Thank you ReverendSooky. I didn't mean to get so many rabbits but... well, they're rabbits. And maybe subconsciously I have been inspired by the most kickass "rabbit" of all (you know what I mean, if you've seen Infinity War). The good weather has been the inspiration for my increased store visits and picking up more and more of these items that can be used for sixth-scale scenes.

Then I'm happy I didn't make a real spoiler. Try to avoid these and see the movie as soon as you can.

The Spring Shop chairs from Hobby Lobby (this kind, not the "rustic" ones that match the lifeguard chair -- both of which were shown and discussed in earlier posts within this thread -- not sure who made them) are already slightly oversized, but seem to work ok. Thanks for the warning about the Michaels' chairs. Where did you pick up those straws from Lynkhart's post in the states?
ReverendSpooky wrote:True story too! Darwin claimed they were incredibly hard to keep his balance on. And who says science isn't fun!?
And I swear, I think the real chairs have that oversized look. Looking at your pics again, they look dead on to me.
I found the straws on Amazon:

@ Gubernator Fan: That sixth-scale looking motorcycle from Hobby Lobby that you talking about did it look like a custom chopper with red
paint?
Hi BAD WOLF. No, the motorcycles I saw (some of them about sixth scale, some smaller ones too) were a copperish/bronzish color and had no actual headlight (other than the cup for one). More like the one in the first two photos of the OSW thread. I think this is the online listing:

The passports and coins are from the Explorer line of jewelry in the beads and jewelry section. If you can't find them in your store, here are the online listings:

Hope this helps!
