    I've always wanted to display my G1 & MP Megatron in Gun-Mode, but haven't found a proper display for it.

    My question is... Would you buy a G1 & MP Megatron Gun-Mode Display if one was made available?

    Also, if you already have your G1 & MP Megatron displayed in Gun-Mode... How did you display it and please show some pics.

    I probably would. Right now I have him hanging on the wall behind one of my shelves.

    That's a good idea actually. Yeah, I'd be down for one of those for G1.

    G1, maybe, depending on price. Definitely not for the MP figure, though.

    I wouldn't, but it would be a nice option for those who want one.

    I think it would depend upon how much it was and what it was like. I'd be interested, though :)

    no, wouldn't keep any of them in gun mode, i wouldn't want some one to get confused and think it is the real thing. and while i do not have any kids, *though i might someday* my sister does. and it'd worry me, if a kid would start playing with it or something.

    besides, i'd much rather just keep them in robot mode.

    I don't think it needs a stand actually ... it seems to stand fine on it's own in gun mode.

    My G1 is boxed ... I use to have him displayed on the wall in gun form like other pictures posted but it started to get too dusty. My MP is normally in robot mode but when I had him in gun mode he stood fine on its own.

    The problem is that if you make a stand. it will need to support the front end of the MP5 upgrade barrel extension.

    I would have this, to let people know Im serious bizness:

    Bedside Bed frame mounted Holster Rack pistol handgun | eBay

    But no seriously, if I (still) had those two figures and wanted to display them in gun mode, I would just hang em from hooks on the wall. I suppose you could also use nails, but it's whatever.

    :thumbs2:  Thanx, 80% of the time people see the Decepticon symbol. I even have others ask to be photographed with him.
