    Thank you @Evirdrevo!

    Do you have the larger, after-market wings/ring?
    If so, could you measure the diameter for the ring as well?

    Yes, I've got the larger rings/wings.

    Horizontal diameter (spike to spike): 18"
    Vertical diameter: 17" (again, mine is likely somewhat mistransformed)

    FYI,
    The whole reason I asked is because I ran by these (looking to display a signed VB), and it dawned on me that these could be potentially fantastic ways to "hang" Cell's planet mode.

    He looks to fit in ALL of these. And I like the idea of him mounted on a wall, suspended in air, as opposed to sitting on a shelf or hung with wires from the ceiling.
    Now I just have to decide which one, and find an open place on my already crammed wall! :lol

    I would check the max weight of the fixtures against the weight of zeta, since he is a pretty solid guy.
    Those are a really nice find BTW!

    I did a bit ago. It's around 4 pounds, give or take half a pound.

    Cool, TY.

    The metal ones should work, for they hold 10-15lbs.
    No specs on the clear plastic one. Hoping the manufacturer gets back to me with an answer.

    he’s been hanging securely off the wires for a few weeks now low to the ground.

    Used a stud finder and the hook is drilled into the stud, so I’m pretty sure it’s solid.

    You should swap over those two picture on the left wall, as the bottom one looks kind of like Unicron and would go well next to him.

    Possibly. From this angle it's fine, but from many angles he's obscuring Stanley Pain (my favorite album cover ever- also the bottom one is the actual splatter vinyl record) Have to tweak something, that could be it. Thanks.

    I made a mount to display the head like if its floating around the rings in planet mode.

    His head just plugs into the base, and the base plugs into the 5mm pegs around the ring.

    The 3D print file is on thingiverse in case someone wants to print one out.
