So this playset was made after I quickly through together a similar looking backdrop piece for my CRASHER customs. I liked the backdrop so much it inspired me to build this one. I had a few Terror Drome panels, SLAMS, General and other fodder I thought might make a cool outpost or base. I wanted to make something small yet playable and could also fit on a shelf unlike most of the Joe playsets. If you notice this time I DID NOT weather this paint job. I kept this one clean for now. I wanted to present it as a playset that you might see in the Joe line. It will more than likely get a war torn paint job later. LOL. Thanks for checking it out. Enjoy

That's pretty sweet! I like how it's compact, just perfect for a shelf duo. Can't wait to see it weathered up.

Love it. Great use of the top pad of the General, I always loved the play sets as a kid they really add to the line. What's the base colour you used?

Real nice stuff. I am dying to know, what do you use to make the walls with. Are those parts to another playset or something.
