It’s still early September, but don’t bother pointing it out to this couple crafted by Miro78. He’s wearing lederhosen and holding a pint, she’s wearing a dirndl and holding a pretzel, and they’re no doubt listening to some fabulous oom pah pah music as they celebrate Oktoberfest. Coincidentally, I made bavarian style pretzels just last night (no really, I posted a pic on Facebook).
This is a fun concept. It's a vignette built of smaller hinged vignettes, that can be reconfigured in many ways for display or play. This one is obviously Oktoberfest inspired, with some beer affectionados enjoying some brew, but I can see this being infinitely reconfigurable by adding additional modules, and of course theming. I mean, how cool would it be so see a Star Wars cantina, or a wild west saloon, or a space station. The possibilities are endless.
As I stated a couple posts back, October is here, and not only does that mean all those things I stated in that post, it also means beer and pretzels. Yes, it's Oktoberfest time, that hailing of the coming of fall and, way back when, the marriage of Crown Price Ludwig. This excellent little vignette by Miro78 captures everything that everyone loves about the event in one charming 10x10 vignette. I love the little details like the mounted deer hear and the cuckoo clock.
