( told by someopne who cant bear the idea of breaking a klikcy apart even temporarily  and still feels bad for shooting and buring a hadful of old lyra klickies back in the 80s - shooting with a pellet gun this is ...) poor klikcies

As long as we're none of us laughing manically and deliberately creating horrible monsters or blowing figures up I think we're alright we all know what we want to achieve and if we can achieve it without damging a toy Playmobil or otherwise we should not feel to bad about it besides sometimes cutsomisation is the best way to learn how to repair or the only potin to give old broken toys life  .

Exept for the figures, some only changed haircuts for me to create variation.

I never was able to take them apart, and am rather hesitant to try it since I wouldnt want to damage any of my little friends, not even the old ones. Makes me feel a bit sad about some of you speaking of unwanted clickies though.  Poor fellows cant help it if geobra gives them an odd color shoes, or a weird model pants.
Might make clickies think twice about making a fasion statement.

I don't feel bad disassembling klickies because I know I'm going to make them whole again eventually.
However when I had to tie up Sam (my 2 foot pirate) to turn him into Gulliver, I felt really guilty and apologised to him and tried to explain that it was only for a few days   
I think he understood because he smiled at me

MY thoughts exactly when i get more troops for Emperor ISeroth, i am 100% certain he is smiling at me and saying thanks for building him a bigger army etc etc .

The soldiers of Krull might complain about there not being enough female clickies around though.   
Makes me wonder about the ratio between male and female clickies in krull. Krull women must feel very loved. 


And I am sure Gulliver was doing just fine, he had plenty of little friends around him to keep him company after all.

  I'm sure he didn't mind although it's hard to tell since they always smile,I put my 2 oldest Policemen in a sealed plastic bag this morning and got them out on my way to work the one on the motorbike didn't look to bothered, my oldest kilcky was doing his give me air I'm choking impression

I came across this topic while searching for something else and just had to revive it!

I'm glad you did, otherwise I'd never have noticed it  I am just on the cusp of turning from being a fantatical 'it must be kept in its original condition (and sometimes even mint in box lol)' to 'ooh! I wonder if I can paint this and make a medieval peasant?'  I finished my first paint job last week and just can't stop looking at my 'new' klicky!  The sad thing is, I'm now wondering how to shorten some roof pieces to finish a project I've started - saw them?  sand them?  shave them with a stanley knife?.... yep, think I'm on that slippery slope!
I don't think I could ever do it with any of my boxed sets, but with 'extras' from E-bay or DS, I might risk giving some more drastic customisations a go

It depends on how much you need to take off. For larger amounts a small fine toothed saw is what I would use. For small adjustments a rasp can work nicely.
