Yo Joes! Here's a video I did on the custom flight stands that appeared in my Ultimate USS Flagg review a few months back. Scramble the fighters!

Oh wow. Easily rack up $100+
I know its Star Wars and no GI Joe but among all of they skystriker/rattler stands I have in my cart, I've also been looking for a stand to display my Amazon exclusive Slave I vertically so this is perfect. |

These are just SO cool. It would be really nice to display some of the vehicles in action poses.

Probably not applicable for everyone else but I use magnets. Powerful magnets from a company called supermagnete.com
They are based in Germany and if you supply the specs they can test to see if it holds (weight of the item and thickness of shelf). They have some pot hanging rods with hook. That's what I use. I have my collection displayed in glass shelves around 6mm thick. So I have the pot magnet on one side and on the other a disk magnet. The thicker the magnet more powerful it is. As I said maybe it won't work for everyone because the thickness of the shelf is important here. In my case I have a Python Conquest, Sand Serpent, sky sweeper etc... hanged with fishing line and hooked into these pot magnets. If you can somehow add a metal plate to your shelf that's even better and you can have a very powerful grip. I can tell you that for example the discs if I put 2 together it is a pain to take them apart. They are really powerful.

Michael that was a great review, thanks for sharing! I love these flight stands and plan on ordering some soon.
Grippen, can you pm me some pictures of your setup, that sounds neat.

Wow, that is a really cool looking display!
These stands look awesome, but I'm afraid to get any because if I put one vehicle on them I know I'll want all my aircraft on them and that will get pricey quick.

Ye the magnets from them aren't cheap. Normally you can get some a lot cheaper from China but you won't know how strong they are. I doubt the chinese sellers can conduct the necessary tests as these guys do. It will be a risk.
