What I would really like is street furniture. Park benches, trashcans, busstops, streetlights, hotdog stands, news stands and all the other smallish things that are in the streets.

I have some of these on order from the Mantic Mars Attacks Kickstarter. Hopefully they will be available from their web site some time after August.





Italeri also do an Urban Accessories set in 1:72.

Huh, I was just wondering when that Mars Attacks stuff would go up for public sale. $25's (plus shipping) perhaps a little steep given that those items are plastic (I think), but I suppose that matches the price of other company's similar products.

That's the KS price, which was done in $ US... they are based in Nottingham, besides having an outlet in the US. Drop them a mail: http://www.manticgames.com/contact.html

The KS is due to ship August-ish, so I imagine the stuff will be in the online store any time from September onwards, although at what price difference I couldn't say.

I just wish Corsec would give us real photos - if I could see the quality, I might actually put some of their stuff to use in my Fallout board.  A strip mall would be handy, but if all you give me is mediocre renders, my money stays home.

They will be produced by Antenocitis Workshop and will be in resin so they should be decent quality. The retail price (when they do become available) may be higher than the Kickstarter price.

I'll post pictures after I finish the design and create the 1st building.

You'll have to discuss import duties with your MP.   ;)

Or more companies could find UK distributors, much like say, Warsenal or Litko....

If the price and product is right, I'll cough up, believe me - but without actual product pictures instead of renders - no sale. It's the equivalent of the old hand-illustrated catalogues in the modern day. I bought next to nothing from GZG from their old paper catalogues and very little from their old webstore, same applies here.

Oh hey I have some of that Dead Man's Hand scenery.  I've only ever bought it at shows or found old stock in my local shop, but thanks for the link to an online distributor. I could do with buying more of those cacti. ^^

Does anyone happen to know where to find some of the old Kiss Kiss Bang Bang terrain blisters? I've had a look at their site, but I couldn't see the blister which included filing cabinets and office desks, nor some of the computer themed ones. Alternative options from other companies would be appreciated too. I wound up just making my own office items based on those, but it'd be nice to have some proper resin ones.
