ACTION FIGURE DIORAMA HOLIDAY PUB CRAWL 2023 - EVERYBODY IS INVITED!

From now until the New Year, show us your dolls or action figures getting in to the holiday spirit, with or without spirits, in your miniature pubs, taverns, bars, restaurants, kitchens, living rooms... or just a single figure raising a glass -- soda, spirits, cocoa, tea, milk, sparkling water, or other beverage of choice -- to toast the holiday season.

Seasonal decor encouraged but optional. We want to make the rounds to everybody's place this season, so don't be a Scrooge! Spice up the warm cider, stoke up the Yule log, and join in the festivities!

The girls are really getting into the Christmas spirit! The pub looks fab! Great idea Dave for a thread! I'm sure the customers at the ammo arms will post a few pics!

Awesome stuff. I’m worried about that light touching her hand — didn’t she get burned. Or possibly slightly melted…

Your photography has always been excellent, Dave, but these characters decorating and interacting adds even more awesomeness to it.

LED lighting has taken a LOT of the "fun" out of the holiday season. Those of us of a certain age probably remember being warned about hot Christmas light bulbs, and getting our fingers burned anyway. Yes, for you youngsters in the audience, Christmas tree bulbs used to get hot enough to burn fingers sufficiently to raise a blister. Christmas in Ye Olden Dayes was no joke, I tell ya what! Many of the LED lights today don't even get warm to the touch.

I'd be delighted to see some Life Day festivities down at the cantina from your crew!

And I've just recently decided that getting a restaurant diorama from Extreme Sets is not high on my priorities list (though it would probably not have arrived by the end of the month anyway).

So here is a syncon hideout with some human furniture

- Top marks for silent walking, but I can see your reflection.
- Well, maybe some day I'll sneak up on you!

I'll probably come up with some more ideas closer to the New Year...

Stylish decanter and stem! Nice looking pad! Looks like a cozy, low-key place to hunker down for the holidays!

Thanks for joining in!

Great shot Visisonor!

love your scenes Davidd!!!
they are just so relaxed and easy and colourful...

lovely idea for such a common thread. I hope to join with a toast next week.


@ Visisonor
cool pic - fits your syncon theme perfectly

Very nice idea and cool photos! Let's see whether I can also contribute some pics...

Excellent early holiday season at the Ammo Arms! Looks like a mellow time, with a few tasteful holiday decorations to set the mood!
The sophisticated clientele are on hand tonight!
(Altho' Cap'n Action's hat manages to make an appearance! )

He may well be passed out behind one of the amps

Cool sets and photos, guys.

That pub looks familiar. But still awesome.

Cheers guys! You know the Arms is always open for business!

You have an impressive talent for truly bringing a space to life with the antics of your figures! Stories within stories happening in the backgrounds and around the edges of every image! Fantastic series of pictures, conveying a sense of festive fun!

Fully agree!
Absolutely awesome crowd! Really feeling their fun - cool drinks and cool guests...
Grogu is of course the best - along with these cute white fellows...

Awesome stuff, as always, Dal. Love the shot of them all slamming back the brewskies.

Aaah, very cool!! Thank you for all the cool pictures! Keep 'em coming!

Thanks so much guys! I do enjoy doing the pub pics, it's always fun trying to think of giving the back ground figs something to do I must admit also, the Christmas party shots give the opportunity to look for smaller Christmas decorations, not that I usually have much luck .

So pleased you all enjoy the drunken antics of the customers! So how do you think will win the drinking comp, Mark? Will Captain Action retain his title, or will Sonja beat him?

I'm hoping to do some more this week, Diana. Hectic week coming u though! Christmas shopping!

Every view and angle looks so organic. Always a pleasure to peek in.

And always fun to get a glimpse of.
Kind of like a nexus between worlds. Or the restaurant at the end of the universe.

That's quite the compliment, thanks you! I did toy with the idea of it being a pub between realities for a while, kinda like 'Hell's Club"
