Basically the tabs go under the other tabs. It’s rough as you fold them over, but each tab will go under the folds, once you fold it all it should be fairly stable, hard to do as your doing it though. You can check out extreme sets tutorial on one of the older buildings if that helps.
No issues with that Over time the walls have curled slightly, but not by much Some of the earlier buildings had different rooftop designs and I just put empty boxes inside the building to support the roof Couple of the other sets of floor pieces that have curled slightly
I really appreciate these videos. I just bought the Sewer 2.0 which is my first extreme set, and these videos are helping me make informed decisions on which buildings are going to fit best in my displays. Thank you! Your city looks amazing too. You should grab a few of those giant gray $20 throw rugs from Walmart. They’d really set it off as the ground underneath.
@@dHuntersReviews If you have a Walmart nearby, go check out the area that has the doormats and throw rugs. I recently bought a black one for my figure room for $20 and I remember seeing gray ones too (to replicate concrete in your case). I just measured mine and it’s 54”x72”. They come rolled up, usually in the main aisles but sometimes where the other rugs are.
Decent look ! (worth all your work buildin it).I could see me usin it for my BTAS stuff, or TMNT.Oddly enuf ,as an OLD collector ,the late 60,s -early 70,s had lots of cardboard/fiberboard buildings for toys & plastic Marx figs.Coll to see them around again .Good stuff : D thanks
Awesome thanks! Off the top of my head, who is the nurse looking lady with the clipboard in this video? I see the police are Neca with one having a Star Trek head.
You make some really great diorama sets. I would love to see a wayne manor farm the dark knight rises "Wollaton hall" or the one from Batman the animated series. Will take a lot of space though
I wonder if Extreme would ever do the original Transformers base Anyone remember that one? Awesome video!! I will be picking up some of these soon Great tips 👌
@@dHuntersReviews i mean that i don't now which diorama buy, extreme set, neca or 12 world, but when i saw your reviews i decide the extreme set, and i am waiting my 3 building from extreme set, excelent collection.
Awesome review dHunter. Love your Gotham City set-up. I only have the first two Extreme Sets buildings myself. I may be getting the building 3.0 for Christmas though. Fingers crossed. I personally love the Extreme Sets dioramas. I currently have 18 of them. They come in real handy for making my action figure comic books. I'm thinking of getting that Police Station too, but I'm not sure how much use I'd get out of that one. I noticed you got one of those in your shipment. Are you going to review it? Also, I may drop an e-mail to Extreme Sets and suggest they make an Office pop-up. That would be great for scenes of Bruce Wayne's office, or crime bosses, or newspaper offices, etc. I would get a ton of use out something like that. What do you think, are there any sets you'd like to see them do?
I used to have all the early ones and then they got ruined because a pipe burst. You can’t replace the old ones with the originals so I gave up for a while. Getting my collection back up now. I’m not sure what I’d ask for...do wish the interior sets had brick walls or SOMETHING on the outside so it wasn’t blank cardboard Same with buildings having SOMETHING on the interior besides blank cardboard. I wouldn’t mind seeing the inside of an arcade, someone else here suggested a pawn shop or laundry mat. Grocery store could possibly be cool.
@@dHuntersReviews Oh man that sucks about the burst pipe. The worst thing about these is that they are just cardboard. Makes keeping them in perfect condition a bit of a challenge. Especially if you use them a lot. I'd love one those Neca Street Scenes like you have, but they go for over $100 now. I didn't even know about them until I saw them in one of your review videos. So I kind of missed that boat. I do have a Ghost Busters building that I picked up on eBay a couple of years ago for like $40. Another set I've always wanted is the Buffy The Vampier Slayer Library diorama, but that one is really pricey. I have a few facade dioramas that I've made myself, but they are mostly just print-outs pasted onto cardboard.
I have all of those you mentioned. A lot my Extreme Sets stay in their boxes, but the buildings stay out. Most of the floor pieces are warped, not flat. Over time, the buildings are starting to curl. The floor in the Cabin isn't flat anymore. Frustrating.
@@dHuntersReviews Yeah, the floor pieces are almost always warped. Very hard to get them to lay flat. Makes it tough to get the figures to stand sometimes. I also keep my sets in their boxes and only get them out when I need them for photos. I have the Building 1 and 2 set up though. The buildings are too hard to break down once they are put together. I used tape on the roofs to hold them together nice and sturdy, so I'd have to ruin them to take them apart.
does anybody else do dio reviews? I don t remember any... ; it s good to be the King! ha, ha because I m experienced in lego city, I can see a common flaw, each building should have a mat - floor that includes the sidewalks... it flashes bright to me, as I m 'in the business' of urban miniatures it would look sooo much better with a mat with sidewalks bro since you have money, an insulation foam sheet is what I d go for 1' thick is sidewalk s height or about, the trap.... you need to decide which buildings will be corners.... because sidewalks will be different, as they are then shaped as "L" as opposed to '----'...... one strip only maaan, you have police, ambulance, medics? ouh, you have to use those in stories or something... I d looove to have that! if the bar thing goes well, maybe an outside would complement - rock! then, a back alley where the REAL dirty stuff happens... and the police and ambulance... oh come on! it s a movie set bro! Mel Brooks, ; it s good to be the King! so now you know... good show bro
This is completely awesome I have to scribe button to have one question why were all the bad guys mostly black and all the cops or white LOL what the hell man :-)
Watch my building I’d it isn’t clear Watch me build one of the previous extreme sets buildings, a lot of the roofs are the same Make sure you do it right because it’s cardboard and if you mess up you can’t fix it
Your tutorials and reviews are vital and entertaining! Thank you!
Thank you very much
Thanks for watching
Thank you! I had no clue had to get those roofs together. This made is so easy. Thank you so much!
I had to watch their tutorial to understand, if I died by myself, I’d have messed it up bad
Your collection is very impressive. Thanks for all the comparison. Lots of info there
You’re welcome, thanks for watching
Splendid tutorial. I was having a hard time with the roof tops ,& it definitely helped . Thanks 🙏
You are welcome, I don’t think I would have been able to do it without watching the original tutorial.
so happy to know I'm not the only one who struggled with the rooftop !!!!
At 5:23 it was off camera, kinda confused right now
Are you building it with my tutorial?
@@dHuntersReviews yes
Basically the tabs go under the other tabs. It’s rough as you fold them over, but each tab will go under the folds, once you fold it all it should be fairly stable, hard to do as your doing it though. You can check out extreme sets tutorial on one of the older buildings if that helps.
@@dHuntersReviews i watched your older building and it helped alot. But the 2nd rooftop wouldnt go so i just taped it
You pain me saying you taped it =(
It should be fine once it’s on top though
Shouldn’t see anything
So in terms of durability, do you have any issues getting figures to pose on the cardboard? It doesn't bow or bend under their weight?
No issues with that
Over time the walls have curled slightly, but not by much
Some of the earlier buildings had different rooftop designs and I just put empty boxes inside the building to support the roof
Couple of the other sets of floor pieces that have curled slightly
Great reviews! Starting to get into these sets.
They can make some really cool displays!
I really appreciate these videos. I just bought the Sewer 2.0 which is my first extreme set, and these videos are helping me make informed decisions on which buildings are going to fit best in my displays. Thank you!

Not sure what rugs you are referring to.

I'll have to check!
I been looking at these and wondering if they were worth it for sets and such for photography and stop motion, excellent thorough review!
I think they really, biggest issue, you can sometimes see gaps between the cardboard pieces
Decent look ! (worth all your work buildin it).I could see me usin it for my BTAS stuff, or TMNT.Oddly enuf ,as an OLD collector ,the late 60,s -early 70,s had lots of cardboard/fiberboard buildings for toys & plastic Marx figs.Coll to see them around again .Good stuff : D thanks
It’s gonna make a great part of my city.
@@dHuntersReviews DEF ! now ,they need to offer a set w/pawn shop & bodago!
Pawn shop would be cool.
@@dHuntersReviews right : D ,mabie a laundrymat....
Nice suggestions
The hardest part did off camera. Sweet
What do you mean?
Dhunter whats your timezone cause you upload when i am sleeping lol
I do the videos and then it takes a while to edit, render, upload, etc
Do you leave them up or do you store them in something
I don’t feel comfortable disassembling them constantly
They are incorporated into my action figure city
Does the 3.0 roof top fit on the 6.0 building? 1st or 2nd floor?
It would fit on the bottom part. 1st floor.
Dude your video was essential for me to figure out these damn roofs. Also, I need your advice on how you find so many civilian-type figures.
The roofs are difficult
In most of my videos I show civilian type figures
You can ask me about any of them I’ll tell you
Awesome thanks! Off the top of my head, who is the nurse looking lady with the clipboard in this video? I see the police are Neca with one having a Star Trek head.
Dc direct Arkham origins Harleen quinzel
@@dHuntersReviews ah I see. Perfect thanks again man!
where do you get the road pieces?
The more bare Toys R Us versions of the Diamond Select Toys Gotham figures.
@@dHuntersReviews does it only come with certain figures or is it with all of the toys r us versions?
All the Toys “R” Us versions came with some sort of sidewalk or road pace, each wave had a different type
You make some really great diorama sets. I would love to see a wayne manor farm the dark knight rises "Wollaton hall" or the one from Batman the animated series. Will take a lot of space though
Check extreme sets mansion review I did
Very cool
Thx
I wonder if Extreme would ever do the original Transformers base
Anyone remember that one?
Awesome video!!
I will be picking up some of these soon
Great tips 👌
I really enjoy their stuff
They just did one. It's called command center
Sweet
Indeed
Thankyou so much you safeme a lot of money with your reciew, i wait this and building 3 and 4
You want?
You're welcome.
@@dHuntersReviews i mean that i don't now which diorama buy, extreme set, neca or 12 world, but when i saw your reviews i decide the extreme set, and i am waiting my 3 building from extreme set, excelent collection.
Neca is my favorite of those
Twelve World is too expensive and they often have flaws
@@dHuntersReviews Will this diorama look good on neca tmnt 6in figures ?
Oh yeah.

Yeah, the buildings have to stay up
Same with the cabin
Can the subway terminal and subway train get put away easily?
does anybody else do dio reviews?
I don t remember any...
; it s good to be the King!
ha, ha
because I m experienced in lego city, I can see a common flaw,
each building should have a mat - floor that includes the sidewalks...
it flashes bright to me, as I m 'in the business' of urban miniatures
it would look sooo much better with a mat with sidewalks bro
since you have money, an insulation foam sheet is what I d go for
1' thick is sidewalk s height or about, the trap....
you need to decide which buildings will be corners....
because sidewalks will be different, as they are then shaped as "L"
as opposed to '----'...... one strip only
maaan, you have police, ambulance, medics?
ouh, you have to use those in stories or something... I d looove to have that!
if the bar thing goes well, maybe an outside would complement - rock!
then, a back alley where the REAL dirty stuff happens...
and the police and ambulance... oh come on!
it s a movie set bro!
Mel Brooks, ; it s good to be the King!
so now you know...
good show bro
Thank you
I have a whole world
I'm still having issues with the rooftop
They are very difficult to assemble properly
Easy to permanently ruin
This is completely awesome I have to scribe button to have one question why were all the bad guys mostly black and all the cops or white LOL what the hell man :-)
I made sure to put a white guy in there! Lol
I just ordered this, am putting it together, but I feel like a dummy because I can't wrap my brain around the roof tabs 😅
Watch my building
I’d it isn’t clear
Watch me build one of the previous extreme sets buildings, a lot of the roofs are the same
Make sure you do it right because it’s cardboard and if you mess up you can’t fix it
@@dHuntersReviews Thank you! I finally got it. Too many dang tabs lol
Yeah, it is complicated, not the way it looks.
I fucked my rooftop I'm pretty sure. Couldn't even hot glue it in place after all the tabs ripped off...
Damn...=(
I watched their tutorial, it is not very self explanatory without guidance.
That's why I tried to make it as detailed as possible here.
@@dHuntersReviews I ended up just using a nail gun. But it did the trick to get the rooftops together and I'm sure it'll be extra sturdy ha 😅
As long as you never plan to disassemble it…
They are not so cheap since they re carboard
They are not cheap, but they do hold up nicely and look pretty good for the most part
Everything looks flat..
Believe it or not it’s 3D.
