Here are a couple pics of how my Pee Wee and bike are currently displayed. I use a metal stand that I had which many have been using to display extra head sculpts at the end of the stand, but I simply put a crotch grabber "U" shaped holder there and have my bike supported this way. The front end of the bike is slightly raised as the stand it still too tall, but it's the best I could come up with for now and seems to keep my bike more securely standing. I think it still displays nicely and you can't really notice it at first glance. I used this when I had the set on display at Famcon too. Just some extra peace of mind...

Oh boy..! Too bad about that piece breaking off. The bike really is delicate with all kinds of fragile parts. I would guess good old Super Glue would do the trick? That what I would use anyways..! Looks fantastic otherwise and I like that Oompa Loompa!

Sadly I can't even find the part I've looked high and low for it need to paint over the missing part 2.

Haha thanks man that's Rocco's Ompa.

Godfather, so GLAD you got the piece and are enjoying it. It was my pleasure to pass it on to such a TRUE PeeWee fan. Both the bike and Rainman's work are beyond INCREDIBLE! I knew I had to pass this on to someone with the true admiration for the artistry and the passion for the character, since I loved the pieces as well, but they just didn't fit in with where my collection was headed.

The pics look FANTASTIC!!! So great to FINALLY see it all on display! :wink1: :clap

Bummer about the broken piece. Gary, thanks for reaching out to Godfather so quickly. I love people on this board like this. It truly makes the hobby shine and reminds us of why we love it so much to begin with! :yess:

Thank's man I appreciate it... Was surprised at how quick it arrived. Building it was fun after spending an hour finding the foot pegs only to find out they were already on the body aha, Would like to thank you for passing this in to me and being great through the payment plans etc...... I agree both artist Gary and rainman did a fantastic job.

Also thank you to Gary for helping me with the broken pieces thanks man.
