What trailer park could be complete without Pink Flamingos! A flock would be Divine! (see what I did there?)

These are from Armorcast under the Ginfritter line. Painted with craft paints and bsed on washers.

In the game 'It Came From Betond the Still', the Greys can place sensors disguised as pink flamingos, so these serve a game purpose as well as decoration which I why I based them individually vice on existing terrain items or in small flocks.

Enjoy! a few more pictures here: link

Those look great!

I love the HOT chick, and the small flamingo herders too.

I love the HOT chick

She is one of my favorite figures. She fits in with my bikers and my Hillbillies and some other gangs I have.

Hey CPT Jake -- Thanks for the great pictures and also for providing the manufacturer. I had a good laugh and then ordered mine!

Nice! but there are too many stars on that battle flag!

Mako1120 May 2012 6:30 p.m. PST

What flag???

Matsuru Sami Kaze21 May 2012 6:59 a.m. PST

Nice planter too. Almost missed it. White.

That flag is from the universe where Maryland, Kansas, and The Indian Nation joined The South!

Anyone seen any 15 mm scale flamingos, went to party city hoping for some on tooth picks or swizzle sticks, no joy.

Those all look great, nice layout.

A Flock of Flamingos? Wasn't that the group that made the song/video of "I Ran", with the lead singer who looked like the villain in "the Incredibles"?

Lfseeney – try the German HO model railroad companies. Preiser IIRC have them in 1/87 which is close enough.

Lfseeney27 May 2012 4:33 a.m. PST

Thanks

Found a pack of swizzle sticks on Amazon, with free shipping for prime for 24 under 2 usd, better than 6 for 20usd.

Thanks all

Hilarious!

Having listened to a ton of 80s music, my brain automatically filled in "Flamingos" with "Seagulls".

Lfseeney, can you share the product code, please. I, too, have been long on the hunt for 15 mm flamingoes – for Africa, though, not a trailer park. Thanks!

Lfseeney29 May 2012 8:36 a.m. PST

Should have them in a day or so will post pics and info.

Hahaha, this is Fantastic! Great one captain!

Anyone noticed the toilet flower pot?

Tacky yet, mesmerizing.
