公主新娘-从书到大片到砖

The Princess Bride is a 1987 movie based on a book, with that same book at the heart of the film. This set encapsulates that idea: there are a variety of ways to display and play with this build, with the brick-built book standing as the central pillar. Open the book and the landscape moves with it; remove the book and you'll discover the story's narrator and his increasingly immersed grandson.

I designed this set to be as versatile as possible, while leaving a relatively small footprint. I wanted something that really brought all those iconic moments together, where the focus was on the character of the scene itself, rather than sprawling landscapes.

Personally, I believe this would make a great set as it serves as both a display piece and incorporates play features. The seven mini-figures -- Princess Buttercup, Westley, Vizzini, Fezzik, Inigo Montoya, and the grandfather and grandson -- can be posed in a variety of ways to re-enact scenes, or create those that never made it to the movie. Why not have the grandson scale the Cliffs of Insanity, too?

A quick overview of the features:

Thank you for looking at this model! I had a huge amount of fun designing and building it, and I hope any Princess Bride fans will get a kick out of it.
