American Diorama Behind the Scenes Sets: Build a 1:64 Film-Production Display

Published by

American Diorama Behind the Scenes AD-2426MJ 1:64 set with four people and three accessories; car excluded

American Diorama’s two Behind the Scenes packs each give you four people and three accessories for a 1:64 film-production display. Choose your own car for the scene: the demonstration vehicle is not included in either seven-piece set.

These packs suit a shoot arranged around a favorite model. Start with the car you want to show, then compare the crew poses and equipment in the two galleries.

Original Behind the Scenes: AD-2426MJ

The original Behind the Scenes set, AD-2426MJ contains four people and three accessories in diecast metal. The figures are listed at approximately one inch tall.

You will need to supply the car, base and any buildings separately. Look closely at the pictured poses and props to decide whether this pack fits the scene you have in mind.

Behind the Scenes #2: AD-2428MJ

Behind the Scenes #2, AD-2428MJ uses the same format: four people and three accessories, diecast-metal construction, and figures approximately one inch tall.

The second pack changes your choice of scene pieces, rather than the figure count or scale. Compare the photos before choosing. The descriptions do not specify working cameras, powered lights or articulated parts, so treat them as display pieces.

Choose the car before the scene’s footprint

Set the car down first, at the angle you want to see it. Then arrange the four figures and three accessories around it without hiding the bodywork that drew you to the model.

Allow more space than the car alone needs. Equipment beside the doors and figures near the bumpers can quickly fill a small base. Leave a clear way to lift the car out without catching a prop.

Use one clear viewing direction

Choose the main viewing side before placing the crew. A gap in the arrangement can give you a better view of the car than an even ring of figures around it.

Keep the props freestanding unless a specific connection is documented. The set does not establish mounting points on your car or equipment designed to support its weight.

Do you need both sets?

One pack is enough to try the idea. Buying both gives you eight people and six accessories, so lay out the available space before deciding you need the larger crew.

Compare the pack photos with figures you already own, too. The descriptions do not establish that every sculpt and accessory differs between the two sets.

Add scenery only when it helps

The separately sold LA Graffiti display, AD-2424MJ is one possible street backdrop. Its listed footprint is 7.75 × 5.125 inches; check your arrangement against that space, since a car and full crew have not been test-fitted here.

Try the car and figures together before choosing the base. These pieces let you create a production setting of your own; combining them does not identify it as a licensed movie scene.
