>>5861707Yah, agree on what you just said, Fakimus. Something like the pic you show could be the future and salvation of the dollhouse hobby.
There's no reason for a Victorian with a music parlor featuring a piano and violins, cellos and Victrolas when modern action figure/doll collectors think that a music/entertainment room with guitars and big screen LED TVs is way more like it.
The IKEA apartment concept will work. Even superheroes need some downtime, and maybe they have meetings in these kinds of apartments. It's adaptable to Figmas and anything else that's about 6".
Another thought I have is that dollhouses don't need to be so complex (and expensive) with the lighting. There's no need for lighting tape, actual mini electrical outlets, or transformers that plug into the wall. All of this came from a time (1960's America) when that was the only way to light a dollhouse. Incandescent mini bulbs weren't bright enough nor energy efficient enough to run on batteries.
Modern alternative is the style of my Pakitoy bakery. All of the lighting is with 5 LEDS, all attached to a 9 volt battery. The entire house is very portable. Just pick it up and plunk it wherever- in the next room, downstatirs, anywhere. Everything, the dollhouse, all of the baked goods and the lighting was about $56.
