Hi folks,

For this year's Roll Out Roll Call event Paddy Lennon & Brian Hickey (authors of the superb book: Total Retaliation) set out to create a G.I.Joe diorama in a day using only materials they could find (excluding paint/glue) for free at the event.

Twigs & stones were gathered from the park, with a little imagination cardboard boxes became buildings, polystyrene packaging transformed into concrete & cocktail stirrers "liberated" from the hotel bar changed into street signs:

A you can see, despite my help/interference, it all worked out very well:

A big thanks to Paddy & Brian for letting me play with their toys.

Cheers

Awesome! The buildings, the "effects" (like fire and smoke), the figure placement... it's incredible how much can be managed with basic material.

Rather than start a new thread, I'll post the customs contest entries here too:

Once again the theme for this years custom contest was G.I.Joe-Transformers crossovers:

Great customs, Lord Zarak takes the cake.
