Are there any carnival or amusement park rides available as paper models?

I found some SD deformed cars, and airplanes that might work good for some kiddie rides. Also a couple of cartoon type vintage rockets and flying saucers. I got a download of a Disney type skylift and a train engine and cars from Big Thunder Mountain. With me anything is a good starting point for experimenting, redesigning, and repainting. The Joker's Carnival will be an ongoing project. Nice thing is repaints can be made for a more generic carnival or amusement park.

I seen something on facebook under yahoo finance Lee Clifton, something that you might find amusing to look at. I tracked it down to the guys website. He has pictures and video. I seen it and thought of you. Hope you like it.

Thanks for the link Blake7! This guy is a marvelous photographer and has a great sense of humor. I wish I could afford just one of those action figures. By the detail you can tell that most of them are Hot Toys 12 inch figures. They usually run a couple of hundred dollars each. From some of his photography I wonder if he isn't the product photographer for their line of toys.

I know exactly what you mean. I came across some realistic figures for the original Ghost Busters, and Back to the Future, then I seen the prices. Blew me away.

Way beyond my means, I have a mortgage, and 4 cars ( 2 more being restored) and 1 bike, and a motorhome to consider, and my wife is bugging me to get rid of my 1968 Shasta 16 foot trailer my neighbor gave me. I want to restore it! There was a show on T.V. and they charged a couple $20,000 to restore one of these and mine is in better shape! :)

This is identical to the one my neighbor gave me. I helped him recondition it, it saved their marriage when they started going away and camping in it. He died a year ago. I want to restore it and give it to my son so he and his buddies can go camping in style. The winglets make it go faster!! (I know, this isn't really camping!). No toy figures for me, they are neat as heck though. ;)

Hello,

Volker Preikschat from streetpaper.de has some models for amusement parks on his website: A Ferris wheel and a so called "Spacerak".

Some years ago he also had an ADAC (German car club) helicopter flight simulator truck (if this also counts for You to this category),
but I can´t find it on his website at the moment. It was: http://www.racepaper.de/street/polizei/adac.htm

Kind regards

Thanks guys! Nice set of models. Got them all downloaded. I've found quite a few SD deformed models of cars, airplanes, space ships, and flying saucers to use for kiddie rides.
