Plasticville Blues
by Troy Boni

The Roche MotelI saw in CoZoChron that due to people snapping up Plasticville on ebay you were building structures from scratch

I wanted to pass on a bunch of links I've been assembling for knocking out some buildings to use in zombie games.

You may have seen this stuff before, but it's a nice group of resources that hopefully you will find useful.

Most of the sources are in the U.S., but shipping might not be too bad for lighter items or perhaps U.K. vendors could order if you find something you like.

Cool detailed bits (phones, gas pumps, ect) mostly 1940s U.S.

Plastructhttp://www.plastruct.com/
