Nice set! I´m sure, the factory tools sets will find their buyers. (possibly including me) They look good and are useable for different situations. But I also think, the other sets also will find their buyers. The plants will be needed at DAK and its counter-parts -scenes and also the cooking-ware is a welcomed set and can be used for different scenaries / times. Soeren

tool set and shop look great!

I have to agree with the other comments regarding price. Yes, they look good but the tool set (and the even more sparce "Cooking Ware" set) doesn't offer enough bang for the buck. I also question the inclusion of a modern desk lamp in what appears to be a WW2 era workshop. But perhaps the lamp is meant for a modern diorama.

Is it an added bonus novelty of a miniature KV 2 paper model?[/quote] A 1/35 scale paper model of a 1/35 scale model tank? Interesting... That combined with the lamp do suggest a kind of timelessness to the set suggesting that the pieces could be used anywhere from the 30's to modern dioramas.

I got both the Cactus and factory tool sets from Diopark via Hobbyeasy and both are very nice.

That workshop is "out of time". You will find this setup in more than a few privat hobbist garages even today from the looks of it. The only addition may be an electric drill with stand.

do we know if Dio Park is still in business?

cant see a website but their stuff is still readily available. It's just very expensive for what you get and the likes of MiniArt are producing similar for much less cost now (Au$80 for a set of farm tools??)

They are indeed. Check eBay, and the overseas shops. What are you looking for? I have a pretty fair amount of their stuff and some multiples in the stash. Since you're fairly if I have it I might be able to help you out for cheap on postage.
