Catchall Thread For 1/18 Scale Compatible Odds And Ends.
« on: August 21, 2018, 08:35:21 AM »
This thread will be for items that are not technically 1/18 toys (can be larger scaled or even non-toy items) but are still useful for 1/18 scale customizing/dioramas.

Michaels has some interesting items for 1/18 scale customizers in their Halloween section.

2 favorites from last year (crystal ball, fountain) return and there are 8 new items that could be of use.

Just great stuff for your Dungeon Dios. I love Halloween. Fall is my favorite time of the year. Thanks for sharing this Dan.

Am I correct in thinking Michaels also sales Bandai Items?

Michaels has a model section and they do have a small Bandai selection. Hobby Lobby does as well.

I went to the Home Depot closest to my house this afternoon to see if any of their Halloween decorations could be useful for customizers.

The 7' long dragon is beautiful but way too big, it would be "Godzilla"-scaled to 1/18 figures.

The smaller 19" long dragons (3 different, all the same sculpt but different decos) are just about perfect despite the lack of articulation. I plan on getting one when I have some fun money.

There were some skeletal animals/dinosaurs/spiders as well that would range from colossal to Kaiju scale compared to 1/18 figures. The spider, which looks like a scaled up version of the Walmart spider from 2 years back, was probably the best one. The spider's legs were not fully unfolded so it would actually have a larger footprint than how it was on display.

Great stuff Dan. I wondered how those dragons would be in real life. They look fantastic. I wonder where one would store one of these huge ones outside of Halloween time?

I saw this awesome electronic giant dragon skull at Target this afternoon. It is over a foot long and has an articulated jaw.

It is only $15.

I plan on getting one next paycheck :)

Thanks for the alert! These Halloween items in 1/18 scale are something special, indeed! And they would go along perfectly with ImperialOfficer's latest custom skeleton based on LEGO Ninjago...

Awesome stuff there!
