Hopefully these stick around for those people saving for one. 🙂 I think there have been enough made for the instant buyers, so supply is meeting demand in that area. I know there are people still wanting the two black Flap Cats that were in the store a while ago in small quantities, hopefully more of those are made soon.

I was planning on putting my OWs and Emperor alone (one OW or emperor per shelf) or perhaps the emperor in company with a fledge and the Emerald OW in company with the emerald lap… Then there would be 32 lb left to go before reaching the max load on the OW/lap shelf and about 36 left to go on the Emperor/fledge shelf… Many lb left to go in other words… Should not be a problem then?That sounds fine in theory. 🙂 One on of my shelves I have an OW, Lap and Fledgling and they’re doing good. That’s about half the maximum weight capacity but I can’t fit anything else on due to space lol!

Ikea glass shelves are generally tempered and they withstand the weight pretty well. Mine are holding up fine. Two Old Warriors are no problem for the 25kg/55lb shelves since they’re about 30lb according to the store. 🙂 But as twindragonsmum said, the trick is to not overload past the 25kg weight limit and you should be safe.
A while ago I kitted out my room with alot of Laxvik units from Ikea:

http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/60114744
http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/50114749I found the weight limit on the site helpful, I never went over the 25kg. Once converted to lbs, I just used the weights of the sculpts given in the store for reference so that I didn’t overload them.
I know they’re probably slightly different to your unit but I’ve found Ikea to be very reliable quality wise. I also have one of their wooden shelving units for Windstones. 🙂

Or a bunch of rabid dogs fighting over the few goodies we’re given. XD
I saw 3 youngs and 2 mothers when I got mine but I could have been a bit late and there may have been more. I also saw 3 of the Gargoyles which look absolutely stunning.
I LOVE this colouration but the test paint is going to be out of my budget so I’m going to squeek* for a limited production run of these please Melody! 🙂
I’m liking this lighter version of the Silver. I bought one to see how it looks compared to my darker first batch Silver. ^_^
Now all I need is the Slate baby lol!
Got my two male unis together at last for a comparison pic. I like them both equally as I like those shades of grey and beige so I couldn’t choose a favourite. ^_^
The slate is on the left and the silver is on the right.
I got mine from the first batch today yay! ^_^
The markings probably differ slightly on all of them, would be interesting to see others.

That Dark Bay Unicorn is gorgeous… I’d love to see a limited production/production family of those. ^_^
I should be getting both the Silver and Slate males soon so I could do a comparison pic on those. I bought the Silver baby but I don’t have the Slate baby. I think I prefer the Silver on the baby though, purely because there looks to be more colour variation and I like the darker shading on the face. ^_^
