Here are the plans for a super insane POTA playset. I've been pondering this for a long while. Finally got some time to do some more artwork this weekend.
It starts as a carrying case playset--the big door will be a scene of the crash landed ship (not pictured here). Then you open it up and assemble it and it has scenes from the whole movie. Cornfield on the back, scarecrows, artifact cave on the back (probably have some kind of scaffold for the cave) and of course the Statue of Liberty. I wanted to push her scale bigger so the raised torch is actually a lamintated piece that attached to the back wall of the dida display.
On the opposite side the top display is the outside village scene I did before but the backside of the torch will be some kind of weird building so in the same shape. There will be an arched bridge--again a laminated peice of art attached to a plastic platform that fits on the Dida walls. Still more laminated cut-outs attach to the sides to give the thing a curvey shape, not so straight as the Dida walls. The two side rooms are a jail and then a Zira office. Still not sure what the inside box will have. I like the art museum scene better than the courtroom, probably a Megoish mix of stuff.
Can I pull this off? The artwork is coming along nicely. I haven't prototyped the laminated parts idea, but I think it will work. The stairs need to be prototyped, no idea if I can pull those off. It also depends on how much all that lamination costs...Then there's the size...Approx 40" wide, 20" high (30 with the torch) and about 20" deep. Let me know how interested you would be in this beast...I'm not sure I should even try to make it unless I know there's demand. I'll make smaller, less ambitious sets using this artwork...
