I've been looking for a good clear display shelf, I was recommended Ikea's detolf but it looks like its been discontinued.

Will I be good just grabbing any copycat off amazon or are there any recommended alternatives?

We had a thread talking about glass display cases about a month back with a few links to different ones. If you've got the space for them, the double door ones are a better option than the detolf knock offs imo.

Unfortunately I don't have the space for that which is why I'm opting for detolf knock offs

designer hated /toy/
the detolf was intended to show off kitchenware and vases
designer had it taken down from ikea

If you're referring to that interview from that toy site that was fake.

Unless there's another one where the actual designer came out about that, but it doesn't really make sense because Ikea still offers display cabinets that look similar to the detolf.

IKEA discontinues things from time to time, like a little metal locker I had my eyes on for a time. Sometimes they come back updated.

Maybe it got too expensive to produce or something. I remember they had made the shelves thinner with like half the weight capacity by the end and they were like $130 compared to the $60 they started as.

I feel like that was probably one of the most successful parody stories there was since nobody knew what the hell toyfarce was back then and just saw it on toynewsi. A bunch of people, myself included, fell for it at first.

Actually not a terrible price. I wonder how the quality is or if it's a bit sturdier than the detolf.

Some one a year or two ago recommended a Neutype glass cabinet to me, finally magaed to get one last summer. I had issues with mine being delivered, first one to my house and it was completely shattered before it got off the truck, second was to Lowes, and they only shipped half (it comes in two boxes) and the third finally got there complete and in one piece. It was pretty easy to assemble and looks really nice, I don't feel like it's going to break or anything.

I'm kind of really, truly, absolutely, totally surprised that there's not a company out there who expressly understands there's a market for action figure buyers wanting glass-enclosed shelving with LED lights built-in. It's confounding.

If it was in a similar display/cabinet thread on here, that might've been me. Sounds like you went through a hassle, but glad it worked out in the end. But, yeah, got mine early 2023 from Lowes and it's held up well. Looking at my detolfs and seeing the metal frame on the sides kind of annoys me now.

>>11283017
Some cabinets are starting to implement them. I mentioned this one last thread. Someone reviewed it on youtube since then and compared it with detolfs.

I have an Ikea Fabrikor and I love it. The viewing angles aren't great, but it's super sturdy.

it's gonna get dusty on the stuff inside the cabinet. I'd rather minimise the amount of cleaning I do
