Hey all,
I'm new here and wanted to share my little project and hopefully you guys can help me with some ideas. It's not a real diorama, i'm attempting to build a cobra base but I wasn't sure where else to post this thread. Missing: 1. Need to add foam on the sides and carve them to make it look like a real mountain 2. Add a secret gate for the HISS tanks 3. Add a pvs "pipe" for Cobra's chemical dumping and so that the Joe's can sneak in. 4. Computers/Communication center for the interior... Help? Any ideas where to get that? I tried building them but failed misserably. 5. Chairs and furniture for the command center... help? 6. In general small furniture and things for the interior.... I found a bunch on etsy but they are way to expensive... At the end of the day it's a toy my son plays with so I don't want to buy a $60 throne for Serpentor... I need cheap. Thanks all |

That is really cool! I have wanted to do something similar where there could be a base up top and rooms/storage down below (plan on doing it for my Mattel Eternia playset when it arrives).
I sometimes find reasonably priced furniture on Amazon but it is 1:12 scale. I have never tried looking for 1:18 scale accessories. I, too, would love to find small computers or tech consoles for my figures. I have a 3D printer but I have trouble finding files for it.

This is a fun idea, and the perfect use of that Star Attack Battle Station.
Most of this Batman Batcave set could be easily incorporated into your project, and it's currently on sale for only $15: https://a.co/d/7p7dePJ I haven't purchased anything from this eBay seller yet, so I can't attest to the quality of the items, but they offer reasonably priced Cobra thrones and other 3D-printed accessories that look pretty cool: https://www.ebay.com/usr/candb_superprintz Please keep us posted on how your project develops!
