I am wondering if anyone found any cool tables or pedastals to store Jabba in or on yet? If you do can you post links? I am trying to find a table big enough to fit him and his friends on. Then get a Case from here https://store.casesforcollectibles.com/index.html to put on top. What do you guys think?


I was going to buy a black and glass TV stand for him and his pals, but since I moved all my PF's I am going to put him on top of my 65" TV. I am also planning on getting an acrylic case to go over the whole set up.
 
There is a home improvement outlet near my home that carries kitchen cabinets (including floor and wall). Some of these cabinets are untreated wood while some have been prepainted and polyurthaned. I have an option to do either. The cost for a floor model in the size I'm looking for was well under $100 per piece. I'd also have to purchase a piece of plywood and cut it down to fit the top and back as they are left open. Then I could either make an acryllic case or order from casesforcollectibles scaled to fit the countertop.

The end result will look very similar to what you would see at a pet shop with a larger glass aquarium. I think it would be perfect to display Jabba & his friends. If I have any money left over from the project I'm sure I can create a perfect backdrop with materials from Michaels/AJ Moore and Home Depot/Lowes. The materials would help replicate Jabbas Palace alot better than if this was a stand-alone piece in a glass cabinet.
 
Am I correct on the Jabba & throne dimensions? 29" length--- 17" width--- and 16" height with the Jabba on top of the throne?

Yep, sounds right. I believe that's what I've got taped off....

Damn... I had the perfect spot for it. In my office there's a cupboard built into the wall that would have been ideal to house a Jabba--- it's over 29" long--- the problem is that the closet from my bedroom sloped into it causing a sloping angle at the 24" mark... I just measured it after reading this thread-- I had just assumed that it would work... FUBAR!

By the way, I think KitFisto mentioned that you did some paint jobs on Hasbro's Gamorrean guard so I took a look. They're awesome! Love the way the lips actually look like they're gooey.

Now if you'll excuse me I've got a measuring tape and a mission to accomplish.
 
I really can't wait to get the whole Jabba set up, my sideshow collection doesn't feel complete without it, I feel once I have the massive thing I'll know where everything will be displayed.
 
Ok so I found a suitable table. It looks like Sideshow flip flopped the dimensions for the actual product and the product in the box. Anyone know if thats true?
 
I think it just might work Customikey. Especially when I get you to repaint that Gammi of mine. I am still trying to come up with the funds for that. But don't worry I haven't forgotten.

I'm not worried! I'm inundated with Gammys right now. Swimming in swine, as it were. I'll have to take a pic of my Pig Army once they're all painted and ready to be sent tothe four corners of the world! :lol
 
How are you guys planning on displaying Ghoel so he's somewhat close to his proper positioning?

Looking forward to getting my two back to go with Jabba. The set up with all the characters is going to be SWEET!

I don't think you'll regret it. Granted, I have not gotten mine back yet, but after seeing his other Gammy's it's obvious how much they will add to the scene.
 
I wouldn't complain if you guys wanted to hold off until Kit's fgot his in person and can give everyone a real review of how they look in hand.

By the way Kit, they're next up. There's just two heads standing between me and your Gammys.
