House

The Kevin McCallister house from Home Alone.
It is a Funko Pop Town building.
Judging from the size of the door it is just about HO 1/87 scale and would work fine for 15mm.
It is a very typical American home, houses like this are all over the country and could be as much as 100 years old or more, or even brand new.
Funko Pop Town makes 45 buildings, most from movies, or amusement parks.
I have actually been to 5 of them.
They are perfect right out of the box, very durable and no need to assemble or paint them.

Home Alone

Funko Pop Town building.
Based on the movie Home Alone.
The McCallister Home.
With Kevin Funko Pop figure.
I don't care about the figures, but my wife thinks some of them are cute.
So she gets the figures or the Goodwill gets them.
The legal stuff.
Their products are of the highest quality.  The box is designed to be opened, and the plastic shell removed with out any damage to any of it, so they can be re-packaged for collectors.  Very clever.
These figures are cute and all, but just not my thing.
Sadly, the buildings only come with the figures.
Prices vary wildly so I always shop around a lot before I make a purchase.
Sadly a really popular one can disappear quickly and then the scalpers sell them on eBay for astronomical prices.
Maybe that's why he comes with cash in hand?

Police Raid

Police raid on the old Rose and Crown Tavern.
Paddy wagon at the ready.
Scofflaws file out the door.
And into the wagon.
Innocent bystanders stand by innocently.

Inn

Traditional inn, good for Europe, the US, from 1750 to 2024 and beyond.
Another WalMart Christmas building.
Eventually I paint out the snow, match the roof color, or maybe paint it to look like soot, dirt, leaves.
Nice details, the little half dome window at top.
Big hole in the side for lighting, not a fan of that, I usually cover it with a window, or maybe a billboard.
The other side.
