Flight stand

The flight stand is a figure mounting system used for displaying action figures in mid-air, rather than standing on a surface. This allows them to be supported in poses that would otherwise be impossible if the figures were balanced on their own. Typically, flight stands consist of a large flat base and an arm that can be used to hold figures.

Some Transformers toys have hexagonal/circular flight stand ports that allow them to be directly fitted onto standardized 3mm flight stand joints.

Known toy molds with flight stand ports

Note: The vast majority of flight stand compatible ports found on figures are at the base of the spine, or between the legs of a figure. Unless noted otherwise, they're likely found there on your figure.
