Bat Gremlin Stand problem

This is a stand for Neca's Bat Gremlin.
as you see it has a crack - probably one or two attempts to attach gremlin will break it.

Can you recommend me a stand that can support Bat Gremlin in FLYING POSE?
PS:
I swear this wasn't a result of ham-handling.
Gremlin usually rests on a box inside of a dark closed with other gremlins (not to protect them from the sun - i just dont want those detailed figures be covered in dust) and stand stands next to it without supporting the figure's weight.

I didn't even use this stand that much...

Tamashii stands are too small to hold up most neca figs, which are usually pretty hefty. If you're going to use a tamashii stand, i would suggest using more than one stand arm to hold the figure up. NECA always includes cheaply made stands with their figures. They do sell stands separately, which are okay. The base is wide enough and the stand arm is thick. It even has an opening claw at the end. It has minor issues though. The arm is strangely constructed, and although I still use it - avoid the suction cup base at all costs. I use it for some very light figma/marvel legends figures and I don't know how many times I've come into my office to see suction cups loose suction and figures knocked over. It's due to the suction cups being too big, so when you press the stand down for suction, the cups bump into each other and over time you end up with knocked over figures.

About the arm construction - It's radically different than most stands on the market. The base of the arm is adjustable and slides out for different heights. It's notched so that it stays at whichever length you like, but stays put due to friction, which I can see wearing out over time. The claw part of the arm is able to adjust on the rotational axis, but it too is also done in segments - the end forms kind of a hexagon and those are the only angles you'll be able to choose from, it doesn't freely rotate like most stands.

There are also Obitsu stands, which are around the same size as Tamashii stands, but cheaper. You have to assemble them, and you can choose from different sized arm lengths, which are included.

I've made a few of these in the past but they're ugly as fuck. Just buy some knockoff Tamashii stands on eBay or AliExpress, I got like 6 of them for 10 bucks and they're literally fine.

Not true. Raiden being held up by an obitsu stand arm for months.

he's not exactly the heaviest figure

i had one holding up an SHF Ryu in a jump kick pose for months and then it just randomly snapped one day. I had another just supporting SHF Broly in a regular standing pose, and that was too much for them too

I got a pack of the obitsu stands and one arm was really tight, but the other was floppy as hell. Seems like the plastic that holds the nut in place was stripped. I do like that the claws are larger than the tamashii claws. I always felt that theirs were too small.

It's not a QC issue, it's more of a basic design flaw. They're dumb enough to include non-aticulating claws with most of their pack-in stands.
