Posted: Tue Nov 14, 2017 1:12 pm Post subject: HCG Tomenosuke Blaster stand options? |
|
|
Hi all,
I'm sure this has been asked many times before but the search facility didn't come up with anything definitive on this so apologies in advance if I'm covering very old ground.
I just bought one of the HCG Tomenosuke Blasters and would like to display it on a stand. What are my options? Does anyone here made a good looking one?
Thanks in advance,
Harry _________________

Hi Harry!
Good to see you here. I'm over here a lot now.
Deal direct with Mune as CC said. He's really on the case.
Cheers,
Karl |

Thanks both. I should have said originally that I'm not too keen on the HCG stand, which is why I was looking for alternatives. That said it's not as bad in clear acrylic so I might pick one of them up after all.

Does RAC Props still do their clear acrylic version? I rather liked it. |

Yeah, I like the standard clear acrylic Coyle Stand.
Don't see Rich Coyle hanging around this Forum much nowadays.
Maybe send him a PM.
The Airsoft gun stand on ebay mentioned in the above post
is kind of cool too. |

I like this a lot.
I need to get back to making mine though. They need to be redesigned a bit for all the blasters with longer grips though.

Thanks Andy,
I actually have one of those stands and my blaster is on it at the moment. It's pretty nice but I feel it takes a little of the focus away from the piece.

Metal on metal is never a great idea as far as the finish goes. |

Cheap. Simple. Blaster appears to float. Place to put stand in the middle. |
These are very similar to the ones I used to do. Had issues with my guy though. Half expected him to start selling them himself. I don't think it is the same guy. Either way I did a lot of finishing on them to let them fit the blaster correctly, and they would be too short for a blaster with a longer grip like a Tomenosuke.

My favorite BR blaster stand is one that was created by eltee about nine years ago. (Whoa, where did the time go?!) I took a bunch of photos back then that showed off the stand nicely, but have been able to find only this one:
You can find detailed descriptions of the stand in this nine-year-old thread:
http://propsummit.com/viewtopic.php?t=1013&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=eltee&start=0
There used to be many more photos in the thread, but sadly all but one of the links seem to be outdated.
I have no idea whether these stands are still available. But if you like the stand, Harry, it might be worth sending a PM to eltee to see whether he might be willing to accommodate you.
I love mine! _________________ "Your old titles mean nothing here... Captain!" |

Hi
How about my blaster stand?
From overseas you can buy from HLJ.
Excuse me. Now I am out of stock so please give me some time.
