ALright, I am currently assembling the pieces for the Mr. T museum. There is an item I need that seems hard to acquire outside of the states.

Corgi made a die cast A-Team van with a Die Cast Mr T Miniature. The miniature is alittl ebig but would be a fine statue. The Van is !:43 scale, which in my experience is perfetc for GMOC1 scale.

If any of you find it at your local hobby shop do please let me know, as i understand it a gew of you are in the UK.

here ya go mate

I found two online for sale. The cheapest being 14 pounds. If you could find anything cheaper I would appreciate it.

Thanks for looking though. 17 pounds (I am asuming squid = quid = pound) is a bit more than I can pay for a die cast car. I was more looking for maybe a second hand one or one cheaper than the 14 one that I had located.

Worse comes to worse I guess I'll have to make one myself. I'm sure I can find a similar van for much less and add the rear spoiler and some paint.

You're all being really helpful, and I do appreciate it. I doubt any of you will be stateside soon, but in the case that any of you are you're welcome to stay a bit at my place and play on the table when it's done. :)
 
very good one Shadow queen.

BTW I have after moving..just unpacked all my old JD/2000AD monthly magazines...just been re-reading them all

theres a few things

You might be able to incorperate some characters in your block that can be found in most blocks.

A stoogie pusher
A sugar Pusher
A Ump candy pusher
Taps (muggers) working over a vic...famous story where someone was tapped in front of 100's of passerby's (later the same people walked passed with as much fear while dredd works over the mugger)
An unemployment office and an Unimployment school.

In one of my early comics there is a story with an indoor park with real trees and ponds, and through to another area is a recreating of a beach with surf.

Also If its a Mr T block, you will definatly need a few bling shops with some O/G (Over-Gold) hanging in the windows.

A vid slug store does do films but it is also the most common form of daily newspapers and magazines. its more like a newspaper shop you would find just outside, city indoor centres or major railway stations in london.

Dont forget an aeroball stadium, most blocks have em.

and its quite possible you would have some form of Palais De Boing, although as mentioned about other places i think the palais is a one off. Maybe a Boing Pinball Centre.

All blocks have their own Hospital


:D
 
reference an earlier mention of cursed earth travels

I have found an old advert in a script, dredd is standing next to a travel bureau
its a story about how most citizens still want to work
