In the end, we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.

You have a wealth of original ideas, cheng!  Keep them coming for us.   :wave:

Wow! This is very coooollll(ie)!!!
First and last hats can't be PM???? They look wonderful.
If they are in Beijing, those ducks better hide quickly because they eat anything that moves there. And the weather's bitter cold there, so maybe they better stay in KL and the tropics for now.
And are those custom eyes on the first and last guys? They look wonderful!
After two decades of male toys (esp. Lego and PM) in our house, it is time to build something for us women!

cheng: PM really needs to release some of your models as stock DS specials! Especially the Chinese hats, eyes, chests, .... These are some wonderful figures!
And they are very entertaining for sure....we need more laughs in the world, and it seems as if you are the man!
Please keep the iterations rolling....love seeing what you have come up with next!

....Chinese hats
......chests

If there's no main chinese theme planned...yes, a couple of them in DS would suffice, another xmas wish/dream/hope <*) <*) <*)

but maybe Geobra knows that warmongering-Cheng is just tinkering around waiting to buy loads of these innocent looking coolie hats to make Qing armies :cracker: :cracker: :cracker:

speaking of bare/naked chests....why are there naked torsos for dark-skinned and tan-skinned klickies but not light-skinned? (besides speedoDad's torso which cant be used anywhere else) is there some prejudice involved? (I feel like I'm asking a Heronimus-style question :lol: :lol: :lol:)

Cheng,

Beats me, too! Does not seem right to just have regular bare chests in darker skin colors.
If we keep screaming for more Chinese Klickies, maybe somebody somewhere sometime will hear our screams.....that is a lot of somes!

There are only about 3 billion or so Chinese and Indian Indians in the world, and we can't get a few more sets to represent those gigantic cultures? What if half a million of those folks would like to buy a Klickie that resembles them?

Maybe we have to put Chinese sets at the top of our PCC wishlists for the next decade? I am all for it, so count me in. My new Chinese daughter in law loves her new Ivy Ling, the first truly Asian doll produced by American Girl. Can't we make some PM sets representing her homeland? And how about the hundreds of millions living in and around Malaysia? Don't they need PM sets as well?

So please keep your innovative Asian customs coming....we all love them! :xholly: :xholly:
