How will you display your rings?

Postby vbartilucci » Fri Nov 06, 2009 10:23 am

Or indeed will you display them?

searching under "Ring display" on ebay brings up any number of display cases, fake hands and other sorts of ways to show off rings, none of the terrible expensive. Anyone got any cool plans?

I still have my Flash ring (I got extras - anybody need one?) and the older GL rings to show off as well. I never got a Legion Flight ring, tho the ones I've seen on ebay are pretty nice. I may go for one.

Currently, I wear a Green Lantern ring made out of silver that I bought on eBay years ago. Once I get all of these, I may wear them to match my outfit/mood or the event I'm attending. If that ends up being the case, I'll only wear the black ring to funerals and weddings. :D

If I don't do that, then I'll put them on the strap of my name tag for the LCS that I work at.

I am putting all the colored rings with their respected corps toys. I am making a display that has at least one toy representing each corp and made a custom poster that has all eight symbols on it. It will look awesome when I am done with it.

Sure.

And then, when I get the green ring, I can get one of those marriage-like interlocked hands display and create a true tribute to the GL/Flash manlove as written by Geoff Johns. :P :lol:

A toy representing each corps, as opposed to the actual BN action figures? Because they each come with a ring, IIRC.

Dying to see what toy represents greed. Ash Ketchum, perhaps?

I meant to say Hal Jordan with the green ring, Sinestro with the yellow ring, Saint Walker with the blue ring, etc. Sorry should of worded it better.

Tough one. I want to wear them to suit my mood or outfit - defenitely gotta wear the matching ring when I wear a Corps shirt. I'd also like to get each Corps Leader action figure and place the rings by them on the brightly colored buttons my LCS sold that spell out each Corps' "emotion."

I'll only get spares for the red and green rings.

You could get the JLA Trophy Room thing, they're all metal

I'd love one. not sure if you have enough for everyone who wants one.



I'm thinking about putting them in some kind of keychain. but they are a little to bulking for all of them to fit.
