Some quick notes..
- Inspired by oriental movies and ninja-themed displays.
- Displayed last weekend October 2-3, 2010 at the Robinson’s Place Manila Mall (Philippines) in celebration of Collecticon 2010, organized by Hobbiworx and PinoyToyKolektors (PTK).
- Brought to you by the same team that came up with O: Shock and Awe, O: Killzone, O: Forced Entry, O: Gothic Serpent, O: Sidewinder Verde, O: Grayia Seize-r, and O: Ivory Blanket...the Philippines only local 3 3/4 (1:18) Joe online community..Toysoldier118
- This diorama changes display every two three hours. It is the first of its kind in the Philippines for action figures (regardless of scale). We dubbed it as a "dynamic modular diorama" or DMD. In this case, it is called Dynamic Modular DOJO-rama.
- Took 3 weekends of preparation and actual dio-work to complete (figures/structures/vehicles). Mostly done on Saturdays only.
- Collabo done by at least 8-10 members (builders, pledgers/financiers, consultants, etc.).
- Dojo panels allowed the team to display it as U-shaped to show dojo interior, or in a straight line to simulate the dojo facade.
- Featured GI Joe customs in 25A body (Slice, Dice, Jinx DDP, unmasked SS & SE) plus hidden mickeys (Deadpool Sensei, Kakashi Sensei, Deathstroke, Rha's Al Ghul, and a tribute to the legend...BRUCE LEE).

This is wonderful. Love all the various setups and the stories they tell... and the cameos are wonderful.

Great job!

Your displays are always the best. Here, how you don't use large figure stands, it brings the figures to life and it does look like a scene from a movie. Enter The Dragon, American Ninja, Enter The Ninja, Nine Deaths of the Ninja, you can see all of that and more in this dojorama display.

Thank you Joecustoms forum-mates for the positive words about our group's dojo-rama display. We always use Bostik Blu Tac for our figs so that we can better display them in action poses, and it does take quite some time before we get to finish a certain set-up (15 minutes).

Some pics of the team in action.

From the rest of the team (and a couple of TS118 cosplayers - Snake Eyes = yours truly and Storm Shadow), here's a big HOO-AH! :)

Your (TS118) displays are ; you make displays that make hasbro's own stuff for shows look sad and half hearted. I am always glad to see them.

ABSOLUTE POETRY!

You must be very proud to have that one displayed publicly!

Rockage, to the parts of the universe unknown.

What a master. :-D

ThMick and Cap,
We can only pull it off as a team. Without the team effort, it would be next to impossible. Besides, it's more fun when you display a dio-project with a bunch of guys who share your enthusiasm and geekery. :) Thanks for the kind words.

Here's how we did it:
