Does anyone here have the Eaglemoss Enterprise D dedication plaque? If so, did you figure out a way to mount it on the wall? (lemmy.world)

I can't figure it out. It isn't huge, but it's heavy. Specs are 9 x 2 x 12 inches - ‎1.52 pounds. And it's totally smooth on the back. Nowhere to put a hook. Has anyone figured out a way to do it?

The picture is where I have it now. On the mantle, next to Robbie. But I have a giant Spock on my wall and I want it next to him.

I didn't consider that. I'll have to see if it is magnetic. I don't know where a magnet is offhand, but that's a great idea. It does feel like metal and it's so heavy... plus Eaglemoss stuff is good quality.

Just a quick search across printables and thingiverse to show what some people are doing with eaglemoss. May find something that matches your needs exactly if there’s somebody who can print it (or via your library)

Or as inspiration for any woodcraft or other diy solution.

Another one that comes to mind would be some kind of acrylic/plexi case but that gets real pricey real fast.

I think that someone else's suggestion of command strips is probably easier. I'd have to figure out how to use the library's 3D printers to do it that way because I don't have one. They make you take a class to do it too. But thank you for the suggestions.

Command strips are great for that. And obvious now that it’s mentioned. They even gave some heavy duty ones if you’re really worried about it dropping.

I didn't even know such things existed! I'm going to the hardware store to pick some up later today.
