REVIEW of IHNS TOYS SO-00001 1/6th scale The Cave scene platform - It's quite awesome!

This is the recently released IHNS Toys SO-00001 1/6th scale The Cave scene platform. I don't usually get diorama sets as I prefer to keep all the space I have for collectible figures but found myself drawn to this set from the preview pictures posted (see the toy blog post HERE) and couldn't resist not getting it. This 1/6th scale Cave scene platform is designed for you to shoot photos with your figure in it to add a level of realism to the picture by adding texture and background. It comes with extra accessories so that you can customise the scene and create more options when you are shooting.


I've posted pictures of other diorama sets before. Some of them are quite large (like the Red Diorama "I shot the bus driver" scene posted HERE) while others are smaller (Red Diorama "Throne" scene - pics HERE and Red Diorama "Gateway Light Up Base" scene posted HERE). I like how this IHNS Toys SO-00001 1/6th scale The Cave scene platform can fit nicely inside the IKEA Detolf cabinet.

The box measures 15.5 inches (39.5 cm) W x 15.5 inches D x 17.25 inches (44 cm) H and is quite large as well as heavy. The actual cave scene / diorama measure 11.5 inches (29 cm) D x 13.75 inches (35 cm) W x 15 inches (38 cm) H when assembled.


Some assembly is required


Assembled IHNS Toys SO-00001 1/6th scale The Cave scene platform with 1/6th scale accessories - blue prints, working tools, crate with cover, chains and hook and other miscellaneous items.


What's interesting is the lamp that is included. It comes in three parts: the lamp, battery and holder with wire attached


The lamp is lit by plugging in the battery. It's the same type of battery I came across recently when I got the 1/6th scale light-up lightsaber that belongs to Luke Skywalker (see the toy blog post HERE)

Although it seems like this IHNS Toys SO-00001 1/6th scale The Cave scene platform is designed specifically for a certain Tony Stark when he is kidnapped and imprisoned thus forcing him to build his first Iron Man Mark 1 suit, it is just versatile and may be used for tomb raiders, cave dwellers and the like.
