3 3/4 scale accessories

[Phanstar]

Any advice on where to find some nice Joe sized accessories?  I see lots of dioramas with chairs and other items.  I would love to hear suggestions.  I remember long ago I got some nice bunk beds and lockers from a knock off line at Big Lots.  But seems now adays people have all sorts of cool things. Even scale sized arcade machines, etc.  Any advice or suggestions?

Well, I guess if you need more weapons like blasters, guns, and what not, try some of the Fortnite 4" stuff.  There are some Weapon Packs in a Loot Chest, Weapon Packs with 1 Figure, and a sort of Buildable Set of sorts.  The best part of the Loot Chests is that while the all look the same, the packaging does tell you which set you are getting, and what accessories the Chest comes with.  However, if you want to know what colours and/or what they look like, you'll have to do a bit of online looking around to see what the accessories look like in each set.  Here are some links from Big Bad Toy Store and ToyWiz for pics and info:

As for say an Arcade Machine, some companies in the last few years have Released some Old Retro Video Games in a Small looking Arcade Machine, as I've even seen some tiny ones that actually work.  You can more find these around Christmas time, since many people would consider getting them as a Stocking Stuffer, or a small, nice size gift for someone.  Sadly, I have no idea which ones are the best for Scale, unless I either bring a 4" figure with me, or I buy a few, and then try and see how the figure would look scaled with the Packaging of the Arcade Machine.  Maybe try the "World's Smallest" Releases a try, but I can't say for sure if those are too small for 4" figures.   I think the ones from My Arcade are the next step up in size, but could come across as too big(Especially the Thumb Stick).  Here is are some links to check out some of these Small Arcade Machines a try, including a few Youtube Reviews:

Sometimes, some Candy companies do some Small Scale stuff in Tin or Plastic Shape stuff, with candies, mints, and what not, including some Arcade Machines.  Could come across as tiny for 4" figures still, since they seem to be around 3.5" tall.  Here are some links pics and info(2nd shows a ruler that measures the Ms. Pac-man one):

Hope this gives you a good start.  I think for some of the Arcade ones, you might need to do a bit of custom work if you want them to have a different design.

If you need something to represent a Bomb Disposal Robot(Especially for Tripwire), maybe the Hot Wheels Mars Rover from the Basic 1:64 Scale lines(In Canada, these usually cost around $1.25-$1.50 at the time of release, depending on the retailer).

Back around 2012, Hot Wheels for their Basic 1:64 Scale line, release the Mars Rover Curiosity.  It was re-released in the Basic Line in 2014 this time with Brown wheels to represent dirt on the wheels. 

But the reason why I'm bringing it up, is that it is getting re-released again this time in their 2021 Basic 1:64 Scale line, as it will this time be called "Mars Perservance Rover".  From pics I've seen, I can't say for sure if the wheels are black again, or if they will be brown for a "Muddy/Dirt" effect.

Do be aware that it's only been available in White and no other colour, at least at the time of this posting.  It also has a NASA logo on the front somewhere as well.
