Title: Show me how you display G4s
Post by: sd_dreamcrystal on January 26, 2012, 07:32:34 PM
Hey guys! Currently I have a bit of a dilemma! I'm running out of space on a shelf that I'm currently displaying most of my ponies and my G4 Shelf on it is to the point that I need to find away to pretty much display them easily! I would make my own step shelf but my last attempt kind of didn't work so well D:

So how are you guys showing them off? Fuel the ideas if you will :)

I posted at the brag arena not too long ago a picture of my current display shelf with my G4s :) Here it is:

I used the cardboard display that comes with the set of blind bag ponies from TRU. The spaces are the perfect size for normal G4s! For the center I'm just using tiny white delivery boxes (and for Ploomette a spray can cap LOL), but even long pieces of 2 x 2 or 3 x 3 styrofoam would work well for doing step displays. In the lower level of my display my MIB ponies are on top of a styrofoam piece of 2 x 2. It looks ok because my shelves are white, but you can also wrap them with something else to combine with the color of your shelf :) . Hope this helps!  :good:

Oh I didn't think about Styrofoam! I actually might have some of that laying around I can use XD

Thanks! XD Though I can't take credit for the nail polish rack idea--got it from someone on here. The standard G4s work great on them too. 

Yep, the Luna is a Japanese release and the Artemis is an American one

Wow... I love that display WeepingPiano!

here's how I have mine.  I used an expandable spice rack and then larger boxes in the back for the Fashion Style ponies.

A lot of my G4s are on my desk surrounding a photo of my beloved deceased guinea pig Vixen. I call them her pony honor guard. One single and most of my blind bags are above on my desks's wraparound shelf and Rainbow Dash and Applejack are on top of the tv in my bedroom.

I love the idea of using a nail polish rack for the blind bags!  That's great!  These displays are all so creative!


Here's my display... I just found the little shelves today.  They are these little bamboo/wooden spice rack things for pantries... they have three rows so they are just perfect for the G4's.  I haven't tested out how they work with my G1's but I really like how well they work here.

And this shelf is right below the other shelf.  I only picked up a couple spice racks just to test them out... so next time I go in, I'm going to grab a few more.  They were only $5!

Where did you find those at? They'd be perfect for what I want to do! Though for some of the other Gens I might need to find some that are taller XD

Target has an expandable rack that some of the G3s are on.  G4s in the front of them.  One rack on top of DD's bookcase, one on top of a shoe rack that is serving as a stable for ponies.  Must find nail polish rack...

the stores are li'l woodzeez general store and bakery playsets. they suit the g4s quite well and have a lot of accessories. though for Rarity's shop in the middle i used only a few pieces from the general store and bought a little sewing machine and basket of sewing accessories from the doll house furniture area in hobby lobby.
