Detolf and other shelving systems

[Natrix]

Yes, thank you SOOOO MUCH! I've been looking for this information everywhere, I think this will work out well for me, just gotta get to IKEA any day now! Cheers!:chew

It was also listed earlier in the thread (post 56 to be exact), if you would have read it....

We don't have an ikea here in TN, and no, I'm not surprised. I mean, it's TN...But I am heading to Texas next week and am going to pick up atleast 1 of these detolfs because I think it'd be a huge mistake not to have one. I haven't left my 12" out due to dust and space on the shelves I have now. So I want to be able to display my babies out of their boxes. And I want to do it nowish. I have 22 12" so I guess I need 2.

Can anyone tell me how these are packaged? I have a sports car and well, dunno about the package length. Will these fit in my car?

I think you could manage it. I would pop the turnk and fit it in long ways as far back as it will go, just lower the back seat back to get more trunk space, if possible. I would imagine they are completely unassembled and packaged in a 6 foot long card board box, probably only 6 inches or so in height. But that's just a guess. I would use some bungee cord or rope to tie down just in case.

If you're driving from TN to TX, just hope it doesn't rain. and your popped trunk may prevent you from seeing out of rearview.... and your popped trunk may also create a wind-tunnel inside your sports car at speeds greater than 65 mph..... Erm, on second thought, maybe don't try it.

Go with craigslist instead.

So I put the Alien dio on one shelf, Aliens on the next shelf, and the Predator on the 3rd shelf. Are these shelves entirely stable? I think the weight capacity is around 2.2 kilograms which converts to 13lbs. but the dios seem heavier than they look. It's freaking me out!

I was wondering does anyone know if they still sell Docents.


Also can you fit all of the GG statues into the Detolf like Maul with their sabes ignited.

Yes.... You Have to play with it (Maul) a Little but they will fit.......

Has anyone tried to put the Captain America Premium Format on a glass shelf in detolf with success?

Upgrade and get the Besta system from Ikea. I love it!

Could you give me a direct link to those? I looked the their site and could not find them?

I think detolfs fit figures better than statues , perfect size and stuff , four shelves ( and the top ). The besta seem to suit statues more.
Once my plasterer has finished my room up here ( tomorrow hopefully ) and the floors down after paint I should be using 2 detolfs behind the door and for the figures maybe a lack ( also from ikea , they rock ) to the left of the room.

Besta are perfect for PFs and the Billy is would be good for smaller statues.

Hi all

This is my first post and I have a question. Is it okay to place a legendary bust (Iron man) on one of the glass shelf of the Detolf?? It seems kinda heavy for it but I want to make sure its okay.

Thanx

Should be fine... they can hold fairly heavy objects, I think 16 to 18lbs per shelf.

They hold up to 22lbs each. No prob for most.

Cool!! Thank you averone and galactiboy.

Does anyone have any tips to keep the dust out of the detolf? Any sort of seal around the doors? I think someone hinted there was an option, but I don't know where to find this seal.

You'll be fine with a LSM on the shelf. I have the 1:2 Batman and 1:2 Joker busts in my Detolfs and they are fine.
