A few months ago, on another Joe Forum, they had a post about toys that were compatible with Joes, but weren't from the GI Joe Line. It gave me a lot of ideas (and cost me a small fortune on ebay!!) But some of the stuff they mentioned, I bought and these playsets work well with GI Joe. I'm gonna mention ones I know of/ bought, and if anyone else has playsets that work well, chime in! (Let's forgo the obvious like PTE, BBI and Corps! and try to cover non military figures and sets!) Aliens Deluxe Playset (from treehouse kids) I used it for my viper pit review! Star Wars (there are a lot here from the Mos Eisley Bar set to the Endor Bunker and the Ice Planet Hoth set) MASH 3 3/4 inch vehicles and base (I own two bases and they have a ton of dio accessories!) Spawn Alley Set Steel Monsters Line from Tonka (they are post-apocolypitc vehicles ala Mad MAx and go great with Dreaknoks!) Captain Power Trans-field Communicator and Base set Batman Wayne Manor (any version) Ghostbusters Firehouse Terminator 2 bio-flesh regenerator (it's a little big, but makes a Great background piece for MindBenders Lab!) Playmobil (anything!)

Voltron Lions Castle...well...mine was yard sale one, incomplete. Bionic Six, they had a strange base playset...used to use parts of it a lot. The figures are okay, though part diecast. Sherwood Forest (ewok village repaint with new leaves) from Robin Hood.

I've also got some other buildings that have been 'updated' to be various Joe buildings. They are from when I was growing up.........Fisher Price is a FANTASTIC medium for me................. __________________ Non illigitamus carborundum~Vos mos non effrego mihi Coming soon: 'JoeSpecialOps'

If you get the Hulk Movie action figures, one comes in a suspension tank that makes a great background prop for mindbenders lab! I'd like to see that Police Academy playset!

Police Academy Precint playset

My used one was missing the chair, the roof gun and target...maybe the doors, too.

Another classic 3 3/4" line (i never saw Indy in stores back in the day)

Indiana Jones (Raiders of the Lost Ark)
