Operation: Snake-Rising (Collecticon 2010)

Wednesday, October 13, 2010


VENUE:

Organized by Hobbiworx and PinoyToyKolektors (PTK), DMD (Dynamic Modular Diorama) was displayed last weekend October 2-3, 2010 at the Robinson’s Place Manila Mall (Philippines) in celebration of Collecticon 2010.




BUILD

This diorama changes display every three to four hours. It is the first of its kind in the Philippines for action figures (regardless of scale). We dubbed it as a “dynamic modular diorama” or DMD. In this case, it is called Dynamic Modular DOJO-rama.






Brought to you by the same team that came up with O: Shock and Awe, O: Killzone, O: Forced Entry, O: Gothic Serpent, O: Sidewinder Verde, O: Grayia Seize-r, and O: Ivory Blanket…the Philippines only local 3 3/4 (1:18) Joe online community..TS118

Inspired by oriental movies and ninja-themed displays, TS118 formed a group of volunteers, a collaboration done by 8-10 members (builders, pledgers/financiers, consultants, etc.)

Took 3 weekends of preparation and actual dio-work to complete (figures/structures/vehicles). Mostly done on Saturdays only. Dojo was done first in virtual 3D before being implemented for physical design.





FEATURES:


Dojo panels allowed the team to display it as U-shaped to show dojo interior, or in a straight line to simulate the dojo facade.
GI Joe customs in 25A body (Slice, Dice, Jinx DDP, unmasked SS & SE) plus hidden mickeys (Deadpool Sensei, Kakashi Sensei, Deathstroke, Rha’s Al Ghul, and a tribute to the legend…BRUCE LEE).
