I'll look into it - thanks for the info.

I have to ask, what's that awesome Pyro made from?

 

An awesome upgrade kit from board member javaco Heavy/Scratch: - Shapeways: Pyro Conversion Kit used on a Hotspot figure from a two pack a couple years back.

Thought I'd show a comparison between the act5 stands and the new Hasbro ones. The Hasbro ones have these spring loaded claws to hold the figures. Actually they worked way better than I thought you would. Grabbed and held most toys in a good location. They are also super tall and handle a Voyager weight toy. The act 5 stands technically have more options- a claw, a different kind of claw and the plug. Really the claws dont grab, you just kinda wedge them on. The little plugs though,work the absolute best. However mine wouldn't really hold up a Voyager well. So.... over all I'd say get the Hasbro ones. Taller, sturdier, and good attachment, though lacking some options.

How do you get the Hasbro stands?

 

Question for ya — what 3rd party company are those Quintesson Scientist and Prosecutor from? They look really good, and just the right size!

 

Those are the old Impossible Toys versions. You can find them on ebay but buyer beware, as they are SUPER hella expensive.

 

Either buy the Deluxe movie Black Widow, or buy the 3 packs of the stands off of hasbropulse.com for $15

 

Hasbro Poseable Action Figure Stands 3-Pack (Hasbro Pulse Exclusive)

 

Are the Hasbro Stands better than the Bandai Action Base ones? I'd had some of those in a cart for a while waiting to order but haven't pulled the trigger yet... $7 a piece -vs- the Hasbro 3/$15

 

I would say they are personally. Less options when it comes to attachment to a figure, but the grip claw is spring loaded and the vertical riser is very stable

 

looking at the product page and while it looks like "no", it's not very clear: do they have the 3mm posts for the underside/backside of figures? or just the claw grips?

Will have to order a set next time I get something from HP.

 

The Hasbro dont have the 3mm pegs. What my post was comparing was the bandi act 5 stands so it has side by side pics of the bandi and Hasbro stands

I like the Hasbro a bit better. They hold weight better, and are taller. The spring loaded claw is great too
