The Transformers Armada Unicron toy was designed to sit horizontally on a table, but can't stand on its own vertically. I designed this stand to allow it to both display in the vertical profile. This is the second stand I designed, [the first stand](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2481392) requires a steel rod to support the figure at a higher profile.
All components of this stand can be printed, no other materials are needed. This stand will hold Unicron just above the surface of the display base. The arms are designed to intersect the holder at the balance point, so that it won't be front or back heavy while being displayed.
The images attached are from a print at .2mm layer height. To get a smoother layer transition around the ring in the base, print at a .15 or .1 layer height instead.
I printed this with 15% infill, and it's working fine, but increasing the infill will also increase the rigidity of the arms and the holder that Unicron rests on. The holder must be printe
