New Witty F-14 Stands

I got my new Witty stands for my Witty F-14 today and there pretty cool.
They mount on a little different then the other stands.
Check out the pics.

Re: New Witty F-14 Stands

Looks pretty cool! Out of curiosity, with the clasp around the beavertail like that, is it possible to display the F-14 with the hook down? (Witty currently makes the only diecast F-14 with a droppable tailhook...)

I don't think while it's on the stand you can drop your hook.

Re: New Witty F-14 Stands

Is the stand metal or plastic?

If plastic, I have my doubts as to its long-term durability and foresee 'crash landings' in the future.

The stands are made out of metal.
