try to find a mysterious dollhouse roof

[playmo1989]

i see in some sites and in my collectors 1st. edittion book that they made bigger dollhouses but for making a largest dollhouse you need a large roof cover does anyone know where to find that or if these things exist on the market??

see the standard roofholder :  http://cgi.ebay.de/Playmobil-S0-Puppenhaus-5300-Dachplatte-/110514138519?cmd=ViewItem&pt=DE_Allesf%C3%BCrKind_Spielzeug_Playmobil&hash=item19bb27ed97

I would guess that a number of the standard 'roofholders' have been used, - probably cutting off the side edges so that they would fit together.

can they fit so well ?? i don't think so i have seen some other changed parts from the dollhouse the big windows  http://cgi.ebay.com/Playmobil-VICTORIAN-MANSION-5300-SUNROOM-WALL-WINDOW-/220574643660?cmd=ViewItem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item335b45f5cc   the down parts were removed!!!!!

Probably a good custom technic that only the one who did it can tell us...perhaps there is someone you can contact in that website?

(From Macgyver's topic in Community events - Essen 2/3 01 2010 Playmo Lego Börse) I'm not sure how to do the link.

The pieces that hold the roof together on the larger houses are from the last dollhouse
The smallones have been cut and pasted
If you look closely you'll see the difference in the colour

 i don't understand what he means??

I don't know how to paste a link to this, but go to Home, have a look in the 'Community events' section and find the "Essen 2/3 01 2010 Playmo Lego Börse" thread and look down the questions.
I asked Macgayver how they did the roofs and this was the answer he gave
"The pieces that hold the roof together on the larger houses are from the last dollhouse
The small ones have been cut and pasted"
By that I think that he means that he cut took some of the roofholders, cut them  and then glued them together to make the size he needed.
Hope this is clearer!

That is a good explanation and one that is most likely to be used, as it is used a lot in sets and parts like this one....cat what preventsyou from joining two or three parts together to make a bigger part for your creation...

well yes i think i got what he means . but there is no chance that these roofs were prodused as an add on set
