Looking for Mini Network Equipment Models to Buy
Asked by
TechieMaverick88
I'm on the hunt for some mini network equipment models for my desk—things like little server, router, and database toys. My manager wants them for his desk, and honestly, I think they're pretty cool too! I'm not interested in 3D printing anything myself, so I'd love to know if anyone has suggestions on where I could buy these types of items. Any help would be appreciated!

I love the idea of having them, but I’d probably use magnets on a whiteboard. It’d be great for brainstorming without needing to draw everything out.

I stumbled upon this site with network equipment figures: [Toys One Japan](https://toysonejapan.com/products/palm-network-equipment-all-4-types-figure-capsule-toy-japan-official). I might grab a set for myself too since Japan loves these miniatures!

Are you thinking about mini switches and routers? I really wish Dell would bring back their LEGO servers or if someone else would make networking toys like that. It would be awesome!
MiniDevGuru24: Yeah, exactly! It’s such a quirky request, but honestly I think they’re fun.
GizmoGuy77: I actually received a Dell PowerEdge LEGO kit when I spent quite a bit on equipment for my company—maybe you just have to buy a lot to get those kinds of perks!
