Patriot Collectibles 1/6 Figure Case

[mustang33guy]

Hey Everyone! I'm working on a figure case for sale and wanted to gauge interest and get feedback from Fellow Freaks. The company name will be Patriot Collectibles. Our launch product will be this case with some other 1/6 related accessories to follow!

Below I have posted the specifications of the case and some pictures of the prototype with a Hot Toys Darth Vader inside for scale. The case will come as a break down assembly and in pieces, will ship flat and would just have to be put together before displaying. Its very easy and all the tools required would be included in the set. Right now we only have 1 size to start but new models can be added to the line as the product grows and we see more of a demand for certain sizes.

Basically I started this endeavor because I have a modest collection of 1/6 scale figure (about 5 or 6) and I wanted to find some really nice cases without paying a fortune to display them in. However, when I researched I couldn't find anything that fit the bill under $100.00 that was either a stock molded unit or custom case that you would have to order from a fabricator. I know that most collectors show off their awesome collections in an Ikea Detolf or some other kind of large cabinet which is wonderful for a substantial collection. My solution is more geared towards those who have a more modest selection of figure(s) or those who want to highlight certain "grail" type figures in their collection.

Patriot Collectibles 1/6 Scale Figure Case Specifications:

-Overall Dimensions (10.885" W x 7.885" D x 15.250" H)
-Inner Case Dimensions (10.125" W x 7.125" D x 14.875" H)
-All Clear Pieces are precise cut and made from a very durable/high quality 1/8" and 1/4" Acrylic
-Corner moldings are cut to exact size and are colored to enhance the appearance of the case (Launch color is Black)
-All hardware needed is included in the set
-Construction is very easy and takes about 10-15 min
-End result is a high end finished case that displays your collectibles proudly without breaking the bank








I have a website in the works so soon I will be posting the link to that. But any feedback would be great and any questions you have I would be happy to answer, thanks!

That looks great. Nice basic design that accentuates the figure. Good luck and keep us posted on the progress.

I really like it!

I may have missed it, but what is the price-point?

Looks nice!! I'd definitely be interested if the price is right as I agree with you that the prices of most individual figure cases are more than an entire Detolf!! :dunno

Thanks! And I have priced the unit and all its contents at several manufacturers and I am looking at pricing it around $45.00-55.00 to start. Ideally I would like that number to go down to about $35.00-$40.00, once things get going and the quantities reflect the demand I am very sure I can get down to those lower numbers. Another main component of this venture is that I want all of the products included to come from and be manufactured in the USA. I believe its important to bring this kind of businesses back to the states. So everything you see incorporated in the kit is done here in the US. Again thanks for the positive comment!

Yes I totally agree! It's hard to justify it when trying to compare it apples to apples something like this to a large display case like a Detolf. Thankfully I'm not trying to compete with that kind of displaying because lets be honest you really can't be that price. My purpose with this case is to have the ability to highlight a select few figures in your collection that you want to stand out on their own with the potential limited space that a lot of collectors have. As of right now the case in the pictures attached to this post is sitting beautifully on my office desk right next to my computer as I type this response. And I must say I am very happy to be able to see Darth Vader all day, everyday and not just when I get home at night. I've attached a picture below of how I currently have him. Again thank you for the nice comment!

Hey guys! Here are some other pictures of the case with a different type of figure in it and with the top off an base detail. As you can see DX style stands fit very nicely inside!
