What we love about Artur Miniszewski from Mantis Miniatures' work is that the figures and accessories all seem to tell a unified story. This set combines the sets we have already seen of the man and hippie lady. You could combine this with AK Interactive's new VW Wagon to create a mini-diorama.

These are available right now from Mantis Miniatures at the Scale Model Challenge this weekend, they will also be available soon from their Distributors Worldwide...
