Falcons: white / orange


Bought that superset again, and improvised a couple of swordsmen for the extra shields. The Orange knight's friend was made too.


Double Ax


Loved the yellow guy (special) except for the sword at the hip. Not handy at all. Anyways, since I kept a couple of them to pop, and figured those shields would go well with those tin knights.. there they went (again)..

The first horse guy is also an old custom (with a more recent shield and ax).. as is the last, the orange knight's friend :)


Unicorns


The top middle ones are custom, as is the female knight. We took the unicorn head thing from the horse that came with the first playmodragon, and used it for the waterfall horsy...


Ox


We put the polkadot knight & friends here... The female knight and the guy next to her are custom, as is the purple female warrior and her two companions and the green ones. Unfortunately, the purple barbarians were probably the first we stopped buying, in my moronic playmoaway years. Would love to get more of them. Purple is good.

The female knight looks great, but where is her visor? :lol:

There are several helmets that brought no visor... and we have no spares. Actually, I don't truly like them with visors...

It does look a bit on the incomplete side. I don't much like these big helmets.

I'd like to replace most of those huge ones for nicer ones... like the one the fat green guy has in the last pic..

Purple cross?!


These were originally archers and crossbowmen, but I persuaded the latter to take up the longsword. We made a knight for them.. the colors aren't that great, but they had all to be there, so...


Fantasy Portuguese


Master Cowabounga came up with him - the king and horse. I HAD to have them. Then we asked for the flag and shields, and we came up with the men for them.


Serpent (?)


From the wolf knights, these stayed on their own. Need more "bronze bracers", a black crossbow, and a red quiver - one of them is all open :(

Like those old Dragon Knights and the Unicorns your Blue Falcons also look veyr smart I like what you've done with them. The Green Lion Knights aslo work very well for me I'm sure you don't need me to tell you my feleing on the Lion Prince one of my favourites, you ever thought of trying him with a black cloak and belt and a shield with a blakc/metallic grey central bit I've tried one of mine with a black cloak but, not got roudn to customising him but, I think the black would pick up the black in his outfit and make him look more like an ordinary Knight or suggest a darker character  :)

You mean the prince special (4505)? I LOVE HIM. We wanted to keep the original close to the... well... original, being a special and all. And with the gold belt...

Might add to them, since we have a couple more torsos... I'm running out of medieval legs of more.... common.. colors.

Noticed afterwards the next lot of photos liking the archers they're good colour combination your Knight looks good all thing sconsidered the colours mean that he fits in well with his friend the other ones you've put up are also very nice those gold armour pieces do look quite effective would like the pick up that bronze duo pack at some point  :)

I know what you mean I'm the same would want to keep at least one as original was referring to the fact that you seem to have several spare guys  ;) I've got 2 myself I'm not generally one for getting repeats of figures unless I can avoid it but, I've got a idea for some charcters so I wouldn't mind getting one more so I can customise one or two and have one who's original
