Title: Best Present EVER!
Post by: WarriorOfToys on January 07, 2011, 14:36:36
Ok, so my mom is driving my sister home from school or somewhere,
And they stop at a store for some things...
Out of the corner of her eye, my mom spots something on sale she thinks I might like. ;)
Weeeelllll it was supposed to be for everyone, but I have the greatest need for it! :lol:

Ok, Here it is:

That's right! It is a cardboard structure kit,
made to be the Great Wall of China. :lol:
As soon as it was built, my Playmo claimed what was rightfully theirs... >:D

I am really using it as a wall that my Samurai can fight over...
Some castle wall in Japan or something... Instead of the Great Wall of China. ::)
I hope you guys like it...
Cheng I think in particular you will. ;D

HI

Nice wall and it seems it is a great scale for the klickies . Compared to the door it looks rather long

Yes, the doors are a little small...
But since there are no platforms actually inside the tower I don't use them anyway.

I am going to paint it eventually, but I just really wanted to set it up. ;D
I will also add styrofoam rocks to the from of it,
to match the rocks drawn on the walls. :)

Hi

In my mid 30's my mum was still buying me Playmobil from thrift shops. It was quite rare to find them but it just a matter of training her and giving her rewards for doing it  :*) Now I am working on the in-laws  :lol:

...or husbands....mine thinks I'm off my rocker (I'm pretty sure the rest of the family thinks so too) for having so many MLP's, dragons, vintage Fisher Price, and well, the PM's are "for the kids", so I'm safe with that for a while....until they out grow them and then my secret will be exposed! LOL!
