Title: Playmobil Skyscraper
Post by: The Admiral on January 14, 2010, 16:58:23
Hi here is my customized skyscraper which counts 13 floors and is over 6 ft tall. I built it this afternoon. It features several offices and 2 apartments. I couldn't reach the two top floors as they where to high. Enjoy the photos and the captions.

WOW! That's tall :o
It looks like it'd be a bit precarious in high winds 8}
Great building Admiral :)9

Great structure. They must need to lower the rent on those top 2 floors to get them filled up. With real estate like it is now there's too much empty business space.  ;)

If it's not, it'll be the LONGEST Playmobil building!

Seriously though, a great custom.   :wave:

Hello Admiral  :wave:

That is the tallest System X building I have ever seen. Nice job on the tower.

   
Excellent! I hope it's quake-proof too   ;D

Now that you moved to the west coast you have earthquakes on the mind  :lol: Wait a minute we were just talking about Arcata and Eureka and now look at the place  :hmm:

Hey Admiral you better tie the building to the wall  :lol:

That's an amazingly tall skyscraper!  I bet it was fun to build and even more fun to figure out and furnish each floor.

Hi and Thanks for he great comments. I'm still looking for the elevator for it, but I very much doubt It will reach the 13th floor. Believe it or not I once built one 20 stories but it wasn't as structurally as safe as this one. Also I started to run out of height space.

Great skyscraper, Admiral :wow:

I like the detail you put in the rooms!

(Should you be building a tall ship!?) ;D

Best regards,
Jimbo

There is always outside ;)! I expect your future DS order for elevator/building parts will be a very large one  :omg:!

Excellent but I think you need a ghost or a skeleton in the 13th floor. Most skyscrapers renumber the floors to miss out 13 as it's bad luck!  :0
