    Hey, once again, you're way too late to the party.

    OCD is just rabble rousing. I suggest you stop trying explain anything to him. He doesn't want to understand. A quick search of this thread suggest he has contributed only twice recently, entirely to be negative.

    Edit: see, mx-01, he just wants to be right and have the final word. Letting him believe he's right is a small sacrifice compared to everyone else realizing it's just gone wrong trying to argue with him.

    I don't care about their costs. Maybe they should have factored in getting the correct colors into the funding phase.

    If I don't get my opinion of it out there, I haven't done my part.

    I’m not sure why you’re using blue text.

    Thanks! It's actually two Metod corner units, one on top of the other. I already had the Billy bookcase with doors (on the right) and this corner unit goes fairly well, standing just a couple of inches proud. You get two glass shelves with each Metod but I've ended up only using one in each. At some point I may get another Billy to go on the left.

    Unicron fits inside snuggly with the full display stand (I had to pop off one set of wings to get him inside, then reattach once he was in, ship-in-a-bottle style!). I don't think planet mode will fit... at least not without maybe removing some protrusions from the ring, and even then you'd have to build the unit around it because the circumference is larger than the opening to the unit!

    Again, I suggest ignoring that individual. He doesn't want to accept that even a large company like Hasbro has its reasons for utilizing a direct to consumer crowdfunding campaign on certain items.

    looks great! Those Billy's line up perfectly with your metod in height. Why not put unicron on the higher shelves?! It's a centrepiece! :)  the fact that you can get him in there completely and show him head to toe is great! I had to make concessions with my setup as you'll see. The glass has a break near the legs.

    The circumference of the rings in planet mode is 29", and it stands 34" tall with the stand. Might fit if you're interested.

    while I wanted planet mode for him it just wasn't possible with the besta. Here's how it ended up with me.

    What is the item number for the metod? It shows a vent when you type that into the IKEA app.

    Looks pretty good! :thumb 
    Planet mode really is ginormous; I love it but displaying it is another thing entirely! Maybe if someone comes out with a kit to assemble the kibble into a separate planet I'll give it a go, but for now he's staying in bot mode.
    690.641.41. Here's the link. Mine's the 100cm tall size, but they also do it at 80cm and 60cm:

    Looks like it’s only over in Europe and not the states.
