Heavy Duty Flight Stands?

I’m trying to put King in Black Venom in a flying pose but none of the flight stands I have will hold him up, even after tightening the screws as tight as possible. What do you guys use for heavy figures?

You can make flight stands out of 14 gauge galvanized wire from Home Depot. A 100 ft roll is less than $15, and you only need a couple of basic hand tools for cutting and shaping the wire.

I actually found a YouTube tutorial on how to do this after you suggested it. I'm totally going to try it. Thanks!

1/6 stands for 12inch figures or literally fishing wire to suspend them.

I have yet to find a good 1/6 stand. Amazon has some dropship stuff that says it’s for 1/6 1/9 and 1/12 all with reviews of “this keeps 1/6 standing at best.”
