I HAVE SHADOWED THE GROUNDPOUDERS SITE EVERY DAY FOR 3 YEARS, SO YES I AM A SPY, BUT THE INFO I HAVE GAINED INSPIRED MY 1/18 PASSION. I HAVE PAID THE PRICE HEAVY, AS 90% HAS BEEN PROCURED FROM USA, BUT I HAVE MADE SOME GREAT FRIENDS IN USA WHO HAVE ASSISTED ME, SO YOU HAVE SEEN NOTHING YET...JUST WAIT 24HOURS. MY GOOD FRIEND MARK FROM BUILD-A-RAMA HAS USED ME AS A SOUNDING BOARD FOR THE LAST 3 YEARS & I HAVE ALL HIS PRODUCTS INCLUDING SOME NOT YET RELEASED. I LIVE IN ADELAIDE, SOUTH AUSTRALIA & THE HOUSE IN ONE OF THE PHOTOS IS SIMPLY A DOLL'S HOUSE I BOUGHT A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO AT TOY WORLD & SIMPLY SPRAYED PAINTED IT. CHEERS.

I RANG TOYWORLD TODAY, IT WAS AN IMPORT ITEM & WAS A CATALOGE ITEM WITH NO BRAND NAME. I BOUGHT IT ON 31/01/05 FOR $129 AUST. THEY SUGGEST RING TOYWORLD IN MELBOURNE WHICH IS HEADQUARTERS & SAY ITS WOODEN, GREEN, FOLDING OUT ON HINGES, WITH A WHITE ROOF.
IT IS REALLY GREAT, RIGHT SCALE FOR 1/18, WITH MANY OPTIONS FOR ANGLES IE CLOSED, HALF OPEN (MAKING A CORNER) OR RIGHT OPEN, MAKING LONGER STREET SCAPE. CHEERS.

Great looking set up. It has to take up a lot of space. What are the dimensions of it?
