I'm Cheng, not really new to Playmo-customising world... ;)
I customise almost every (old) war theme, lately concentrating on ancient East Asians :)
I try to stay historically accurate and also retain their playmo-factory mass-produced look
Playmofriends is a very active and well run forum and I'm happy to be able to speak here at last :D

Hello Cheng, welcome to playmofriends.
It seems to be that you are already quite famous with some of our members.
East asian playmo is rather under represented. Would love to see some of your work.

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone!
I'm really happy to join you all here, yes, finally ;)
too much to catch up on here..
I will try not to repeat/clone my posts in GardenWargaming here...
I've always been envious of your discussion threads on reviews and parts which we dont do too much if at all in GW :)
PM is hardly known here...there's only one small chain passively carrying them and they have not brought in any new ones for maybe 5 years already and I wouldn't be surprised if they actually lost the agency already. :P
So far I've not met any adult/kids here who can say 'I know what Playmobil is!' here and so it remains my closet hobby but one which I glady share with you all ;D

The master is finally here!

So, you're thinking of come over, cheng? We have a castle at Scarborough too! There's been some sort of fortification there from at least Roman times, a signal station, and maybe earlier. And I'm a direct descendant of one of the last, maybe the last, person to be responsible for the castle at times of hostilities.

reminds me of that line, "are you going to scarborough fair? parsely, sage...." :love:
and dear Gordon, I shall need your help to find something for my wife to do other than visiting castles and war relics :P
....btw does the last person responsible for a castle during hostilities leave it last too? (like a captain of a sinking ship) ..you're probably blessed with a lucky lineage ;D)
-
No, I'm afraid the castle isn't mine :lol:!
The site of Scarborough has been used for military purposes since at least Roman times when there was a signalling station there. During the English Civil War, it was held by the Royalists for King Charles I and was besieged by the Parliamentary army who reduced it to its present state. In the First World War it was used by the army and in the Second World War it was used by the RAF as part of their measures against air attacks on the UK. That's where my ancestor (my late father) comes in. He was one of the early members of the RAF's 80 Wing (the "Beambenders") and for some time was in charge of an area in the north east which included Scarborough castle. (I intend to get his war record to check the exact dates.) Of course, if I mention that I'm a direct descendant of one of the last people to be in charge of Scarborough castle in war time, few people think of the 1935-1945 war and assume it was the English Civil War of 1642-51! "Say, that man over there is a direct descendant of the English King Charles the First!"

Hi Cheng :wave:
Greetings from the beautiful baroque City of Ludwigsburg in southern Germany ;)
nice to have you here with us ;D
-
glad to see you here again, Arizzo 'old' friend! :)
yes indeed Gordon!
(though I started as a WWII military collector, my years of playmobiling-conditioning has shut off almost all connections/interest in WW1 or 2 :P )
