Good find ! If somebody going searching on ebay have a look at the packaging also :



This along with the kinetic toys, some white plastic trays and a gerber on a white table would make a nice little display piece for the cons....maybe something for this year.

Imagine a proper scaled scene background / green-screen, a white table & bench were con-visitors can sit & take pictures with the grunts...and recreating the bishop scene...
that would something different

That is awesome. Now we need to ID the juice pitchers!!! Never knew I needed a mess-hall display, but dog gonnit I definitely do.

I'm thinking the ones that aren't completely clear are by Rubbermaid, not sure on the clear ones yet though.

Thank you Storm56 for identifying this item! Building a mess hall display is a pet project of mine so this was a great find.

Oh, I like that. You need some fake food to go with the tray! Plenty of companies out there that offer realistic looking plastic cornbread, scrambled eggs and such.

Ive found two different versions of that mess tray. One has the dividers flatter and others are rounder but otherwise they are identical.
Did you paint that or find one in white? Iv only found them in bare aluminum. I wonder if there were disposeable plastic/white ones made at some point that were all used or destroyed due to BPAs.

Seven, I painted two metal trays white. A member on here made plastic copies at one point, but that was about ten years ago. Anyway, this looks the part!

The packaging is different but this is currently being advertised:

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BRABANTIA-Food-Warmer-Candle-Holder-Table-Serving-Retro-Style-Catering-Hostess/323975813244?hash=item4b6e76987c:g:-NYAAOSw9tFdyFUA

There also look to be versions that have circular holes in the metal grill.

The shipping on that one is brutal for overseas, bit a UK Marine should snap that up!

Good to see everybody find what it want ^^

StephenDutton, not screen accurate, on the movie food warmer the side of the metal grille make a curve

retrogarde, nice display with the tray. I am looking for plastic era tray but found nothing for the moment
