Title: "Special" wedding couple
Post by: Ronastoo on January 19, 2011, 09:14:21
I have two daughters.  One of them likes Playmobil.  The other one tolerates Playmobil.   ;D

Four years ago my older daughter got married and because she is the one who likes Playmobil we used it to decorate her wedding cake.  We'd joked about pirates coming to kidnap her from the wedding and that is the scene that we used for the cake.  You can see the blonde wedding couple on top of the cake as the pirates try to climb up there for the abduction.

My younger daughter is getting married this summer.  She's the one who only tolerates Playmobil and because of that I'd been teasing her about getting the new wedding couple to be the topper for her cake.  (I wasn't really planning to do that.  It would be mean to put a toy on her cake when she doesn't really enjoy the toy.)

Besides... my daughter's not blonde and her fiance has a beard.  They don't look anything like the new wedding couple.  But, Emily does want purple to be her wedding color and the dress is the right color.

When the ghost pirates were released in the US I got some of them and Emily thought they were zombies!  So I ordered the new wedding couple and two of 4694 Hooded Ghost and I made them a custom wedding couple!

Emily likes them.  She might even really use them on the cake.   :lol:

That'd be so cool to find a bride who wouldn't mind having playmobil klickies as our wedding cake topper, let alone ZOMBIE klicky wedding toppers!

Nice customs, btw :D

They are AWESOME MamaDrago(n)!!

I hadn't seen how cool the wedding dress is so I will be ordering that as well soon. But making them into Zombies is hilarious...and extra fun she likes them enough to consider them for the cake.

Thanks for sharing!

First of all, I LOVE the pirates kidnapping the bride scene! That's AWESOME! I really wish I had used playmobil on my wedding cake. And the zombie bride and groom are so funny!  :lol: I hope your daughter decides to use them.

Now I'm going to go add the happy klicky couple to my wish list.  :love:

HI

That dress actually looks like the same color tone as your zombies face. If only there was a way to change the original cream skin on her neck and arms . The dress looks so white in the Playmobil picture.

Thanks for sharing your wedding story

Yes, now that I see a better picture of how the dress looks, I really want it! Why doesn't playmobil do their own products justice with the pictures?  ???

We are going to try painting the flesh toned skin on the bride with some glow in the dark paint.  Hmm... maybe I should practice on a spare arm before I actually try it on the bride.  I'll let you know how it looks when it's finished.

Hi

That paint job on the neck looks way to challenging for my shaky hands. I would have to beg my wife to do it and then she would wonder why I not only waste my time but now hers on such things  :P

Please let us know how it turns out as I personally think it would look much better in the Glow paint .

By the way are you suggesting the brides dress is actually glow in the dark  ???

It's not.  But, wouldn't that be fun!?

HI

It would be great and then we could have zombie weddings in the dark. I think the only glow in the dark parts that I can remember are the skeleton, pirate whale carcass the ghosts  :eh?: We need more, our boys love them and usually want to sleep with them as they glow. A bride would be a great subliminal message  ;) as my wife wants grand kids ASAP (more reasons to buy more Playmobil for me too :lol:)

Their heads (and his arms) are from 4694 Hooded Ghost so those parts glow in the dark.
It's rather disconcerting to turn off the light by the computer at bedtime and have the faces of the bride and groom glowing at me!
