    Maximilian Figure Stand?

    I just acquired a Mego Maximilian in great shape, but am shocked they didn't make him able to stand on his own like VINCent. Really could use a repro stand.

    LaserMego?

    Also a bit surprising he wasn't engineered to have his arms swivel at the shoulders to menace other figures. I would love to see Hot Toys do the Black Hole robots. Is there a following for the property in Japan?

    I was thinking LaserMego, too--Paul's a genius.

      I thought that VINCent came with a stand too? But yeah, there might be a market for repro stands. Most loose figures never seem to have them (including my Maximillian!)

      That always mystified me too. That's the nice thing about the Italian GiG magnetic Maximillian, his arms can move up and down, AND he can stand on his own (although I still use a doll stand with mine, I don't trust him not to take a header off my shelf one night).

      I don't think Black Hole is exactly huge in Japan, but Medicom did make some Kubricks as a part of their Disney blind boxed series awhile back, so you never know...

        VINCent has a stand, but he is able to stand without it if you're careful.

          Ah, I didn't know that, I've never owned one (yet!).
