In 1961 he year of the fallout shelter had begun. As TIME—which generally took a rah-rah tone on shelter-building—tracked the trend over the next months, a major public effort began to mark and equip existing public shelters and encourage individuals to build their own versions. A Gallup poll that August revealed that 3 million families had made changes to their homes for the purpose of protection, and another 9 million had stocked up on food. Some builders reported being overwhelmed by orders for shelters that would meet Office of Civil and Defense Mobilization standards: concrete or metal, under either three feet of soil or two feet of concrete or three inches of lead, with enough space for its occupants. A Department of Defense booklet about preparation was a runaway hit. Though it could be expensive to get a regulation prefab shelter installed, many people made do with simple DIY options.

Holly c@#p I had to do a double take to see if they were actually real or models. Fantastic and you are truly an artist.

This exceeded my expectations. Instead of choosing which building to put it in, I may have to order another one. Totally Awesome product!!!

Teach Valley Railroad

Thank you. The MINIMEs arrived safely. I think MINIMEs are Macro ‘Mazing!

DC Cebula

I just had to take a moment and comment how incredible your products are. They arrive clean and crisp. I have a 3d Resin printer myself that I use for some pieces but in all honesty it isn’t worth it for me to print the items I can buy from you. Awesome job.

Bill Rutherford
Lancaster, NH

Just received my order AWESOME, These things are just AWESOME, so detailed. Everybody needs to check you out.

Brent Bowman
Lucas, Ohio

Just funny, clever, and great! Sometimes the “H” in HO has to stand for “humor”!! I am still smiling & chuckling. I know, simple pleasure for a simple mind…. Anyway, thank you, and well done.

Henry Mikus

Our layout is sort of a “scavenger hunt” of oddities. This is a perfect addition.

Dan Zomer

miniprints has some of the finest figures and details available in the market today.

Shawn Karney

I just wanted to give a quick shoutout to miniprints. If you haven’t heard about them then you’ve been living under a rock! Bernard makes some of the best 3D resin printed details and definitely the most unique in the industry!

Dan Pugatch

You are actually an excellent resource for some hard to find items. I’m gonna sit down and really go through your catalog and place a larger order. Thanks for what you do!

Bill Masters

You have filled a big modelling hole.
