MOC: Krana Rack

This compact Krana rack design is by BS01’s Swert.

I’ve seen plenty of displays for BIONICLE collectibles, although I can’t remember any that took the extra effort to make the display case itself look as good. Swert tells me the krana stay in place quite well too. After after an unintentional drop test, only one managed to escape!

It doesn’t have a proper backing built in to make the masks pop out, so it won’t look as good without a proper black or solid background. You do have the benefit of turning it around to see inside however, where it looks just as good. I particularly like how the tiny green studs contrast with the black frame from behind. My one concern about the design is that those little tiny studs. It seems every single one of the transparent ones attached to a stud have split at their base over the years, so anyone copying the design may want to go for the solid colors. Otherwise you might have to replace them every few years.

Here is a couple shots Swert included to show off how the offset spacing works.
