Look [livejournal.com profile] sharp2799 what lovely things [livejournal.com profile] athousandsmiles has sent me! I love it all!

See more pictures behind the cut



Lots of X-files stuff that I didn't have yet! I can see a crossover with Star Trek figures happening.

I love the porcelain bath tub and sink with golden faucet, I always had wanted one of those!
The kitchen counter and refrigerator look pretty ancient. Everything is very nice. I need to find mirror foil for the mirror.

I assume the yellow thing is a letter box? It has a lid that opens. Or what else could it be?

DSC06344



There were several of those white stool like thingies, they come with a pizza!
[livejournal.com profile] athousandsmiles I want to ask what the little white thing with the cord and plug is?

A closer look at the things that were still inside the package.

I always wanted a cuckoo clock! I can see Jack and Gwen going to Bilis Manger in his clock shop...
Forgot to ask, what is the small thing? A radio?

DSC06379



Love those erasers, I already have the bananas and the grapes, but you can never have enough of that.
The strawberries are a bit big LOL As well as the orange.
I found out that the green leaf belongs to the orange. At first I thought the round thing was a flower pot. But it has like a spike at the bottom so can't stand. What could this be?

And I am puzzled about these things. Do you know what that is, [livejournal.com profile] athousandsmiles?
Does it also belong to the X-file figures? Do I need to put it together somehow? Or get more pieces to build a thing?

Edit: I asked in the toyark forum and they told me the right use: the grates go in front of the alien pods and the other things are to connect them.

So many awesome things! Love the tub and sink with the little faucets, and the clocks look really cool! Teensy playing cards! Teensy wooden utensils!

I already have the playing cards and also the wooden utensils, I shall find a friend that also plays and gift her with those! Would not want to go anything to waste.

Yeah, really so much lovely stuff! Too bad my figures are not dollhouse size. I will have to use these with smaller figures. But I just like to have such things and look at the prettyness. I always was like that, long before I started with action figures. The tub and sink are definitely some of my highlights, as well as the clocks.

Edit: I forgot to ask - do you think the small thing in the picture with the clocks might be a radio?

The yellow thing in the picture with all the chairs could be a storage chest maybe?

As for the metal gratings, if they came with the black pokers they could be some sort of fireplace screen.

That's what I first thought and why I put the pokers into that picture, but it all was in one big box. I think it belongs to the X-files stuff somehow.

Right, storage chest for the yellow works too. Maybe for needlework!

Wow, so many things! I love those small clocks and the old telephone. Dead bodies are... unsettling :)

Wow! Such a pile of things! I look forward to anything you prepare to show us:-)

WOW!!! That's amazing stuff! I agree, I think the yellow is a storage chest, our mailboxes are taller and blue. I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with everything! (athousandsmiles is awesome.)

She is! I already have some ideas. Most of the dollhouse furniture will sadly be too small for my regular action figures, but I should try some smaller figures with these.

Ok wow, it looks great all laid out like that. The yellow thing was listed as a mail box when I stumbled across one on eBay. (I got mine with a dollhouse my husband bought me for Christmas.) I think the little wooden thing is supposed to be another clock, but it does have the look of a radio too.

I thought the oranges were tomatoes, but I could be wrong. And those plastic bits are part of the alien/body containers that came with the x-files stuff. Not sure how it all goes together, but there surely must be images online to look at and find out.

Oh, and yes, the little pizza things. I've collected tons of those; they make great end tables and can be painted easily. I had so many I thought I'd send some along to you.

The little white thing with the cord is a coffee maker. The little clear glass mug goes inside it.

I have no idea what that little pot with the little spike on the bottom is. Hmm, I don't even remember it at all. lol I had so much stuff. It's so cool to see it laid out like this, and I'm glad it all arrived intact.

I guess I can put a clock face onto the little wooden one if it has fallen off. But since there were so many holes I thought that shape means something.

The two small round things on the left bottom (one with the green missing) are tomatoes, the two bigger ones above are strawberries, they have the "dots" and also the right leaves. I guess I could always make a story about a planet with alien fruit that are huge ;)

I never got one of those plastic things when I ordered pizza here but saw them when we were at a convention in the UK and of course snatched them right away. I have used one as a stool in lab pictures, or hospital.

Ah, a coffee maker! One where you only make one cup? I had wondered about the glass mug, I thought it was for measuring when baking.

Because of how much I loved the alien pods, I just went and got the other one that is missing from this collection, relatively cheap on ebay. The one that is in the foreground here: http://www.lulu-berlu.com/upload/image/x-files---mcfarlane-toys---set-of--10-action-figures--loose--p-image-322251-grande.jpg

It has frosted windows and can open and I think I will find great use for it. So you inspired me to finally look into these again! I'll see how I can use them with Star Trek or also Stargate figures.

You know, you can always turn that giant orange into a pumpkin. :p

Also, I'm just thinking that pot with the pointy part is maybe a lamp shade? Was there anything in the box that was lamp-like that it would sit on? I honestly don't even remember that thing, so I'm truly baffled.

Great idea but I already do have pumpkins! You can see them here: https://dieastra.livejournal.com/235031.html

Yeah, I also thought it looks like a lamp shade, but it would be a very small one, even for the small dollhouse furniture it should be much bigger. I think I'll file the pointy top off and do indeed a plant pot. In the FB group people often do plants and leaves, it should not be too difficult.

Cross over with Stargate please?!?!

I was more thinking Star Trek but yeah, Stargate also is a possibility! So many ideas, so little time.
