The "Playset" thread

[Roughneck]

Oh and the Turtles were all 5 inch scale.





Man ...I remember the dream I had a couple years back about the 4 foot tall Marvel legend PLayset that was the top bunch of floors of the Baxter Builting. It was killer, it had the roof and the top foor was the ...uh....the Hanger....Couldn't think of the name. It came with a Fantasticar and a Quinjett (for some reason) and had the big door, then it had the living room area and bedrooms and a nursery, it had a huge lab filled with stuff, a working elevator and the part I played with the most in my dream was the Fire Escape Stairwell....it just had a plain stairwell running down the inside corner of the building like every building has.

Man I pined for that thing for weeks after that dream.

It wasn't the Technodrome, that was a separate vehicle, which infortuneately was incredibly small. The playset was some kind of lab if I remember correctly.

Found the Ninja Turtle sets I was talking about:

Pizza Wars: http://www.ninjaturtles.com/toys/1994/pizzawars.htm
Sewer Wars: http://www.ninjaturtles.com/toys/1994/sewerwars.htm
City Wars: http://www.ninjaturtles.com/toys/1994/citywars.htm
Dimension X Wars: http://www.ninjaturtles.com/toys/1994/xwars.htm

There were also a bunch of smaller packs figures, such as Bebop with the Technodrome.

 

[Roughneck]

Oh like Hellu tiny.

I've got one of those...and Asteroid M one for the Xmen...though I think mine is smaller....all Polly Pocket and ****

 

[Invincible]

I liked the Batcave they put out for batman returns (which they proceeded to re issue for every different batman line from hasbro) and the firehouse from ghostbusters.

Yeah, that's pretty much the size mine were, maybe slightly bigger.

Links to a couple of the other sets I had for them. These ones were toys of the weapons of the turtles that could transform into the playsets.

I miss the days of Playsets

 

[newavengers12]

I need playsets dammit.....Needs em bad. So this here thread is where we can talk about various Playsets that are out there and what they go with (Though I imagine it will be mostly ML centric)

Current Playets that are out there.


The Spider-man Alleyway Playset

The TNMT Van

Well I can't find a pic but yu all know what it is...with a little work it's a killer PunisherVan. There is also this one

X-men Lady Liberty

The Buffy Libary (That's how I say it)

The Matrix Chateau

Well Roygh.... The spidey alley playset I bought that one this week at a kb toys near my house. 14.99 clearence. Ill check if there are any other left.

The matrix one, I buy it on Ebay.... for .99 cents and a 5.00 shipping. It was open, not in case, but it is complete. You have seen it in my Figures thread.

The statue of libety I also buy it on ebay for .99 cents and the shipping for this one was 7.00, not bad at all.

That Van is a peg warmer here in PR.....

[newavengers12]

This is how I got my Liberty base placed. I have three of my Ultimates in it... Spidey, Thor and CAP.

My bad for the pics... taken with a cell phone(yeah I work with cell phones so why not)

 

[newavengers12]

This sets are actually very usefull..... I have them with avengers right now, but we can use them for X-Men too... or even villans... like Doom.

 

[ReTrO JuNkIe 42]

here are a couple of "playsets" or bases that i have

 

[spideyboy_1111]

i like the statue of liberty.. but its so out of scale its almost ridiculous

 

[Roughneck]

OH yeah, it's way outta scale...still cool though.

Playsets kick ass. We need more of them. I recently picked up a bunch of Masters of the Universe toys, mostly playsets. That Eternia is MASSIVE, although my favourite had to be the Fright Zone.

I'm actually somewhat encouraged by the playset market at the moment. For a while we had next to nothing(outside of the girls market) but Zizzle seems to have really pushed the playsets with their Pirates of the Caribbean line. Hope to start seeing more, because I'm getting sick of only have micro playsets and things built out of legos and megabloks.

By the way, Megabloks kick ass.

 

[Roughneck]

Rez are these MOTU in Question Modern or classic?

I suppose some MOTU MOdern ones might just be in a six inch scale wont they?

 

[Roughneck]

Is this the Eternia one you refer to?

Apparently that is the largest playset Mattel ever made

 

[Roughneck]

This would be a hair too small wouldn't it?

 

[Invincible]

Its big and ****ty

 

[Roughneck]

What about this one?

Did anyone have a freind growing up who had the Ewok Village?

I don't ask if you had it because the Ewok Villaige, when I was a child, was just like the AT-AT. NO ONE had them, they only had friends that had them.

 

[Invincible]

My uncle has Jabb the hunt with his thorn

 

[Roughneck]

I had a Jabba....No Throne though.

 

[Invincible]

I heard its rare, he bought it when it first came out.

 

[spideyboy_1111]

 

[spideyboy_1111]

i have all of these.. though the outside of kinpins was cool.. the inside and toys were pretty craptastic.. as was the flip and trap playset, the daily bugle is awsome though

 

[Roughneck]

y'know....I've seen that bridge....it's six inch isn't it?
