I just finished building a display case for my Hawthorne Village Munster House. Here's some pictures, What do you think?

Very nice!

"The only person missing is poor Marilyn!"

Maybe she's on a date...

Djblank · 10-08-2005, 05:54 AM

Thanks everyone! I think I got the photo problem taken care of. They haven't made a Marilyn figure yet so that's why she's missing.

I like that a lot. It looks great.

Great Job! I think it looks wonderful.

Munsters#1 · 10-08-2005, 10:55 AM

Would make a great display for Halloween!

What about Barbie with a Marilyn hair style? Temporarily, of course.

dirtprod · 10-09-2005, 07:57 AM

I'd guess Eddie to be about 1" tall. I think a Barbie, even a miniature one, would likely be way to big. Does Hallmark make any ornaments that could be modified into Marilyn? Maybe I Love Lucy or something like that...

BTW, Djblank, very cool!

Wondering,
Dirt

Great idea. It is a good display and really needs a Marilyn in it.

Djblank · 10-10-2005, 05:23 AM

I should've mentioned the scale, the house is the same size as those halloween scary houses you see in department stores now, Herman is 2 inches and Eddie is about a inch. Here is a picture that shows the scale.

Hawthorne released 4 Munster sets: House and Herman, Inn with Lily, Hotel with Grandpa, drive-in with Koach and Eddie. So you have to spend $200 ($50 each) and buy 3 buildings that were never in the TV series just to get the stuff that was. They should've included a Marilyn with one of the sets.

Munsters#1, You're right this is going to be on display for Halloween. Wait until you see what else I'm building for this Halloween! I'll give you a hint: it's a MUCH larger scale than this!

dirtprod · 10-10-2005, 06:46 AM

Mmmm... A&W Root Beer...

Ahh, I know what you're talking about.

I won't tell what it is, because I don't want to spoil it for others.

Wow. They are small. Did you have to paint everything yourself?
