Thanks for the heads up on Hobby Link.  The last set I got was from Amazon, and I can two sets shipped from Japan for the same price as one set Prime shipped from Amazon.

Tamashii stands are your best bet, you can pick up 3 for $8 on Hobby Link Japan. I've seen them at Barnes and Nobles as well.

tamashi stands are pretty good.  you can combine them to get a little more height depending on the weight of the figure.  

these doll stands work well too.  the metal can be bent which can help posing. - http://www.collectingwarehouse.com/Product-Home-Page/Doll-Stands-by-Kaiser/Kaiser-Doll-Stand-2275.html

I've been collecting figures for a couple years now, and have reached the point where everyone standing around has gotten a little bland. What flight stands do you guys recommend using? Cheap and nicer options would be appreciated. Thanks!

Recommended flight stands?
