I was having a look on Ebay a couple of weeks ago and happened to spot these 2 little fellas who I won :knight:
(http://i1103.photobucket.com/albums/g462/DoctorDalek6/P1260083web.jpg)
I was very excited as the fella with the black hair is just like the Knight well Prince technically that I had as a kid all be it the helmets are not the same (he would have come with a golden crown with a triangle on the front originally) and one of the swords is different but, it's a darn sight good enough for me. He was one of my favourite figures as a kid but, I lost him somewhere and the only part I have left is his hair piece which the Eagle Eyed amongst you will notice my Mechanic is now wearing, looking at these figures now I can totally understand why I loved them so much.

Of course my Knight was eager to meet the new guys even if he doesn't know that they're technically Princes ;D ;)

He wanted to try on some of the helmets I'd still like to get him a shield, helmet, spurs and black dog like he wold have originally come with and poossibly a beard but, he looks cool for now ...

Those are some cool knights. Unfortunately, I don't have any of that style though. Nice buys, DrDalek6! ;)

Thanks here's his details says he was first released in 1994 till 1997 which sounds about right to me I would have been about 3 when he was first released and the first photos I have of him which I'll try to upload at some point were taken when we were celebrating my sisters birthday which would have been about July 1996

That's nice that you got back some figures that you used to have. And your knight is getting more equipment. :lol:
-
You're makin' me feel old... :P
That was the best era for knights figures (1990's).
Good find, by the way.

Well it#s not hard after all I'm only about 20 ;) ;D I'm used to it most of the staff and thinking about it volunteers I work with at the Botanics, City Centre and BTCV are in their 40's, 50's some of the F.O.B.S. older still, anyway I can only speak really of my era and afterwards I'll always view it from a biased stand point it's such a cool theme :)

Thanks that's what it's all about well for the minute at least, reminded me that I wanted to scan the old photos that I dug up into the scanner ah well always tomorrow :) ;).

Greatb knights 8-)

Its easy to find the crown and the helmet and the rest of the gear for these knights :) An ebay search does wonders!!

That seems like a very unique crown though. You ought to see if you can order one from DS; you never know what they might have lying around. :lol:

Thanks my specific internet searches never meet with much success porbably not using the right buzzwords, I'll leave it a bit as I was saying on one of the AM fourms my Mum's getting suspicious that i'm spending too much on my parcels and I've got some thigns on the way so I'm trying to spread it out a bit ;)

You never know problem is most of the bits I'm after would be from several years ago as it's from the mid - late 1990's I think it said from 2 - 3 years ago give or take a bit worth a try though ;).

Thanks gald you like them :)

He's a great fellow, the fourth knight I owned, after the guys in my avatar.
A noble prince who always had an obsession with gold. A friendly enough guy but a bit greedy. ;) Always admired golden objects of other clickies.
He's been with me for a long time.

Cool it's great that you've still got your old friends and that he's got a back story as well sounds like a cool little fella :) ;)
-
He was yes, maybe a bit underappreciated since I liked the other three knights better and he kind of tagged along with them.
These days I plan to use this fellow as an antagionist. He could make for a great scheming prince I think, a mastermind behind darker looking knights.

As promised here's a few childhood photos of the original version of this Knight
(http://i1103.photobucket.com/albums/g462/DoctorDalek6/SCN_0026web.jpg)
In this photo we're celebrating my sisters birthday at my Grandma's house, that's me with my Dad, I'm pretending to blow the candles out again, it looks like my Knight's found himself a nice big crisp ;D ;)
(http://i1103.photobucket.com/albums/g462/DoctorDalek6/SCN_0027web.jpg)
And this one was taken on my 5th birthday with me surrounded by my Knights and some of his friends, I'd bet the dragon lit the candles and now they're all waiting for a slice of cake ;)
-
Nice! I hope the dragon didn't eat all of your cake. :lol:

Ain't it just so these are from my parents family photo album which is why I'm in them, wish I had some clearer photos of all of my toys oh for a digital camera even a decen film camera of my own, would make it so much easier when trying to identify and research all those toys at least you've got some good photos of your Playmo friends and no doubt lots of happy memories :) ;)
Nice! I hope the dragon didn't eat all of your cake. :lol:
Thanks :lol: ;D I don't think the Dragon did not with all those Knights to keep him in place :-[ ;)

If clickies could sing I am sure they would have at your birthdays. ;)
(or maybe they are such poor singers that they just stay silent and smile instead to save our ears. such good pals they are. :lol: )

:lol: Never know either way I love my wee pals, I always say the chances are you'll only hear me singing when I don't know there's anyone there because if I know you're there my voice'll automatically put the stoppers on having said that I always sing along to one of ym favourite bands Gerry And The Pacemaker when it's my turn to clean the cabin so you might catch me rock and rolling ;) ;D. Oh yeah I love Playmoelvis he's really great and that hair is totally awesome.

Thanks that Dragon was really cool, man I can remember being given a soft Monster toy or something like that who was acutally rather friendly looking if I remember right and he had a great red chain with a thing to go on the foot and a padlock great for keeping the Dragon under control :) ;)
