My Scooby Stuff - Day 194 - Mystery Mansion Playset

Day 194 - Mystery Mansion Playset

The Character Options Ltd. Scooby-Doo Mystery Mansion playset works well with the Scooby Mystery Mate figures. They are the perfect size for the playset. Assembled, it measures 15.75" H x 13" L x 5.51" W. The playset opens up to make play easier. There are several traps set up in the mansion too.

You can see the crack on the side, which is where it opens and the other side has hinges. The side views aren't very exciting.

The back of the mansion is pretty plain too.

This is what the playset looks like while it's open. The inside of the mansion is very well decorated and has a bunch of traps.

Here is a closer look at the left side of the playset.

And a closer look at the right side of the playset.

The bookcase rotates so you see 2 different pictures. It's so very Scooby!

The stairs are a trap! If you step on the switch, the door under the stairs opens to show the Ghost Clown from Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! Bedlam in the Bigtop.

The chandelier is a trap too! It falls from the ceiling beam.

There is a trap door in the floor. Watch out for the creepy hands that are trying to grab you!

The couch is a trap too! Sit on it, and you're going to go flying!

Watch out for spiders! They fall from the ceiling on the front porch!
