Recently, I've painted up some Dungeon Traps from Mantic, and while I'm not partial to plastic miniatures, I found these "terrain bits" to be useful and fun to paint. They are not Old School, but neither do they detract from the Old School æsthetic.

| Dungeon Traps Terrain Crate by Mantic |
Included in my "crate": a spring trap, a poison trap, a pit trap, and a blade trap. Also a lever, a ladder and a trap door. Finally, there is what looks to be a wooden chock on a rope; perhaps to be used with a boulder in the style of Indiana Jones.
These bits are easy to paint and yield a good result. Below are my own, painted versions - I did not need the ladder or wooden chock; they will appear in some later post.
Unfortunately, despite the reasonable price tag (USD $19.99/GBP £14.99), the set, as seen above, is no longer listed. Elements can be found in their Dark Lord's Tower crate, where the buyer receives two sets of Dungeon Traps for USD $29.99/GBP £24.99, plus some sorcerous bits-and-bobs, which seems to be a fairly good deal....
