um wow the jealousy is strong right now. this Hp display section sounds amazing and I so wish I could collab!
@greg where did you get the transparent figs? that’s a great touch to the battle scene!someone should make a bleeding unicorn with someone drinking from it within the trees lol can’t forget that forbidden forest scene
September 18, 2019 at 2:44 pm #33554Greg SchubertParticipantwhere did you get the transparent figs
September 18, 2019 at 3:45 pm #33559Jim RolfeParticipantMaybe I can drop it off to Tim.
@tcsbgdady, certainly you can drop it off to me (or I can come pick it up) sometime the week of October 7.OK Tim. Let’s figure out a night that works that week then. Thanks!
September 18, 2019 at 4:32 pm #33560LauraParticipantOkay, so I know I’ve been quiet but I have been keeping an eye on this. Using the information you guys have posted, I have broken the display into these sections
HP Graveyard
Creepy house with Mystery Machine
Forbidden Forest
Fall Farm & Punkin’ patchI am going to make up a rough bluebrick plan and post it tomorrow. Do we want to do another walk-around display like we did last year?
September 18, 2019 at 5:00 pm #33562Greg SchubertParticipantHP Graveyard
Creepy house with Mystery Machinethe graveyard is 32×64
the creepy house is 48 x 64I also have a haunted house (32×32) and a crypt (16×16) with light-up, trans-orange, floating pumpkins that has been there the last two years, to contribute.
Finally, if its NOT walk around, I have a yellow full moon on a black background to use as a backdrop behind the graveyard.
September 19, 2019 at 8:59 am #33577Bob GrierParticipant@laura, the stuff I have I’ve built so far for the Forbidden Forest will pretty much cover one full LUG table. Adding in @greg’s HP graveyard, @tcsbgdady’s Burrow and some additional large spiders, plus a couple of baseplates worth of trees from @timf, then we should plan on 2 full LUG tables for the HP related stuff on the bluebrick. Thanks!
Personally, I like the “walk-around” display.
September 19, 2019 at 10:35 am #33579Skipper MikeParticipantI’m not a fan of the walk around display, but that’s because my Haunted house doesn’t have a finished back to it.
September 19, 2019 at 3:28 pm #33582LauraParticipantHere’s what I’ve got so far, let me know if I’ve missed anything

September 19, 2019 at 3:37 pm #33585JoshKeymasterOr wait, I see there’s no double track section and you’d have to redo the layout…up to you.

Gregory! Remember your oath! What have you done this summer!?!
September 19, 2019 at 3:44 pm #33587JoshKeymasterThis might be the closest you could get, as a purist. https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?M=sh105#T=S&O={“iconly”:0}
September 19, 2019 at 6:23 pm #33591Greg SchubertParticipantGregory! Remember your oath! What have you done this summer!?!
Actually I got them back when Tim and I were collaborating on a Great Hall with the intent of having the floating jack-o-lanterns in the ceiling; I also wanted to have Hogwarts’ resident ghosts present. 🙂

I will work it in.
September 20, 2019 at 8:27 am #33598October 9, 2019 at 5:29 pm #33699TimModeratorI will not be able to be at set up on Friday but I will be able to do Saturday morning. I should be there by around 9:30 am. I have Jim’s The Burrow set and a bunch of spiders for the Forbidden Forest. I will also have a few baseplates of trees (need to get those finished) to contribute as well. Looking forward to seeing the display!
October 9, 2019 at 5:53 pm #33701Skipper MikeParticipantI totally didn’t forget about this.

I’ll be sure to leave space. How big is Jim’s Burrow, 1 baseplate or more??
October 9, 2019 at 8:18 pm #33703Tom FrostParticipantI totally didn’t forget about this
Me neither! I am planning to be there fri night. I have the animated haunted house, the ghost train, the pumpkin trolley, my other trolleys and a couple miscellaneous other things. I will also bring my 9v track just in case.
October 10, 2019 at 2:00 pm #33720TimModeratorHow big is Jim’s Burrow, 1 baseplate or more??
It’s the set, so it will fit on 1 baseplate.
October 10, 2019 at 8:50 pm #33735JoshKeymasterPhil and I are working on getting everything to the museum around 1p or so. I see 12 tables on the bluebrick. anything else we want to make sure goes?
I plan on sending ALL the MILS plates that we got, and whoever is staffing can build a bunch of them, either with the green 4×4 or whites, for the winter displays coming. lots of parts to mils the baseplates and even the tracks.
If we do have the q4 meeting on the 2nd, I think we’ll do a build day out of it too, to make sure we have everything we need. /threadjack

Great idea to have an available LUG task for possible down time!
October 11, 2019 at 9:10 am #33750LauraParticipantSounds good josh. The office staff should be on site to let yinz in.

If you have room, it never hurts to have spare LUG baseplates (not to be MILS’d), 9v track, speed controllers, connecting wires and power supplies. I know Tom and Laura will have a bunch, but it never hurts to have some spares just in case. I’m bringing my Hogwarts Express to run around the HP area, but will need track and the other stuff for that loop.
Greg is dropping his stuff off at my house after school, and then I’m heading down. Should be there around 4:30 or so.

October 11, 2019 at 2:57 pm #33756Phil BrenemanParticipantJosh and I dropped off the LUG stuff. The LUG does not have 9V track so I brought mine. It is in a purple box along with some baseplates. The baseplates are marked with my initials on a sticker, the track is not. Both are available for use as needed. If the track is used, it might be nice to keep it all in one area such as the HP area so that it is easier to distinguish at teardown.
