This is a building made out of interlocking bricks, Lego type plastic bricks, but not actual Lego. It is scaled for 1/72nd scale figures. Likely the Red Box Police and Robbers will likely spend some time here.

The restaurant is based on one from a TV show. The show used a real restaurant and then after the first episode they used a set based on, but not identical to the real restaurant. Later the same set was used on Stargate SG-1 TV show also.

The model is not finished and won't likely be for a couple of months as I need some additional materials to complete it.

The lego type bricks that I am using to make three restaurants I am also using to make one of them the end store of a large strip mall. Outdoor strip malls have been common in the USA since before the First World War.
My plan is to swap out different stores as I use it for different eras. So the old mall might have a blacksmith shop and the newest version might have a computer store instead.

There are never enough wagons in miniature armies. Part of that is because there are never enough horse, or wheels. But wagon bodies are also important. So here is a solution to a few of those problems.

Hello all, two posts today, I could not post on the forum for some reason yesterday.

One is about making more wagons and a photo of my hobby storage area, and the other is about buildings used in horror movies or TV shows.

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang was based on a book written by Ian Fleming, the same guy who wrote the James Bond novels! It was a similar car to the ones the early Bond drove, apart from the flying and stuff.

This is an excellent die cast car, in 1/64th scale, I think, same as most Hot Wheels cars. I have the family figures selected but not yet converted nor painted.

But this is a start. The movie is pretty good, and the Vulgarian Armed Forces are interesting.

Corgi Chitty Chitty Bang Bang car model.

It has wings that retract and front and rear wings that are removable.

This is a very nice model.
