It came! I've been cleaning and sorting for hours  8} I'm arranging them by sets/partial sets, so that I can decide what to keep, what to sell and what parts I need.

-The medical stuff has to go. It's reminding me how much I hate hospitals...
-I've decided to give the covered wagon to the gypsies to make it more European. I always thought the bassist with the earrings looks like one. He needs a wife and possibly a goat. Suggestions to make it more gypsy-esque welcome  :)
- I saw a thread here with gorgeous custom colored stagecoaches. I'm debating trying something like that, though I doubt I'll be able to make one quite so nice. At any rate, the stagecoach needs a few replacement parts before I do anything.

Great! ;) I hope that all of the stuff turns out to be how you want it to be.

As for suggestions as to how to make the wagon more gypsy-esque, I'd say just to fill it with colourful things, particularly cloth items or gold pieces. You could also try to put some rolled up tents and small pieces of wooden furniture in it (or strapped to it), since the gypsies would probably be carrying most or all of what they own on their wagon.

It's a hodge podge. Some great pieces, some broken ones, some unidentified ones, some surprises...

Well, I have TONS of fabric scraps, as I make half my own clothes  :) Furniture is not a bad idea.

ETA: I could make them bedrolls. Haven't done that since I was a kid.

Congratulations, that's a nice batch of stuff. I know what you mean about the hospital sets, I don't have any myself for similar reasons.

It was fun to go through. I'll have to do some part hunting though, to complete the things that really need completing.

I thought I could maybe handle a plastic hospital, but then when it actually came, I just couldn't. Bad memories.

I gues there is something sinister about smiling clickies performing operations.

A doctor clicky next to an operating table is bound to cut someone during play to save them, armed pirates, soldiers and cowboys might just be using weapons to disarm and threaten others to get them to surrender.  :) They could slaughter their enemies of course, but its an option.

The doctor can't really threaten a bad liver with his scalpel and tell it to be good or he will cutt it open.  ;)
