I have an empty shelf in one of my Detolfs, I'll do a mockup this weekend and post a pic. I think 4 should be able to fit per shelf like I mentioned up above. I have a Detolf that has some car models displayed in it that I think are about the same size as Ridez and I have 6 per shelf- two in front, two in a clear display case in back, and two on top of the display case. It might be possible to display the Ridez like that too, I just need to check. But I'll do that soon and report back :-)


I didn't take pics but I did try it out last weekend and one shelf easily holds 4 Ridez displayed at an angle. It's possible to cram 6 in there if you line them up side-by-side instead of turning them at an angle, but they just look a lot more pleasing turned at an angle I think.


I played around with some Ridez in an empty shelf in one of my Detolfs again as I'm about to go buy some more cases and wanted to see if I could make it work first. Here is what I found:

- There are two common acrylic case sizes for 1/18 scale cars, both are available with clear bases. One is 15-1/2 x 7 x 6 and holds two Ridez nicely but does not fit in a Detolf (but would be great for a shelf display). The other is 13 x 5.5 x 5 and will not hold two Ridez, only one. But it is big enough to perch two Ridez on top of and makes a nice riser for them. So I think that's what I've settled on, I'll put one in the case, two on top and two in front. The Detolf in this pic has a wood grained base but the ones the Ridez will actually go in are black. I don't like the wood grain but it will be covered by a future black foam core diorama. Anyway, that works out to 5 Ridez per shelf or 20 total, plus one of the bigger display cases can go on top and hold two more so 22 total. Right now there are 21 Ridez in the series, but they're not going to stop making them so I'm going to dedicate two Detolf cases to my Ridez collection :-)

I posted a peek at this on IG, but yesterday I set this case up and this is it, a 100% complete set of Dorbz Ridez in all of their glory :-) At least until the next one is issued, in which case I will already be out of room lol That's OK, I'll be happy to build another case :-D I really love how this turned out! It's an Ikea Detolf case with LED strip lighting off of Amazon. The "risers" are acrylic model car displays from Hobby Lobby, the 13 x 5.5 x 5 ones. Really other than the shadow box I built at the top it was all quite easy to set up!

Thank you for all the nice comments :-) I'm in the process of converting a room for more display space but it's taking forever and I got impatient to set up one of the cabinets :-) It's in my bedroom for now but I'll move it when I finish the room. Can't wait to get it done and start setting up more displays!

Thank you again, glad everyone likes it as much as I do :-) I already loved Dorbz Ridez but when I started unboxing them to put in the display I gained a new appreciation for the level of detail on them. I was also a bit surprised at how much smaller they look OOB, some of them (like the Ecto-1 and chimi truck for example) look a lot bigger in the box but when you get them out they're quite small which really raises the "cute" factor I think :-)

Kitzka wrote:But my question is what will you do when you start getting dorbz ridez protos? ;)


I have only seen one go up on Gemini and I did get it! It's the Mystery Machine, I've been meaning to post a pic of it on IG. Fred was a no show so I bought the Werewolf proto to drive it :-) Would love to pick up more protos but the Rides and Ridez just don't seem to come up often, or maybe they sell so fast that I don't see them.

Thank you! There will be another Ridez case :-)

groundhog7s wrote:I totally missed the Invisible Jet at first. That's truly amazing!


Thanks! I put some white and blue LEDs on top of the case to highlight her jet, I did something similar on the Pop Rides shelves and liked it so decided to do the same with her. When I set up the second case I'll put Beast on top to mirror this case!

squidward wrote:I agree with everyone's comments. This looks awesome. Thank you for sharing your display and I look forward to seeing the second Detolf filled soon.


I appreciate it! When I finish the hobby room there will be room for 6 more Detolf cases. This case will move in there and there will be one next to it for more Ridez. The others will get new LED Pop scenes like the two cases in my living room. I think Alien will be the next I build, then Inside Out. Probably Nightmare Before Christmas will follow that. I'm making myself finish the room first though, I don't want it to be my Great Unfinished Project, hahaha!

That's got to be it, Funko has already said SW Dorbz were on the way. But this is the first hint that Ridez would be part of that, so if it is indeed Star Wars he's hinting about then... wow! That's super exciting news =D>

PopGoestheJess wrote:Han Solo in MF?


Would love that or the traditional stand-by X-Wing and Tie Fighter. But given that Brian has already said there will be MoTU Ridez which would have to be animal-based, that opens the door to a Bantha, Varactyl, Dewback or other ride-on creature. I'm stoked about the possibilities :-)

I am beyond thrilled :-) I love the Pop Ride version but I think this one will be even more appealing because of the smaller size. The Ecto-1 Ridez looks so much better than the Pop Ride version- it's smaller, cuter and better detailed. Same with the chimi truck. I think it'll be the same with this Mean Machine :-)

Sooo let's just assume that the "most requested Dorbz license is Star Wars" (I mean what else could it be?). My guess for the very first Ridez would be...

Millennium Falcon with Chewy and Han [-o<
