TEN YEARS
« on: April 01, 2008, 04:50:07 »


TEN YEARS ...

On the 13th of April, ten years ago, Garden Wargaming became a Playmobil website.

To celebrate our first ten years on the web, we will feature a different Ralf Gemein theme for each of the remaining nine months of 2008!

Playmobil artist, Ralf Gemein, has created more than 200 custom Playmobil sets. Ralf's sets use only Playmobil parts, so they can be duplicated by anyone who can take a Klicky apart!

Around the time of the turn of the previous century, when the British Empire was at its greatest, there were magnificent Durbars and Jubilees. The first theme pays tribute to this golden era. Click HERE to join us in the beginning of our ten year celebration ...

All the best,
Richard and the entire GW staff

That is so cool to see some of Ralf's creations neatly grouped together on one page! :love:

It makes me realise just how prolific he has been - and this is only one of the historical periods he has covered.

Congratulations on reaching this wonderful milestone, Richard. :)

GW was one of the first sites I browsed when I started to become interested in customising and wanted tips on figure disassembly. I remember being rather in awe of everything I discovered on those pages and it inspired me to have a go myself.  8-)

Hello, Playmofriends ...  :wave:

And, thank you Andi and Sylvia for your generous compliments ...  :wave: :wave:

It's ten years today (13 April 1998 to 13 April 2008)! We now begin our year long celebration.

As many of you may have already noticed, Playmobil artist Ralf Gemein has created his Rorke's Drift theme especially for our Tenth Anniversary! Thank  you, Ralf!

Each month we will be posting a complete collection of one (or two) of Ralf's themes at Garden Wargaming. (The theme for mid-April 2008 is already up today)

There may even be a few surprises ... ;)

Thanks to everyone for making Garden Wargaming a huge success during the past Ten Years!

BTW ... The Garden Wargaming website has had more than 100,000 visitors from all over the world.

And, a BIG thanks to Yoyei and Playclicks for joining with us to bring you this bilingual Forum!

And, also a very BIG thank you to Sylvia and Playmofriends for all the help in moderating this Forum and registering new members!

Thanks again, my friends, and all the best,
Richard and the entire GW staff

The Theme for May 2008

NAPOLEON'S EGYPT

Napoleon was only 29 years old when he led his French army into Egypt.

Please join us HERE to see 31 imaginary sets of Playmobil figures from this interesting period of history.
