I found a MiiWorld (I think that's what they're called) set today that I hadn't seen! It's a pizza parlor. Totally picked it up. Been wanting a pizzeria dio since like ever.

Nice! We've been talking about it a little bit in one of the Figuarts thread.

I haven't seen it yet, myself. Where'd you find it?

Just got my new LA kits in today, so I'll put them together tonight.

I found it at a TRU in the Hi-Desert area of Cali. I've seen a Karaoke bar set but it was too American looking. I may pick it up later down the road and redo the background to look like a traditional Japanese Karaoke bar.

Man, yall are gonna have me ordering MiWorld sets.

How's this for awesome? This company makes 1/12 scale wooden pallets and cinder blocks out of actual concrete! I ordered a small pack and some rubble ones to see what they're like in person.

Sweet! Adding that to my wishlist.

Re-Ment's 80s nostalgia series is some next level nostalgia baiting.

Got the knock off flame effects in purple. They are perfect, gotta get the black ones now.

Hey guys I was wondering do any of you know where to find a 1/12 scale violin? I recently acquired Emperor Kiva and Dark Kiva and it would be perfect with them...provided one exists that is.

There are a bunch of them on eBay currently. Dollhouse scale is default 1:12.

I bought some plastic tatami but wasn't happy with how they looks. Cut up a straw mat and tried to make my own using the poetic ones as the inner core.

Ahh thanks! I found another site but they were really expensive so checking on ebay was a godsend. I just hope that it doesn't look bad in person and the quality holds up since I got it for like £2.

If I wanted to get a motorcycle for a Figma or Figuart, 1:12 is the scale I would want correct?

Yes, you can buy them from Wal Mart for like 20 bucks.

Hopefully it will be awesome! Post lots of pics. :D

Finally built all three of my 1/12 Gashapon machine kits. They really don't include enough of the two toned capsules for a single machine.

Scored some tech decks from a local thrift show. perfect size for sh figuarts scale skatebords.
Took some fun phots of some stuff we had around from an old dollhouse collection.

Uh-oh. I just figured out that I can relatively easily obtain some Re-Ment stuff. I ordered a table-and-chairs set, as well as a donut-themed blind box. (I can only pray it includes plain sugar.)

I blame Kamen Rider Beast, who comes with a bottle of mayonnaise and some appropriate hands. Clearly, he needs a donut to terrorize. (Sadly, Wizard can't join him at the table, since he can't sit.)

I'll share some pictures if it turns out not-disastrous.

Well, I've experimented with some potential accessory purchases with mixed success. I picked up the Re-Ment Cafe Table and Chairs set, two of the Re-Ment Donuts to Go! blind boxes, and a full set of the Orcara Fruit and Drinks.

I'd had high hopes for the Re-Ment accessories (Wizard donut diorama PLEASE!), but they're not quite Figuarts-scale: everything is a little too large. In the image below, the Re-Ment items are the table, chairs, Puchi Donuts bag, and everything on the orange tray. You can see that the chair is a little too big for Zangetsu. His feet don't touch the ground, and the seat it a little too deep; I had to pose Takatora in a slouch. (Duke and Marika's designs complicate sitting, so I didn't attempt it.)

So the donuts weren't quite a success. The beverages from those boxes are cool, but look cartoonishly large compared to the New Generation Riders. From the images I've seen, one of the ten different donut blind boxes contains mini-donuts that might be the right scale, but I wasn't that lucky. (One of the two boxes I picked up was the only one in the set to contain no donuts.)

The Orcara miniatures (everything you see on the table that's not on the tray) are a much more appropriate fit to Figuarts size. Not perfect, but close enough that I don't really mind. I bought the entire set (about $25 on Amazon with shipping!) and I'm really very pleased. I only put a few of the items from two of the boxes into that photo. The boxes in that set include melon, peach, banana, apple, mango, pineapple, grape, strawberry, pears, and a few I don't recognize. These tend to contain both the full-sized fruit and then one or more sliced versions. The beverages - aside from a GIANT bottle of some kind of peach juice - are much closer to Figuarts size, and no less nifty or detailed than the Re-Ment beverages.

The downside for Gaim enthusiasts? The set doesn't contain orange, lemon, or cherry! Gaim, Sigurd, and Duke will be so disappointed.

Nevertheless, I'm going to need to set up a Gaim display with the Orcara miniatures. I'll take more photos if anyone's interested. (Also, forgive the low quality of this shot. This is my first time at something like this.)

Re-ment doesn't have an official scale but it's definitely not 1/12. It's probably more in scale for japanese dolls. Furniture wise, hasegawa makes 1/12 model kits and max factory has some figma ones. There are a few other companies as well.

Oh, hey, you did those great Re-Ment reviews! Thank you/I blame you! ;) There did seem to be a few of the 80's Home items that seemed roughly appropriate for Figuarts Kuuga (although he's also slightly larger than most Figuarts I own), like the TV and remote control. I confess that I really didn't pay attention to the food scale in those photos, although I should've.

I did look over Hasegawa based on something you'd posted a while ago, although I didn't find any standalone furniture in my initial search. I'll revisit at some point. As it is, I may look more closely at Orcara, since I'm wondering if they generally run a little smaller. I'll let you know if it turns out Baron can actually hold the little half-peeled banana from this set.

(Also, I love so many of your photos!)

Aww, yeah.

http://www.tokunation.com/picture.ph...&pictureid=584
Banana noms! C'mon!

Thanks, that really means a lot. I think the thing with the 80s furniture is they were limited to what would fit int he blind boxes which made it a bit more in line with smaller figures. I've found the scale works a little better for Nendoroids because of their cartoonish proportions but the rement stuff seems to work best with licca/blythe/pulips and other dolls in that scale. Basically that stuff thats '1/6' but not really quite 1/6 as they would look too small in something like a Hot Toys. There also seems to be two scales with re-ments. The 8 packs are usually the smaller ones but ones that come in 6 packs around the 1600yen mark are significantly larger and might even be too big for 1/6. I got the gochisou curry collection and each set is gigantic.

I've been meaning to get some of the orcara sets but the ones I want are all sold out on amiami. I like re-ment because they offer licensed sets which I find really neat. I'm a big fan of 3gatsu no lion so I grabbed both of those, and have the grandma and grandpa set along with the kotatsu coming next month.

So at Target there are these "L♡ri" dolls and one of the items in the series is this nifty Figuart-scaled loft.

Also a ballet studio if you want to go all GigaBeetle and have Ouja doing a pirouette. :lol

These what?
Edit:nvm, looks like you fixed it.

Those look decent.

These nuts. :lol :p

Fixed, I forgot what the line was and I'm on mobile, meaning if I went to go check the brand name back in my photo app, I'd run the risk of the entire post resetting and I don't want to retype stuff. :lol

Wait wait wait... they have a piano?

I've been eyeing the loft to love set for a few weeks now. 50 dollars is actually really cheap for a doll house of that size, but on the other hand its still 50 dollars. I plan on picking one up eventually.

A ballet studio yes. I had the wonderful idea of having Abyss and Raia do various Ballet moves while Magnet Fourze plays the piano.

... I was just going to drop it on people.

...

Goddamnit, Gosei :lol
Yeah, I know what you mean. That gets really annoying.

That totally works too.

I got the rement Kotatsu which ended up being way too big, definitely scaled for stuff like pulips and licca. Ended up just making my own which is about the same surface area but much shorter.

Poor Mako, she's so short that she still has to sit at the kids table. :lolol

I've noticed the larger petit sample 8 packs are generally the closest to 1/12 scale, though probably still closer to 1/10-12 or some kind of exaggerated doll scale while the furniture and 6 packs are 1/12 for sure.

Those look nice.

I didn't see anything in the rules in regards to gravedigging (if I missed it, my apologies), but I thought I'd tried to breathe some life back into this rather than start a new one.

Accessories!

At AmiAmi:

(I checked HLJ to give anyone interested some options but didn't see these there.)

I love that surf green one (or seafoam, depending on your point-of-view) as I used to have a guitar like that a number of years ago. Kamen Riders, the band, coming soon! :lol

Ooooh these are tempting. I really want a red acoustic for Kikaider but one of these would be pretty good in the meantime.
