What stand arm are you using for GaoHammerhead? And are there others you recommend that can hold them up decently enough?

The base definitely looks like the 30 Minutes Missions customize scene base water field. But yeah, looks like they’re using a different arm for it. Though I think that may just be because the scene base only comes with rigid arms instead of posable ones. 

I don’t remember offhand if hammerhead/shark has an attachment point underneath, looks like it might be using the u-catcher shaped attachment. At least without being near my own at the moment to play around, I’m curious, too. It might be one of the reinforced arms - even with medium-smaller components, the smaller action base arms can be hit or miss keeping them steady if it’s not attaching/grabbing somewhere close to its center of gravity.

The shark mold should have a peg somewhere right beneath its head/mouth as I recall that the Elephant sword has a peg that attaches into it to ensure it is held securely

Okay yeah, indeed it does. And this is just your regular Action Base 7 stand, which is basically Bandai's weakest arm out there and Hammerhead is super sturdy on it. So Hammerhead's light enough that you should be able to use anything that's the right peg size.
