Can anyone recommend a UK based bespoke action figure display cabinet maker?

Hi guys,

Can anyone recommend a UK based bespoke action figure display cabinet maker? My figures have been tucked away out of harms way for far too long and I'm itching to get them out on display.

I'm not really a massive fan of the generic wall to ceiling cabinets and my collection is not really big enough anyway, so I'd set my heart on a bespoke cabinet. The ones I really like the look of are done by http://www.figuredisplay.com but the price is quite hefty and they don't ship to the UK. Storage and shipping fees make the cabinet too expensive.

So I opted to buy one of the display cabinet graphic kits and get it custom built in the UK. So I'm looking for a tangible recommendation for a reasonably priced, reliable UK based cabinet maker that I can look at previous work done, read reviews and ensure my money is safe and well spent.

The type of cabinet I mean can be seen in the photos below.

Any suggestions?

Cheers Jay

I'd recommend Matt Volpato, I don't know if he is on any forum but he is on facebook through the group 'Star Wars Displays'. Does lots of nice displays for vintage figures at affordable prices.

Very good call. Just checked him out on Facebook. His displays are stunning.

Just looked at his stuff and it could well be just what I'm after. I'll message him on Facebook. Top recommendation. Thank you.

Lucked out. He designs mighty fine graphics and acrylic displays but sadly no cabinets. Any other recommendations happily received.

Thanks for the tip, I've sent a PM.

He doesn't make cabinets anymore

Hi,

Sorry to bring back a very old thread but I'm on the verge of doing some high quality display cabinets and currently looking to gauge an interest at the moment.

They are very modular in design and can be various colours or finishes. You can even add your own decals like I've used in the example images of figure display.

The size of this one is 80cm x 130cm and the shelves are 56x16cm. If there is enough interest then I can also consider other sizes.

They are designed to be flush fitted to the wall.

You need to add imagery through the attachments tab directly below the save draft, preview and submit buttons. I can't see these you've attached

Ah sorry my mistake.

I've spotted that now and added them.

Forgot to say that LED lights can also be hidden nicely inside too.

Nice looking displays, I'd suggest starting your own thread and including pricing information if you want to gauge interest.

For what it's worth I would get rid of the branding, I wouldn't want that on my display cabinet

Ok thanks for comments.

I only added my own decal as an example but obviously would look better with a nice Star Wars logo.

I'll start up a new thread later on when I get a chance.

Nice looking cabinet, hope they are successful for you, looking forward to seeing your sales thread

I've now started my own thread in the General Sales area for this.

Thanks,
Matt
