    FREE Loagn's Run Paper Model/Movie Stand Up

    Just finished this little 6" high Pop Sculpture. Pretty simple, 3 page PDF file.
    Just go to Sherry Lou Toys to download.
    This was based on something I did years ago. It would make a great gift, also looks cool on a shelf full of toys!

    Hey, that's a pretty cool display. I maybe a big fan of ABS I'm also a lover of cardboard items... And if if custom made, it's better.
    Congrats.

        Thanks for the comments!
        I plan on doing more of these, I have a Jason of Star Command one in the works...
        I want ask you guys for any other suggestion?
        I'm looking for 70s/80s shows and/or movies that have a strong following, but had very little merchandise available... You know, being a huge Logan's Run fan sucks when there are very few things to collect, so you have to make your own!
        I think a Land of the Lost would work well, too...

          And what about V? A very popular show but a very few merchandise. A display with a shuttle, a mothership and / or resistants sewer headquarters as background could be cool.

            This is awesome! Can't wait for the Jason of Star Command display.

            As for other shows, how about Filmation's live series- The Ghost Busters with Forrest Tucker, Larry Storch and Bob Burns.

              Thanks for this, very cool!

              I suggest Emergency, Land of the Lost(as you mentioned) 70s Saturday Cartoon montage would be real cool and possibly a 70s breakfast cereal character montage.

                Holy cow, I asked the right people! Fantastic ideas, will probably do all of them!
                I especially like the cartoon montage & breakfast cereal suggestions..
                Thanks!

                    Cool stuff. Love your work. I still need to order your book. The Space Station is a wonderful concept. Consider the neighborhood we're in some 8inch scale stuff would be cool too.

                      Someone above mentioned the show "Emergency", reminded me of a cute story:

                      Years ago I owned a new and vintage toy store (late 90s), a little kid came up to the counter with a vintage Emergency fireman's hat. The little kid was very shy and I could tell he was bummed he didn't have enough money for the fireman's hat.
                      So I told the kid that he should go down the street to Toys R Us where he could find a BRAND NEW fireman's hat, all shiny and much less expensive than this collectable one from the 70s, I tried to explain to the little kid that this was an antique...

                      Then the 6 year old kid looks me right in the eye like he's about to cry and says "I've been looking for this all my life, I watch Emergency every day!"
                      So, naturally I told the boy he could have it for the $5 he had.
                      I had no idea Emergency reruns were running on some cable channel at the time.
                      And the look on that kid's face when he put on that hat was priceless.
                      I thought: "this is what toy collecting is all about!"

                        Great story, sounds like the kid was an old soul, or knows a great show thanks to his parents, either way good on you for giving him hope and the seed to collect, who else will buy all our toys when we all start selling this stuff in the future
