Great use of popsicle sticks too! Love what you did for the wood flooring with them.

This playset was created by Dida for 8" figures. I shrank it down for 4" scale then created two extra panels for the top sides.

I took these 3 box liners and created this Dr. Strange playset.

"Far away in some dark dimension beyond the comprehension o mere human beings, the mysterious Dr. Strange battles the evil Xandu for the fate of Earth.

Box liners come in handy for that!
I'm using a target exclusive GI Joe one for my Villains shelf, combined with the Destro SDCC exclusive box for the crest behind the throne. I got the SDCC box from something I ordered, forgot what, but they shipped what I bought in it, and it has become a part of my display ever since.

I'll try to get pics of that later. I completely forgot about that until you mentioned box liners! It was one of the things I absolutely adored about the multi-packs of GI Joe and Marvel stuff!

Personally I didn't like these when I got them but I held on to them anyway. I feel that the best one so far is the Avenger one, looks like interior wall panels. With just a little bit of brain power they could do this good every time. Danger room wall panels with the Xmen would have been great.

Picked this up at a thrift store today for $3. I don't know what it is but I know it is missing a lot, however I don't care, it will make a great Frankenstein's Castle. It says Hasbro 1986 on the bottom.

I bought this frozen castle on eBay,dirt cheap. It works great for she-ra and the pop.

I bought this at Walmart. It could easily work as any figure playset.

I picked up the latest set of Gotham figures for their backgrounds. They remind me why I dislike larger scale figures.

Either way I like the backgrounds. VHACK for 1:18 scale

Bookshelf


Dumpster and alleyway


Arkham Gate

Same reason I got the McFarlane sets, he does really bad figures but great playsets.

Holy crap, this thread is AWESOME. I live for playsets and dioramas.

Have a few ideas to add, but we'll start with this one. 1:18 scale, part of the Mortal Kombat line from a year or two ago - Shao Kan's Arena

....

um, okay, I guess I'm considered a "new member" (despite joining 2 years ago) and can't post links or pics.

Google Shao Kan's arena and/or Mortal Kombat Playset. It's very cool...

I was in a Walmart today and saw the BvS Batcave marked down to $88.

And so it begins...

Been eyeing the Gundam chain base sets and finally got the set of 10(sets A-H with doubles of sets A & B). Single set is a wall and floor with various accessories- robotic arms, support beams, etc. Totally modular so you set it up any way you want.




X-Men Danger Room

I think it's too much grey for my liking, but it kind of reminds me of Aperture from Portal 2.

Came across this playset. Kind of cool looking Egyptian themed temple.





Here is a review with it for scale.

This container holds a roll of tie wrap, like you find on your bread. It is used by surveyors on the ship channel to attach tags to sample bottles. There would be a clip on the top to cut the wire, which I have removed.

Note the size makes it perfect for 4" figures and useless with 6" figures, making 6" figures useless, right Mr. Stall? Right!
