Death Star

This playset was made using foamboard, the detention cell playset, bridge playset, and a cardboard tube. This playset is approx 30" wide, 24" tall, and 8" deep. It contains 2 hallways, the targeting room, detention block, detention cell, trash compactor, and bridge with a lift tube running through the middle of it. All the pieces were cut out and glued together. Once glued I painted it with primer grey paint. I then used backgrounds found in the Stickers & Backgrounds section at Erik's site.

It really isn't a good design to actually be a "playset," but it worked okay to take diorama pics. For those wondering, the detention door does still work and if you put a figure in the grate, he will fall into the trash compactor. The computer console was made by cutting a plastic container into pieces and gluing them togther. I then painted it black and added decals. I removed the gun from the detention cell and glued it to the top of the lift tube to work as a turbo laser. I filled in the hole in the detention cell with foamboard and glued two pieces of plastic tubing to wall. Sometime in the future I plan on scrapping this playset and making a bigger one, with more "play value".
