Nervous Rex Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Sweet, I'll need to pick up another Groot. Is the base from P vs Z mates? Thanks, yep its from the PvZ set from TRU. Its green, i just fiddled with a few phone apps to get this color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or did you make it yourself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or did you make it yourself? I just printed out and glued on to a cardboard, will do the other parts, like the doorway later. The scale is a bit too large, might mess around with that a little bit too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy Wiseau Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 I've been working on a way to display my 'mates in a way that lets them be a bit more dynamic than lining them on a shelf, or putting them in a display case. I bought a few playsets and buildings and turned the top of the dresser in my comic room into a permanent Minimate diorama. Excuse any bluriness. I'm taking these with my phone camera! I'd really like to find a Max Galactus to put in there, but I'm really happy with how it came out. So are Dr. Strange and Wong, since they don't have to be homeless!

MisterPL Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 I'd put a cardboard cutout of Galactus' head peeking up behind the horizon. That's a pretty ambitious display you've got there! I've been thinking about arranging my Minimates by hue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterPL Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 With almost 1,700 in my collection, it'd be a small feat. Maybe just Marvel. Star Trek would be too easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Molybdenum Man Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 From where did you get all those buildings, etc.? Some look like MegaBloks but not all. Looks cool. I agree with making dioramas, its a more rewarding display approach when you can make it work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been thinking about arranging my Minimates by hue. Hey, thanks! Wow, I hadn't thought of that! I'll have to find a nice hi-res image of him. From where did you get all those buildings, etc.? Some look like MegaBloks but not all. Looks cool. I agree with making dioramas, its a more rewarding display approach when you can make it work. The original display had a few MegaBloks sets in it, but I had to take them out as they didn't match as new buildings were put in. So, the biggest one is the Toybiz Daily Bugle set from the 90's. The short gray building and police car are from a Fisher Price Imaginext set, as are the two red buildings. The Sanctum Sanctorum is paper and foamboard from a template that someone made for Heroclix. They had a really nice Baxter Building (that I couldn't fit) and some other neat places. If any one would like a link, just let me know. For a bit of depth, I made some building standees out of paper and extra foamboard. Then behind them, Luke was nice enough to help me out, and have a custom backdrop printed out for me. The bus stop in front of the Daily Bugle is a Kubricks set. Everything else, like the streets, telephone poles, dumpsters, signs, trash cans, etc, are all papercraft templates that I found online. I still need to decide on how I'm going to set my 'mates up, but I figure since I won't be gluing them down, I can change it up every so often. Sorry for the long post, have a picture of Howard waiting for the bus to make up for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeyCrypts Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 pm me that link please. I'm about to move and have some room for bigger dioramas. Also if anyone is aware of an avengers mansion, stark tower or Xavier institute let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthdoughboy Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Yes, please share the link to the Heroclix buildings. I tried looking for them when you first showed off some of them a month or so ago and found nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnim zola Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Agreed, Id also like to spend my money on printing paper buildings for my cats to chew on for authentic battle damage! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Wiseau Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 I'm glad there's so much interest. So, the site I found them on is a German Heroclix site, since the original artist took them down from his site.http://www.heroclix-game.com/heroclix-blog/heroclix-downloads/spielfeld-co/buildings-gebaudeThey come as ZIP files. The instructions are a little lame, but they're easy to figure. They won't be quite to scale, just a smidge too small, but they should work out. The Baxter Building seems a little odd, since there aren't any instructions. It seems like you'd need to print everything except the roof out 4 times. If anyone tries building it, I hope you let me know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
