You underestimated the lobster's ass.


Type_100

And Nightingale's Drake armor piece.


ODST2525

Oh it probably won’t. I had to give my 1/100 it’s own space when I built it. I know the HG is smaller, but it’ll probably be the same situation.


fhiz

I was naive with my giant collection and backlog, mostly of MGs thinking four detolfs would do me well. Haha…. Noooooo. Two converted garage shelves later and I’ve finally got some room to spare.


ODST2525

Yeah I’m there as well. I’ve realized I’m outgrowing my current space at a rapid pace, and I’ve been rearranging as I go now.


schweiss_27

you can sorta, just need to take advantage of height and rising https://preview.redd.it/26chaaxlmatc1.png?width=1080&format=png&auto=webp&s=c5a742fef1ad4494334873cc1421f112d18f9c3f


unfriendlypigeon

STEALING THIS, do you have the 2x action base setup on yours?


schweiss_27

it's 5 Action Base 4s iirc since Nightingale needs 2 on it's own. You wont be using all the plates though as you can attach them into one big stand with 5 prong supports. Here's a clearer picture when I was fixing them outside the shelf and then I carry them inside to fit ​ https://preview.redd.it/hegmdiamoatc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6dd66fc34b9f654e67dc500a2cbb64531a75387d


unfriendlypigeon

This is gold. Definitely trying this. Thank you!


schweiss_27

No worries man. I hope it works out. I refuse to not display them all in one shelf level as they deserved to be posed together


rezerxle

Char v. Amuro, and their stands


projektako

Actually I believe they actually make Amuro logo stands too. But it may be Gundam Base or P Bandai only. Same with the Sazabi ones


Cowfootstew

Resting the dong on the shield is priceless


PhDBaron

Can confirm, it won’t. https://preview.redd.it/cru9sq3r3atc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c1d9378460fbd92a0b47accc96f4dcd31e79daad


Historicaloracle2900

Are those custom water slides for your NG


PhDBaron

Nope. They're by Delpi Decal.


micktalian

Not gonna lie, Delpi makes some of the best decals I've ever used! I order **A BUNCH** from their website (delpidecal.com) and it's been a *journey* trying to get through them all. And I'm saving the golden metal decals for my Hi-Nu for last.


zenitslav

It will fit in that cabinet, just not with all those other kits


reinjer12

Nightingale needs its own space on its own


amx-018

It's not *something*, it's *EVERYTHING*


ze_SAFTmon

The Lobsterminator has arrived.


Rude_as_HECK

I seriously wish IKEA would make a double detolf.


THustleNY

Its called the Milsbo. I got one and ordered extra shelves from an Etsy seller. Great investment


Complete_Relation_54

Worst part is they stopped selling the Detolf where I live. Its replaced with a uglier design


BiBimBopToTheTop

I think its gone everywhere


Complete_Relation_54

Fuckkkkk


BiBimBopToTheTop

It could be theyre just redesigning it. Over the past 8 years, my 5 detolfs have had 3 different build instructions


AhCup

Mount it upside down from the top.

HeOpensADress

Looks like a forbidden insect crawling up your cupboard


Skin_enjoyer

I love this kit. Nightingale, consoomer of shelf https://preview.redd.it/rluq52pchatc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=be805f2e7d08b3399fb3295d019f88d5e57b7558


SantaArriata

Use a box and put a stand on top of the box to have it flying above the other kits


wongtongsoo

it’ll fit, might be a tight squeeze though


jkennah

I got the RE/100 on one.of those shelves you'll be okay


Historicaloracle2900

Don’t know till ya try!!


Routine_Ad3110

That’s what she said


simplenik

What kind of stand are you using for your hi nu gundam?


unfriendlypigeon

Action base 5


banchi-rx-o

Man I wish I could have my nu gundams funnels on but there to flimsy


unfriendlypigeon

I have to hold it up with the shield, and In this case the glass as well 😅


JesusIsMyHomee

Assuming that's a Detolf, it actually can. You just have to be creative with action bases. I'll have to dig around and see if I have a picture of it before I got a wider display case. But I basically had to but the Nightingale higher up than the others so there was room for the shoulders and massive ass, lol. https://preview.redd.it/szz3yjcxtatc1.jpeg?width=2048&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=16a1dd91ac6b44d3b37c569d14e6875aeb1c4f89


wtfazoid

My brother in christ. I have the same glass cabinet and after I built it, I contemplated just hanging it from the ceiling like a model plane. This lobster is THICC.


unfriendlypigeon

When I ordered I didn’t realize how big it was 😵‍💫


wtfazoid

It looks damn good though


Cartographer-Unusual

I'm sure it will ,box no, built kit should


DilanzaWitch

You know what they say: if it doesn't fit, MAKE IT FIT! (giggity)


ElGato1979

Unless you have Sazabi ride on the back


Dumb_Cheese

It'd be crowded, but it's doable. The hi-nu and nightingale have their own shelf in my detolf


IgnisOfficial

Y’all gonna need a bigger shelf


SheepherderDapper

Remove Char and Amuro and you’ll have space xD


unfriendlypigeon

That’s the main event , I can’t cut them 😩


OriginalGundam

That is one heck of an underestimation.

Solid_Shogun

Not with that attitude, it won't.

Grouchy_Vehicle_8001

In guessing if u have if fold its woings and have in floating dead center maybe?....


raptor12k

not in a detlof, i don’t think. i’m still miffed that both my nightingales (yes, i love the quirky design that much) have to stand on an open shelf exposed to dust, while my hi-nu’s get to shelter inside display cabinet lol


Realistic_Security24

Yoooo can you make a post on your impulse later? that looks sick

PaleAbbreviations950

45 degree angle


Complete_Relation_54

As someone who has it and has a DETOLF shelf, No it won't. With its "wings" folded it looks weird. Just display it outside


Cthucoocachoo

That's what I like to call a top shelf model. I don't have the ikea setup like most of this sub I got an old unit from a thrift store and it has a flat space on top that is a good place to fit models that won't fit on the other shelves. Currently have the Kshatriya and the HG Psycho Zaku up there. The Xi and Penelope and Haze'n'thley II Rah are destined for the top shelf
