Anyone interested in a custom klicky swap event?

Registration for this event is now closed and the final list of partners has been drawn up. :)

The idea is that each member who wants to participate creates a custom figure as a secret gift for another member. 8-)

On other forums which hold these types of events, the people involved are sometimes given the names of their intended recipients, but I tend to favour a more random approach as it seems more fun - and also fairer - not knowing exactly who will receive your figure. I am willing to act as a central receiving point (I'm based in the UK) and to redistribute the gifts. :)

Edit: The above idea has been altered slightly since first conception, since a number of members voiced a preference for knowing exactly who would be receiving their custom figure. All participants will now be given the postal addresses of their selected recipients (privately) and will be able to post their gifts directly to that person.

The figures can be as simple or elaborate as you wish - it can be a classic custom created only by swapping of original Playmobil parts, or you can make it more unique with some paint or self-made parts. No fancy boxes or gift-wrapping will be needed, but you can of course include a small card with your klicky. :yup:

I know that Christmas is traditionally the time to hold such a gift swap, but this holiday period is a very busy time of year for most of us due to family commitments. It's also more difficult to predict postal delivery times in December, and there's more chance that small items can get lost due to the increase in packages being mailed at that time of year. :-\

Ideally, I would like to hold this event in November as a celebration of PlaymoFriends entering its third year on the web! :confetti:  <:D   :bdaycake:  :**:  :woohoo: 

Some of the members here have already expressed an interest in this idea by PM to me. :)

Please post to this topic if you are enthusiastic about joining in PlaymoFriends Birthday Klicky-Swap. :D

I'd be happy to join in, but if you dont know who your sending to, how do you know what you should make?

TT

Sounds like fun, Sylvia ... but er ... if you're going to do all the distributing; will it not be incredible expensive from your side ???

Count me in, sounds like fun (and cheap for me since I live in the UK)

It'd be easier to create something appropriate if we know who the recipient will be - they needn't know who made the custom klicky (though you will).
