Well it's nice to see someone else is having a playmo related crisis, too! :lol:

To be fair though, I've nearly sorted mine, and I will post pics when im done :)

Yeah, buying containers can seriously cut into the playmo budget! They're so expensive.  :-\

Tell me about it ::) They want like £8 for a box here. It pains me having to spend money like that on storage, when I could be spending it on Playmobil!

Damo :)

Wolf, if I understood correctly, you customize your klickies, right? But looking at the pic above, do you use those pliers to dismantle them? Just pull the head out with the pliers?

So far I've been able to dismantle my klickies with the rubber band method (and even once using the "hans on" method, but never was able to replicate the feat). The rubber band works perfectly if there's no neck/sholder part, but with the knight klickies and their armor it's always harder. If I could use pliers I think it would be soooo much simpler.
Cheers!

When you try the hans-on method, do you place the cardboard between the torso and legs? It gives you better leverage. That's the only method I ever use.

I used the cardboard, but so far I only managed one klicky apart doing it that way  :-\.
On the video it looks so easy, but I only managed it once.

Well, I do find some too tough to break, but Chris can always break the ones I can't. It's the kids I can't break.

So you really have to slam 'em down  :0?
My right palm is bruised from trying to take apart a knight earlier tonight. I gave up and after a few tries with the rubber band I finally was able to dismantle the darn knight.

Still, pliers sound so much easier... ::)
