An Ordinary Radio Station... Or Something More?

  The warm glow of the evening sun hits the pavement as kids ride their bikes past a quiet brick building on the edge of town. To anyone driving by, WSQK 94.5 FM is just playing top 40 pop hits and local news. But as night falls and red lightning flashes across a darkening sky, the airwaves crackle with static—and frantic voices transmit coded warnings about a shadow creeping into our world. This innocent-looking broadcast hub isn't just playing music; it’s the last line of defense against an otherworldly threat.


  Step right into the center of the story with the Barweer BWR107 Radio Building, a modular, 2-in-1 brick set that lets you build both the peaceful 1980s radio station and its dark, corrupted counterpart. Let’s take a closer look at what makes this set so special!


Calm Before the Storm: The Vintage 80s Broadcast Hub

  Barweer BWR107 Radio BuildingIn its Normal Form, the set captures the iconic charm and peaceful nostalgia of a vintage 1980s mid-century radio outpost. Every exterior detail works together to tell the story of a small-town broadcast center operating in quiet harmony before strange occurrences begin to unfold.

  • Classic Architecture & Nostalgic Aesthetics: The building’s facade is constructed with clean off-white brickwork, giving it a solid, retro utility aesthetic. Dark brown-framed windows with green translucent panes bring a distinct mid-century flair to the front, mimicking classic glass-block broadcast booth windows. 

  • High-Tech Communications Array: The roof and surrounding structures are packed with realistic broadcast gear designed to capture the functional feel of an 80s signal station. The roof level features dish antennas, detailed ventilation units, rooftop air ducts, and industrial piping mounted along the exterior walls. Standing tall alongside the station is a massive red-and-white lattice signal tower, complete with a multi-tiered antenna array at the top—engineered to transmit both everyday music and emergency communications across the entire valley.

  • Small-Town Atmosphere & Daily Life: To bring the scene to life, small storytelling props are scattered around the grounds. A pair of detailed vintage bicycles—a blue one and a yellow one—are parked near the entrance, hinting at the young heroes who have just arrived on-site. Green ground plates with small terrain patches and stone-paved steps lead right up to the double entry doors, perfectly conveying the calm, everyday rhythm of small-town life before chaos erupts.



Signals from the Dark Side: The Upside Down Takes Over!

  Barweer BWR107 Radio BuildingWhen a supernatural force strikes the quiet station, the peaceful broadcast hub transforms into a battleground against the unknown. Thanks to its clever 2-in-1 design, you can easily convert the entire model from a pristine 80s building into its dark, corrupted, and eerie form.

  • Creeping Alien Vines: As the portal between worlds expands, deep blue purple tendrils crawl across the building’s exterior. These detailed vine elements wrap around the roof, cling to the off-white brick walls, and scale the red signal tower, dramatically showing the alien corruption taking over the structure.

  • Warped Spire & Battle Damage: The physical strain of the supernatural anomaly takes a heavy toll on the station's equipment. The tip of the giant communications tower snaps at a sharp angle, replaced by a lightning-struck, warped spire piece that highlights the chaotic energy surging through the radio frequency.

  • Dramatic Atmospheric Shift: With just a few part swaps and vine additions, the overall display completely changes its tone. What was once a cozy, small-town radio station instantly becomes a tense, apocalyptic survival outpost—perfect for dramatic storytelling and creating an eye-catching contrast on your display shelf!



Behind Closed Doors: Modular Secrets & Easter Egg Hunt

  Beyond its dual exterior forms, the interior of the BWR107 is packed with high-level playability, interactive mechanisms, and nostalgic 80s pop-culture details. Designed with modularity in mind, exploring the inside of the station is an adventure in itself.

  • Pull-Out Control Studio: The core of the facility features a glass-partitioned broadcast operation room that smoothly slides out from the rear of the building. Inside, you’ll find a fully detailed studio equipped with vintage audio mixers, dual vinyl turntables, a broadcast microphone, control panels with gauges, comfortable seating, and station paperwork—making it easy to pose your figures for a live broadcast.

  • Retro Lounge Area: Surrounding the control studio is a cozy breakroom floor paved with a classic black-and-white checkerboard tile pattern. The lounge is furnished with a retro sofa, single armchairs, a coffee table, a boxy  television set, a floor lamp, a radio receiver, and packed bookshelves, perfectly capturing a mid-80s aesthetic.

  • Nostalgic Props & Easter Eggs: Tucked throughout the studio and storage areas are iconic items for sharp-eyed fans to discover. The set includes a yellow sports cap, walkie-talkies for long-range communication, a retro instant camera, a slingshot, a die and makeshift defensive equipment like a spiked baseball bat and a sword for when strange creatures attack!

  • Quick-Release & Easy-Access Structure: To ensure seamless play and display options, both the roof section and the side entrance corridors feature a quick-release design. You can easily remove top modules to view the interior from above or detach sections for full access to every room without disturbing your setup.
