Title: WarriorOfToys
Post by: WarriorOfToys on February 17, 2010, 21:54:01

Hello everyone at PlaymoFriends!!!
I am soo glad to be here!
I have been following posts for a long time here, but only now have decided to actually join!!!  ::)

I am a huge fan of Playmobil, and have been ever since my first box when I was just a lad...
I don't know the name of the set, but I still have one of the people from it and he rules over all my other playmos.  :)
Since that first box I have been hooked and have been asking for playmobil always.
After I got my first castle (number 3667) I focused my attention towards the Knight theme and slowly built up a formidable army.  ;)
I never lost interest in Playmobil, but there were "dry spells" where I moved on to other things.
However, after stumbling upon PlaymoFriends, GardenWargamming, and collectobil, my intrest in playmobil was rekindled
and I really wanted to learn how to make these cool looking customs.
So after more research online I found a youtube video explaining it and quickly tested it out with my first custom!
Now I wish to show everyone else my customs, and help out where I can.

From your newest member,
Warrior Of Toys

Greetings Warrior Of Toys from the Great Pacific Northwest and welcome to our little corner of the net!  :wave: Looking forward to seeing picts of your customs, the concept of 'formidable' armies is being defined a lot more frequently around here! Be sure to look at Giorginetto's photos, very humbling  :-[ but it gives us something to aim for. :lol: 8}

Thank you everyone!
I have seen Gioriginetto's armies, and I am indeed humbled.
My sense of "formidable" is that I have nearly as many klickies as my friend...
(But better tactics, so I still win the battles! :P)
I have only 80-100 knights, not as many as others.
And that is before I split them into different factions!
Right now I have Crusaders and Muslims.
It has been a while since I counted them,
so I don't know if that 80-100 playmo includes my Romans or not... Probably.
I hope to post pictures soon!

BTW, Where would I post pictures of my collection? I am thinking the collectors corner, but maybe the customs gallery?

Hi Warrior of Toys

If you just want to show your collection the collectors topic is the  good areas. The customs area would be great for your first custom such as individual modified klickies, buildings & vehicles. It really is not that big of a deal it is just that when people want to reference or look for your images it is nice to have everyone organized. The moderators can move things around if they are obviously out of place.

If you need help posting pictures or images feel free to ask in the technical support area .
