Jabba 12" Image Thread

Same hand. Sideshow's prototype was obviously different, I have looked through some reviews and others have mentioned that the cup will only go into the left (not pointing) hand. Same figure.

Amazing display Kuz I love it! Two problems though...How often do you have to dust and I hope you're not located near an earthquake zone. Looks like shelf dive city there

Didn't see this comment until now! !
Actually, it doesn't get that dusty, but I try to dust it at least twice a month.
I'm in CA, so it is a bit shaky some times... last year we got hit with a 6.9 quake and a bunch of figures ended up shelf diving. Since then, I changed all of the display bases to metal ones, and they work great!!

What all did you do? Did you just paint over the existing paint to sorta enhance it?

It is a complete repaint

Looks great Spiker... his eyes especially give him a more Jabbaesque expression

 

[LOPIE]

Very impressive, the eyes are perfect they make him look more sinister.

Great job Spiker ! Your Jabba seems to be alive. A trickle of drool running down your lips and it feels like ROTJ your photos also are sublime

 

[Mandible]

Sensational job Spiker! That kicks some serious ass!

The new way I am displaying Jabba and company in a Besta unit. I am still in the process of working on the setup but I plan to have a huge setup for all my Star Wars 12 inch figures.

Actually it is that one and this one https://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/50102143 put together. Here are some pictures of putting the two units together.

I basically sawed the middle piece of the deeper unit into three pieces the back I turned around and put in the very back of the case and then I took a knife and made the edges even on the piece on the front. You cant really tell that it shouldnt be this way unless you stick your head into the case and look at it. It doesnt really effect the structual integrity because basically all the load is carried by the parts that I leave in there.

Here is an image of the tool that I used to make the holes. I have no clue what it is called but I found it at Lowes.

This is my overall display that I am still working on finishing up

I bought most of my stuff in ASIS at my IKEA. I will probably do something very similar for the Cantina once they release more pieces.

Ah, I see. Very cool.

Unfortunately, my Bob Villa skills are severely lacking and I'm not brave enough to start a project like that.

planning to buy a jabba but can't seem to get a decent price for the throne. is it still worth displaying without it?
