Paris Renfroe of PRD Miniatures is bringing new 1:12 shipping container modules to the market. The units are 20"L x 8"D x 8.5"H and feature sliding plexi doors on one side, a concealed barn-style door on the other and a solid plexi floor to ceiling window on the end.
The units offer collectors full flexibility to stack the structure in several multiples and a variety of configurations. You can flip the modules and stack them above or next to each other. Access panels in the floor connect the pods with a metal bar-style ladder so that your mini figs don't have to teleport when you stack multiples. The units will be available in orange, red, green, blue, white, gray and possibly a rusty finish option. Currently, each module is expected to retail $150 - $200.
And, of course, Paris will be making a special series of designer furniture, including partitioned kitchens and baths to complement the structures.

Fabulous news for me (but not my wallet)!
ReplyDeleteI could see these modules being an addiction. You'd buy 2 or 3 at first and then another and then another and then another...
ReplyDeleteAgreed - these look too tempting. Lots of great modern dollhouse news this week though!
ReplyDeleteWonderful - I'd love one of these! Or two, or three...
