Thanks Kyle. Do you buy them with the stands or can they be used without the stands?
I use them without the stands, but I might buy one soon anyways to see how they hold. They have a little rubber hooks on the top where you can hang the jersey. I've had a few of the hooks rip though over time. Here's a photo where you can see most of my jerseys on the mannequins:
I use them for all my jerseys. They're GREAT. I've used around 8 or so of them and 2 popped over time. For the ones that popped, I filled them with newspaper so I didn't have to throw them away. That's the only problem I faced, but you can't really tell that it's an inflatable mannequin when displayed. I highly recommend them.
Manne-King can be pricey - even on their 'used', 'clearance' and 'specials'.
Check you local Yellow Pages or Dex On-Line for USED Store Fixtures or someone like TeBo or the like.
All of my styrofoam MALE mannequin heads for hats come from TeBo (about $7.00 each) and my mannequins come from Used Store Fixture places around Denver as well as Craigslist.
Most of my Mannequin torsos have averaged about $40 - $50 each.
Seeing some of your collections, could you tell me where you purchase the mannequins used to display jerseys? Preferibly I'd like to get one that fits a size 52 baseball game jersey but sturdy enough to be placed on my dresser. Thanks in advance!
