Was just wondering if anyone else's rifle rack barely stands upright and is prone to toppling over at the mere approach of the Baroness (aren't we all)?

I have a custom (waiting for some stickers)... but it got me thinking.

Hahaha, yeah, the Baroness and Lady Jaye were my first crushes!

To your question, while I can't speak on the specific part in question, I have run into that quite a lot with other parts, sometimes due to minor warping/age, and sometimes just due to improper design.

In general, I'll use poster tack when I can get away with it,
and occasionally a small bead of hot glue when I can't. If you don't want the hot glue to be a pain to remove, some plastic prep will be necessary, though.

Lady Jaye is a bit of a strange one. ;-) But first crushes are like that.

I had the usual attachments to Cheetarah, Evil Lyn, Sorceress, Catwoman (Julie Newmar) etc. And a few others I dare not mention.

Ah, warping could be a factor. I do see some pics of the racks standing upright, with weapons in, so the options seem to be: not all were affected; some people spend ages carefully posing the rack (or tack it down); or mine has warped.
