Take Me Down to Ultraman City

Was I alone in totally not realizing that Bandai has been releasing little buildings that are in-scale with their cheapie Ultraman vinyls? It's called the "Ultra City Series":

I had no idea, but these are fantastic. I was actually thinking about why noone was doing anything like this not too long ago. Apparently they were.

I make 3D printed mecha action figures.

I own Bandai HQ..

I personally like this inflatable one the HLJ has listed.

The velcro to stick the buildings to the base is a nice touch....

Man, that inflatable one's pretty badass! See, the concept of existing toy-scale buildings is great, but I prefer something with a *base* for all the buildings to fit onto. Doesn't have to be a "proper" diorama, but while a bunch of loose buildings on my desk or floor next to a kaiju toy is very cool, a whole landscape with streets, rivers, and whatnot is fucking dope!

Admit it reverend, you thought about buying the inflatable one....

Ha - the prop workshop diorama at the end of the last one is great!

What's with the past tense!? I still have the tab open in my browser. ;)

I only hesitate because of the size...if there were more room for standard-size figures (not the midsize Bandai ones), I'd be ALL over it.

Lemme get a few beers in me...then I'll decide. :P

I bought this for my daughter. It's cool, but a little small.

Best, Ken-A

Switch to Scotch...that'll get the job done...

This makes me want to make my own out of construction paper.
