As most of you know, I tend to think outside of the box when it comes to my hobby. I often go beyond the usual action figure lines looking for inspiration and potential fodder.
Today at K-Mart I found this set of faux stone borders in their garden section.
In each box you get 8 wall sections, one "male" endcap, one "female" endcap and an assortment of long and short stakes to fasten them into your lawn.
1 wall piece with female endcap (front left), male endcap (front right) (stakes not pictured).
Male and female endcaps attached to a wall piece.
The wall pieces look great next to 3.75"/4" figures and can be used to make not just walls but square structures as well.
4 sided "fort" (you can make 2 of these with the box's contents).

In the pictures, you will see that I also have some great faux stone stepping stones that make great capstones or even bases for the square structures.

This set was only $24 and well worth it. You will need to trim off flash along all of the edges, fill the round openings for the stakes and do a repaint for total realism, but any project requires some manual labor.
