Indeed! there are many different and useful props well designed and pretty compatible with the joes. the vehicles need modification so that the joes can fit.
IMO the sets with the props and buildings are prefered. I recently bought the flower shop and its trully amazing! the building can work with joes and there are tons of awesome props! my favorite is storage closet made by transparent plastic. this one will be in my lad dio. some pics the cola, the hot dog the thermo, the mobile phone, the bananas I really like those bricks. What are they? Oh and who is that figure you have multiples of in those pictures? He looks like a resolute figure but isn't. I like using Build o Rama stuff for accessories and camo nets and the buildings 1:18 Scale Military Diorama Miniatures the grass mats they have work great for low or cut grass. 1/32 Scale Toy Soldier Diorama Miniatures |

bricks are from teifoc line. This a german real brick and mortar toy line. the bricks are real and every set contains also cement and a tool. you just put water and mix it with the cement and then you build whatever you want. The construction is pretty solid and sturdy. if you want to destroy your creation, you put it into a ball of water for a couple hours in order the cement to lose its glue power and then its easily disassembled and ready to use the bricks again.
I guess it should be available in the USA too. I ve checked in amazon and they have all the sets the figure is from rise of cobra line (sgt thunderblast). he came with a armored panther (like armadillo with two spring loaded weapons) a chinese seller in ebay sold the figures really cheap so I decided to troop build them. Their looks fit well for some kind random rebel squad. build o rama looks nice. I always wanted to buy something from them. I use plastic plantation from aquarium -terrarium shops. the terrain is plastic grass squares for house bought from shops with home and garden accessories. I got those really cheap and they look really realistic! Quote:

Coincidentally, I saw a few Mighty World sets at TJ Maxx today. They were a couple of the smaller sets ($6.99) with few accessories. It's weird though; I haven't seen any of that stuff there in at least a year. Then I talk about it on the Tank and BAM...it's back at the Maxx.

That stuff looks really nice, now that I know the name, I must try some of it I was trying to think up a way to come up with a similar look without bankrupting myself on train modeling equipment for plant growth like static grass and scale wire model trees. Even in train modeling 1:18th scale display materials are VERY expensive and usually relegated to garden display train sets. Oh, to not derail the thread too much, you can put GI Joes into quite a few G scale trains and they look nice next to them. They actually look nice on certain trains close to the 1:20.5 to 1: 25 scale. |

I have only bought some woodland scenics grass mats (grey for road, green and brown) you can get a very realistic outdoor greenery dio result with these without paying that much (there is a variety of size and dimensions available): Amazon.com: Como 9.1" x 9.1" Green Square Artificial Grass Lawn for Fish Tank: Pet Supplies Amazon.com: Como Green Spring Lawn Plastic Grass Rug Mat for Aquarium Fish Tank Decor: Pet Supplies Amazon.com: 10PCS Plastic Green Aquarium Fish Tank Plant Green: Pet Supplies |

Not sure if anyone is interested but I took some pics of the SUV with Joes. If anyone has any questions or wants pics let me know.

I think it's cool how you can open the hood and remove the engine and radiator It is also cool how the trailer hitch can be removed and replaced with the license plate.
thanks, Jack
