I know this has been discussed before but I couldn't find the last thread I remember reading.
Who would you recommend buying stands from that are the safest for vintage figures? I know there have been instances of exploding ankles so obviously I want to avoid that & bad stands.

i just bought those chinese gijoe stand lots and sanded the foot pegs down as needed.
use a file or coarse grit sand paper and dont force the foot on the peg. it's not that big of a deal. |

They're cheap, and as an added bonus, the pegs are slightly tapered so you can use them for any of the 82-94 figures. One thing to note, as the earlier figures have smaller holes, you'll want to attach them carefully, and on some figures, they won't be perfectly flush with the base, so don't force them- see the attached pic.
