Here is a diagram of my "proposed" GI Joe display. It will be a custom build that I'm planning to put in my office against one wall.
I designed it around the USS Flagg. There should be more than enough space to display all my 25th carded figs, vehicles, playsets, busts, etc. What do you think? My wife thinks it is excessive and expensive... I agree with her... but I think it will be so cool to have somewhere to display all my Joes, and keep them dust free. |

I have just about the same idea for my future Joe display minus the very bottom drawer section. It might be expensive but that mainly depends on what kind of materials you use for the shelves. Either really expensive wood or not expensive wood. My idea is to put the Flagg in the middle and then put the Defiant and MCC on the bottom shelf to be ready for action and roll out. Awesome idea, can't wait to see the real deal.

Sounds like a cool concept. We spend a ridiculous amount of money on these things, why not invest some money into a safe/cool storage cabinet. Can't wait to see it if you ever get it built.

Paint the board under the Flagg ship. It would look like it was sitting on water. I did that with mine and looks cool.

I wouldn't paint the top blue but go like fabric store and pick up some that looks like water. you can add the ripples in it and it will look so much better.
