IKEA Detolf Glass Case

Recommended Posts

I was thinking about picking up a few of these when they are back in stock at my local IKEA in 2 weeks. Does anyone here currently use them? What do you guys think? I looked on eBay and i'm able to buy locks for them too so they'll be protected further from little hands and adventurous animals. Let me know what you guys think.

What is the sell price? I don't have an Ikea within 60mi of me, so I don't know what their pricing is like. I DO know that they have questionable quality, so I would be worried about construction quality and durability.

people use these all over the place. Your ikea is getting them in 2 weeks??? My Ikea person told me they weren't sure when they would be getting them back in stock because the company that makes them has to make the product to Ikea's standards, which is why they had stopped carrying them temporarily in the first place. I hope you're right in that they will be getting these back in the next couple of weeks as I have been waiting forever to get my hands on a few of them for myself.

Plug your zip code in on the ikea website and it should give you an estimate of when more arrive. I also submitted my email to receive a notification when they arrive. Use the link i supplied above to go right to the product page.

 

That is a nice display case. And for the price, that isn't bad at all. I may have to look into a couple of those when it comes time to upgrade my museum.

 

Thats my plan right now. I've acquired a lot of nice pieces in the last year and i need to showcase them off more than on a bookshelf.

I love ikea. The entertainment center i use is from there not to mention 3 media book shelfs, 1 1/2 size media book shelf, and 4 lamps are from there. They have a cafeteria with many delicious items.

 

I recommend the meatballs whole heartedly to anyone that goes to ikea.

 

I don't have a Ikea with any distance to me, but a friend of mine on AiM swears by them.

 

This site has a pretty good tutorial about making the Detolf better at resisting dust. http://www.figure.fm/post/en/1428/DETOLF+Dust+Resistance+Method.html

 

I'll for sure will be looking at this once i pick up these cases.

We have an IKEA in Milton Keynes over here in the UK which stock the DETOLF glass display cabinets and also the optional light fitting which sets the whols thing off really well in my opinion?

 

I bought a 2 pack of lights as I intend to pick up another cabinet after pay day!

 

Here's a quick pic of my cabinet! :tfpwn

    • Please tell me this won't be the only release of TFP Cliffjumper...
    • If you've not had your fill of Transformers collaborative news today, here is some more with a leaked product listing for the Project Knight: Transformers X Knight Rider crossover. We've been dreaming of this one, and it appears a transforming K.I.T.T. will be coming as soon as August! It must be something big and or special with a $49. - Read the Full News Story
    • Tonight on GotBot Goes Live, we talked Transformers news for the newest multipack and some reissues. We also talked collaboratives with TMNT, an Ectotron reissue and, maybe, even Star Wars? Plus, we address the MP Ginrai teaser image and answer who is Riggorus?  
    • EDIT 2: Okay, I think my real problem with this was the marketing image. The main image shows four robot turtles standing together, so I was ready for four toys, not one. Admittedly, I was so disappointed that I did not bother to read the article fully. That's my fault. I apologize. That said, now that I understand it is THE van that turns into a robot, not "robot versions of the four turtles," that makes more sense, but I don't get the four heads. There are images here of a bandana free head which I gather is not included. I would actually prefer a non-specific generic turtle head for the robot. I think that would remove a lot of confusion. At least for me. EDIT 1: My bad, I misunderstood. It's one toy with swappable heads. So, you made a thing based on a four member team, and you only want to sell one toy? You're not even trying to get people to "Collect all FOUR!" You do understand how toy sales work, right? Original Comment: This is a perfectly fine idea executed TERRIBLY. You made four unique toys, each specific to each of the Ninja Turtles, that all turn into the same vehicle? It would be one thing if they joined together to form the van. There have been transformer sets like that before. This is just wasted opportunity. Not to mention, that van exists for the turtles to ride in together as a team, so if they can turn into vehicles ... what do they need a van for? I get that that's their van, and that's cute and all, but ... this is just dumb and disappointing. Why not think about what kind of car each of them would drive based on their personalities, or ask some car company if they want to do a tie-in promotional? What do I want with four copies of the same van and no one to ride in any of them? It makes no sense.
