Thank you Socrates, it worked and i am on :wow:
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

thx Richard for some more pics from Vauban,

i think VAUBAN are one of the TOP 10 Customizer of the World !  ;D

Find another 2 nice Stecksystem Customz !

ENJOY !



The hut looks really good.

On the subject of flighty themes (in one year, gone the next).  Maybe this isn't such a bad idea.  If you get stuck with a theme you really don't like*, you can hold on for better luck next year.

* I fully anticipate a "Japanese theme" consisting entirely of ninjas, armed with a full arsenal of Okinawan farm equipment.  And maybe a few geishas (all armed too of course because everybody knows geishas were all secret assassins skilled in every form of martial art including Thai kickboxing,** the rage of the early 1990s)

I hopr there'll be Samurai in full armour; they'd be my favourites yet. I wonder if Playmobil sells in Japan? If not, surely this would get their interest, and might break open a new market once they realised how great and versative Playmobil is.

Hello, Timmy and Martin ...

On the subject of flighty themes (in one year, gone the next).  Maybe this isn't such a bad idea.  If you get stuck with a theme you really don't like*, you can hold on for better luck next year.

Good point! There have been a few themes that I wasn't sad to see go bye bye ... ;)

Timmy, you do indeed have a great sense of humor/humour ... :lol:

However, would love to see a st of "armed" geishas!

I hope there'll be Samurai in full armour; they'd be my favourites yet. I wonder if Playmobil sells in Japan? If not, surely this would get their interest, and might break open a new market once they realised how great and versative Playmobil is.

Martin, don't forget the Playmobil roller-coaster that was only marketed in Japan!

However, I, too, really want a Playmobil Samurai theme and if it also does well in Japan ... great!

All the best,
Richard
