I've never seen food. They had a very limited minifig PaB program, that seems to have stopped. Sometimes they'll have some specialized pieces (i.e. chairs, steering wheels, trees, plant stems, etc.). Last time I was at one in San Francisco, they had a bin full of brown dogs, which was surprising.

There are a lot of pieces in those MOCs. What pieces are you looking for? If you are looking for zombie heads, these could work:
Mandrakes (though they are expensive)
Harry Potter Troll
Burned Anakin
Darth Vader (in multiple variations)
Bib Fortuna (a severely underrated head, in my mind)
Adventurers Mummy

Very cool. I'd like to see a overall picture of the MOC. I'm having trouble getting a good sense of it from the pictures. The pictures and the details in them are great, but I can't seem to put it together in my head.
One thing I'd suggest changing is replacing the tan door hinges with white. They tan stands out too much.
Shared this over at http://www.adventurers.dk/ too...

I wonder if you made little displays from each theme (i.e. Adventurers, Castle, Space, Star Wars, Town, etc.) and then separated them with walls of burps. Kind of like how the train ride at Disneyland was done, with the train travelling through the tunnels to visit various scenes.
Steve
While it think villagers would be nice, I think its an unrealistic expectation. Not enough play value for the kiddies.
I think the best we could hope for is a civilian set mixed in with the conflict theme. Like a trolls attack the old mill set. Would come with a windmill. A few orcs with a battle machine. A couple of crown knights. And a miller. Something like this might be plausible since we've seen the peasant woman in the advent calendar.
Steve
If I had to guess with those options, I'd go with Elves.
I'd also like to see Elves. I bet we'd get some interesting building designs from that line.
Steve
Circus and cavemen and farm and zoo? Why does Duplo get all the best themes? Anyone of those in minifig scale would be wonderful.
Wish the belville pictures were bigger. I'm still hoping for a full turkey...
Thought this might help to:
p.1-3 Introduction
p.4-15 Duplo
p.16-21 Creator
p.22-25 Technic & Mindstorms
p.26-27 Belville
p.28 Theme Introduction
p.29-34 Town
p.35 Trains
p.36-37 Impulse
p.38-39 Castle
p.40-41 Agents
p.42 Exoforce
p.43-44 Indy
p.45-49 Star Wars
p.50 Bionicle & Racer's Intro
p.51-55 Racers
p.56-57 Ferarri
p.58-63 Bionicle
Steve
What a strange line. Not the idea of secret agents, per se. But there is just something about this whole line that feels bizarre to me.
Maybe it's the sharks with frickin' lasers attached to their heads?
Steve
Great work. Especially on the action with the figures. My only suggestion would be to fancy up the stadium walls. They're too monolithic. Maybe also put some shade (tents?) over the spectators.
Steve
Its a good start.
Though, since its not from the movies, I'm not sure what's going on.
I don't like the red very much. Also, the henchmen look a little too modern for Indy.
Steve
He looks a little too weighted down. Like he wouldn't be able to move under all that stuff. I'd ditch the pouches and slap a backpack on him. Maybe an adventurers style one, so he could have the stuff attached to it.
Steve
I must say that I'm horribly disappointed with the stickers. :-(
I'm not surprised that everything is stickered, but I'm still most horribly disappointed. :'-(
A great set brought down by stickers. *n*
