Out of a dozen display stands so far, this was my first disappointment. First and foremost, on my sample, the tolerances had so much slack, it leaned. I needed several layers of scotch tape to shim tight enough to hold together. Expecting two studs to hold something as heavy as a mech on a vertical surface is a lot to ask of Lego. My Vader dropped constantly whenever I walk into the room. I'm still trying to figure out a solution for that. When I do get him to stay, he becomes very nose heavy, so much so, I can balance in on the very tip of the base. Granted I added a cape and a few extra bricks, but I still would have expected the Center of Gravity to be more toward the center of the stand. Nothing I can't work around (or use for a Minifig!), however, I wouldn't buy it again for any of my other Mech's. Having said all that, the other eleven stands I have so far worked flawlessly.
