Looks good.

Is that from the deluxe Indy Pitfall. I like seeing the crossover use from other lines.
Is that you John Wayne, this is me!!

Mark,
That is an outstanding use of the Indy dio piece! Wish I had thought of that, but my mind was stuck in the 40's! :D

Thanks for the great feedback, guys!

-Yes, it is

I orginally got this playset to use with my knelling DAK figures. But as V2 Man and I discussed this, he had the great ideal to use it for a Vietnam boobytrap scene.

Worked out really well. I cleared out the rubber stakes from the bottom of the pit to make room for my VN figure to lay in. The bottom of the playset has a plastic bottom with screws. Unscrewed the plastic panel and pulled out the stakes I didn't need.
The VN figures already have a hole in the back for the backpack they come with to fit into, so I cut off the end of one of the stakes and stuck it into the hole where the backpack would normally go.
The blood is ketchup...mmmm yum!
