i voted on do it yourself cause i'm a diy kind of guy. im building an alley scene buying random items from the dollar store and printing things out from the net and its coming out pretty well. it's really fun and rewarding when you get things to come out the way you want them. so far i've accumulated pallets, a soda machine, random posters, and pipes.

if you are a creative person then theres no need to buy dioramas when you can make them yourself. the good thing about making your own is that nobody else has what you got and your dios are a one a kind. pet stores offer lots of good stuff but is ussually pricey. why pay 24.99 for a fake tree at a pet store when you can go cut some branches off a tree and apply some moss for the same effect. alot of the stuff ive seen in pet stores would work great but at the same if you put some time and thought into you can make the stuff yourself for a fraction of the price. ive only bought one thing for a dio from a pet store so far and that was a skull (the size of my hand) on clearance for $8.
GET CREATIVE WITH YOUR DIOS AND THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX, and stay away from the card board

I'm a little old school....I still find a certain sort of charm about old school carboard dio's.....GI Joe Cobra Command HQ, Star Wars Land of the Jawas and Battle of Hoth sets....those were (and still are IMO) really fn cool. To take it a bit further I LOVE the old vinyl sets that MEGO put out, PLanet of the Apes, Batcave, and especially the Star Trek Bridge....Awesome stuff. The newer 3-D star wars stuff that came out wasn't quite the same...no where close really.

I like choice #4 the best.. the plastic ones might tempt me but I'm far more likely to purchase something with a price point below $20

I want something with some 3D to it. Like a snow scene with some boulders. Motor pool with crates.
That kind of thing.
