Classic Steck cathedral, seen on ebay
« on: February 25, 2012, 17:44:32 »
Found this by accident; it's a simple idea but really sweet! All vintage parts too, or 99%.

http://www.ebay.de/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150764594263

Now I'm wondering if I have enough Steck to make this.

Pretty building yes :)  Though... it would have to change "job" on playkingdoms!

I know I don't have enough varandas (is that the word)...

(the price is not so pretty though... :P )

 :o :o :o

I guess the price is mostly reflecting the seller's work on the steck design... Easily to reproduce the design if you have the parts  ;D

Well spotted, Heather!!!

Maybe balconies rather than verandahs?

Yes that's a great design. The balconies and the double arch wall, with the end hip roof piece are all the hard to get pieces. Hopefully they will be showing up in DS the next few years.

Oh, no idea - just wandering. Looking for better box-pictures. I'm doing a mini-PROCESS of my own today; it's sleety and not full of the usual activities, so I dug out some crates. I found some fixed-wrists guys and added them - now to find out what else they're in. Question of the day about most early sets: is that klicky's hair black or brown? "Farben unverbindlich" doesn't help, either!

Hair colors could be pretty random, as our blonde gay cav attests...

Or our blonde indian chief.
