    Can anyone offer recommendations for quality and not too expensive figure stands for 6-inch scale? Preferably clear.

    I use the ARAH style Small Joes stands for my 6 inch Star Wars Black Series and Marvel Legends. You put one on each foot and they work great. I don't know if the holes in the Joe feet are the same size or not, but they fit most all of the Star Wars and Marvel figures. If one is a little tight, I use a screw driver to make the hole a little bigger.

    The ones I have are black. I forget if they make them in clear or not.

    Here is a 6 inch Marvel Legends Star Lord with the Small Joes stands.

    After checking out the joes 6" figures on PULSE i want them all. I just don't want my money tied up till july before i would get them since that is the release date for them . I guess I'll gamble and hope they are still available when it gets closer.

    They don’t charge until the items ship so no money tied up.

    They don't charge, but they will do a temp authorization that is typically refunded the same day. So you do have to have the money currently in your account or on your card.

    I think Widow fits in very well with her new team. Managed a quick solution for Roadblock to hold his BAG.

    He looks like some evil scientist, could make for a cool Classified figure, I forgot about him.

    I want to see Big Boa in the line. His helmet is awesome.

    Good pic, Black Widow could be used as Covergirl (just give her, her Wolverine tank).

    That’s a great choice and one I hadn’t really thought of. I agree, he would make a great figure in the new line.

    I do the same for some of my Legends and SW Black figures. They do make them clear:

    Can't wait to see Airtight. I've loved his design ever since I was young.
    Probably an unpopular opinion, but I would also love to see Classified Flak Viper!
