handful more on the way. I am thinking of getting some bestas. I'm going to ikea this weekend. I want to get the mirrored backs. I don't like the displays too high because I like to put statues on top. I have about a 3ft x 4ft corner to put this. I would love to get some storage cabinets underneath also. I want to stack the bestas on top of the cabinets. Any suggestions would be welcome. Otherwise, I'm just gonna dive right in and post some pics this weekend!!!

Maybe try 2 or 3 two cube high bestas side by side. You can put your statues on top, put the rear mirrored panels in the upper cube, and install cabinet doors or drawers for the lowest cubes? Plus you can have a besta unit fastened to the wall above the statues so you can have them led lighted if you want and height adjusted to your tallest piece. Just throwing out some ideas that I'm thinking about using. 
How many statues do you have or do you have upcoming? Maybe you can just go with a Pax instead?

Holy crap! I thought by a few pieces you meant 3 or 4.
If you're only confined to that specific space, then you should probably go with a Pax. You can fit way more statues per shelf. The Hulk and Apoc alone will take up a lot room. Plus you can group your various pieces together. The only downside would be having to mod a plexiglass door to fit if you are worried about dust.
Whatever you decide, do post pics when you have everything settled. Sounds like you have an awesome collection.

Yeah, you maybe right. I'm gonna cutout sine shirts of paper today that are the sizes of the shelfs and test out placement. One thing I worry about is cluttering. I do feel like once there gets to be too many pieces, collections can start to lose the appeal.
