Toy Playsets good for any line.

Ok, so I just saw this on Facebook and I need to post about it somewhere because I kinda want it for my Joes and Transformers to fight around.

I don't have the room but I feel like it could make a really fun display.

These are too rich for my blood, but I love the modularity, and they would work for lots of toylines.

Not at all what you're looking for, but part of why I wanted to get G1 Fortress Maximus was for the role a similar base/ship plays in my own fiction. XP

This is going super-oldschool, but I did write a piece years ago about an item from the Dungeons & Dragons toy line I wanted back in the day. Its purpose?

To act as Bowser's lair for my Mario toys.

Plus, the odd personal connection back to the Super Mario Bros. 3 Happy Meal.

Of course, these days, there are actual Mario playsets to pull off the bit much better than this might have done, imagination be damned.

Oh, wow. I had a beaten-up Fortress of Fangs as a kid that I think I picked up from a yard sale or something for a couple bucks. I always thought it was a He-Man playset.

The TimMee toy prices are mind-blowing.

The TimMee toy prices are mind-blowing.

Yeah, especially when a lot of the molds they use were the cheap off-brand toys that were sold as alternates to GI Joe vehicles. That said, if they ever re-engineered the Processed Plastics Huey Cobra-like helicopter for 3-3/4 figures, I'd probably bite the bullet and buy at least one. Lots of fond memories of that chopper...

1982 GAY TOYS LAZER FORCE ROVER & STARFIGHTER. COMPLETE. AMBER CANOPIES - RARE | #403873479

You are bidding on GAY TOYS LAZER FORCE ROVER & STARFIGHTER. In my research, one selller said these were extremely rare. They were meant to complete with the STAR WARS craze of the early eighties. The

They also made these - https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/vintage-toy-action-figure-lazer-force-4673247070 - and I'm pretty sure I managed to find the same vehicle in two different pics.

Anyway - the TimMee toys seem to be that level of quality, so it's crazy that they're charging so much.

I did find this, though - and it could work for a playset or maybe for some toy photography: http://www.lanard.com/img/gallery/featured/corpsuniverse/LG/Corps_Featured_19_LG.jpg
