Figmental's Collection and Customs

[figmental]

Looks great Figgy....

Personally, to make it more Muppety, I would put the posters at odd angles, to look more messy and thrown together....
But otherwise, I love your stage set!
I can't wait to see completed pictures!

It doesn't already?

I have another pic to post in a second.

Thanks for the comments!

My "Backstage" Area. Saving a bit of space for when I get my Sweetums.

This week I'll try and add a roof to the stage, maybe even curtains, and a lot more posters.

And figures, If I get any more.

I kinda made that stage to show how you can make one with such a low budget (mine was about 20 bucks) with:

-wood dollhouse floor- $9.99
-Styrofoam base- $5
-Brick scrapbook paper- $.50 a piece

Then some tape, crazy glue, printed posters, and cardboad.

I still want a few vinyl bricksheets, however.

Scored a Pepe off of Ebay for 11 bucks... it seems like a bargain compared to what he's going for these days... $40-60 for the regular and vacation version.

Has anyone ever wondered about buying a Model Studebaker for a Muppet Movie diorama?

I know I've considered it, and definitely looking into it...

I looked into it. But I couldn't find anything that was to scale with the Palisades line.
Also, when I looked into it, I didn't have any other PVC figures that I could've used.
I'm pretty sure there's a 1:18 scale Studebaker made at some point...

Cool idea... but I don't think my painting skills are up to Dr. Teeth's, and a pre-camouflage Studebaker wouldn't be nearly as much fun.

True, very true.

So, Gonzolover, none of them are in scale? That's to bad...

 

[GonzoLover85]

No, nothing to scale.... not that I could find anyway.

The car would have to be roughly 20'' - 24" in length to fit a Palisades Fozzie, Kermit and gang in there.
I'm sure there'd be someone with the time and willingness to custom create one somewhere online.
