3D ballparks can be used to replace the cardstock ones that come with the game and season releases. They are printed with a material called "PLA," which is a plastic derived from corn.
The models are modular, with a universal platform over which a ballpark "fence" is placed between two sets of tabs. The 7.5" x 7.5" platform is used for all models, and includes information for depths and lanes through d20 rolls of 10.
Ballpark fence models include further information for each park, including depths from d20 rolls 11 and up and lane ranges. They vary in height depending upon the actual height of the ballpark fences (a scale of 1mm = 1foot is used for height).
When ordering, be sure to add a "platform" if you don't already have a copy. MANY OF THE INDIVIDUAL PHOTOS OF THE BALLPARKS ON THIS PAGE SHOW A PLATFORM WHICH IS SOLD SEPARATELY FROM THE INDIVIDUAL FENCE MODELS.
Ballparks are sold individually and also include a Buy 4 - Get 1 Free discount (applied automatically at checkout). You can also buy a complete set (e.g., "All 1960 Parks") at a substantial discount, which also includes a FREE platform!
Complete sets may include some of the same parks! For example, if you were to order the "All 1960 Parks" and "All 1961 Parks" there would be several duplicates, as ballparks do not change on a yearly basis. Check the date range (explained earlier) to see which parks are included with each complete set.
Ballparks of the Past are available with "grass green" bases by default, but can be used with any of the platforms available. Changes to the base color (light green, dark green) are available by request.
All of the Ballparks of the Past orders include some "amenities," including light standards, flagpoles, bleacher sections, scoreboards, and signage.
Models may differ somewhat from the photos shown depending upon the availability of certain PLA colors and textures. Some orders may take some extra time to be completed, as pieces are printed on an as-ordered basis.
The date range for each park is meant to provide information as for when the configuration of the park was valid, and not meant to indicate when the park existed. For example, "SF 1960-1960" holds the configuration for San Francisco's park during the 1960 season, after which the configuration was changed. "CHA 1950-1968" indicates that the configuration for the Chicago White Sox was used from 1950-1968.
