New Diorama Product Ideas for Build-A-Rama
Hey Guys,
I would like to get your thoughts on what items you would like to see first. Just keep it as practical as possible.
Thanks!

Re: New Diorama Product Ideas for Build-A-Rama
Mark,
I'd personally like to see REAL sandbags make a comeback... I preferred them. Even if it's a limited run or something.
I also think the stretcher/medic sets would be great to see again. I didn't get a shot at those at the time and wouldn't pass again. A cloth medic bag, if possible, would be rocking.
Beyond that, some simple walls and things would be great... As inexpensive as is possible, but something that multiples could be bought and put together for some kind of random look or expanded scene.

Canteen, cups, glas, plates, forks, spoons, knifes, real cloth sleeping bags, anything in 1/18 that would help to make dioramas of soldiers at rest...

I have one of your Corner Ruins from several years ago and it's a great piece. Something similar to that would be fantastic.

1:18 wheel chocks? Should be cheap and simple. Other ground accessories for aircraft.

Re: New Diorama Product Ideas for Build-A-Rama
I've got a few ideas myself...
US Tank Shells with crates
Different-size ammo cans: .30 cal, larger ammo cans, etc.
Axis-style tank stowage (i.e. German style jerrycans, rucksacks, tarp rolls, etc)
Wooden casks/barrels
Basic aircraft/vehicle maintenance tools set
Additions to modern stowage like MRE boxes, etc.
New-style ruins
Return of the medic sets
Return of the welding/maintenance set

I know you have made GI litters in the past .
Is there anyway you would consider making German litters ?
They would work nicely in a dio and would also come in handy with my Sdkfz 251 ambulance project .

Re: New Diorama Product Ideas for Build-A-Rama
I'd like to see some tents!
1/18 WWII/Korea era tents.
MASH tents, Division Headquarter tents, pup tents, equipment storage tents.
Vacuform them and give them some texture. Should be a cheap production cost? Do them in green and do them in tan for that desert look!

How about German ammunition cans for the MG 34, 42.
most of the ones in 1:18 are US 50 cal. like the ones that came with the FOV figures.
