Yes, it definitely completes the building and makes it look very much like the original. Great work, George!
At that moment the ship suddenly stopped rocking and swaying, the engine pitch settled down to a gentle hum. 'Hey Ford.' said Zaphod, 'that sounds good. Have you worked out the controls on this boat?' 'No,' said Ford, 'I just stopped fiddling with them.' (With thanks to Douglas Adams)

Oh George, it's gorgeous!!  :love:

I saw it with my own eyes when I was 17 (on a school trip to Greece) and it was breathtaking - not just the temple in Corinthe but all the ancient sites we visited. It's lovely to see a Playmo version  :)

How I wish Playmobil would do an entire ancient Greek theme!

Although our professor of Greek history explained that those marble temples were actually painted in bright colours in those days. It would look quite different from what we're used to :)

Thank you very much for your nice comment Birdie. You are lucky you have seen it with your own eyes. I was in Corinth for two months when I went to the army. I was 19, but I didn't have the chance to visite the temple. We didn't have much free time.

About an ancient Greek theme by Playmobil. The Greek Gods was a good start and I belive we will see more things in the next years. Why not an entire theme! We are very close for something like that. I'm really too optimistic!!

Yes, the temples were painted and very beautiful! They were adorned with representations and statues in and outside the building! We admire them as they are today. Only if we could see them as they were at these days!! It would be great!!

We need more optimism, it's refreshing  :)

The OP cannot be praised highly enough. And I too have hopes for a Greek and other historical themes - the omens are auspicious!
