Title: Ladies and gentlemen: we got him!
Post by: Keesinho on December 04, 2011, 11:17:39
Every collector will recognize it. Their quest for the holy grail. That one set that you want so badly, but cannot get hold of. Or..at least not for a reasonable price. For me its no different.

This set always eluded me.... often it was because it was for sale at ludicrous prices, a few times I just lost a bidding war, but this time, it was my turn to celebrate!

Its not 100% complete, you can see the damage easily. But look at it...for the rest its in an unbelievably good state!

Have a look for yourself, I'm really proud of this jewel in my playmo crown!

Congratulations.  The title led me to believe this was going to be a diorama of a completely different topic though.

Good job, great you found it. By now you can make a small western village already.

Once I've sorted out my attic, I plan to make a little town :) All the beautiful dioramas i've seen around here are very inspiring!

Really nice one! Just noticed by seeing this that this front is unique, am I right? with the door at one side and that double window?

Could be great to see a real western stand off in the streets of a western town.  :)

hahaha... and what kind of music are you hearing now, I bet something of Ennio Morricone...

Congratulations, keesinho! Very nice one. Have you visited the shop of Hanzalkmaar on eBay yet? Usually, he's got a lot of this theme.

I have not, but I'm off there now to have a look :) Thx for the tip!


And yeah...Ennio Morricone, Clint Eastwood...its those things that triggered my love for Westerns and thus Western Playmo :)

It looks like a "normal" belt for carrying a sword, which some knights have.
