First buy for 2010 ( ok after some steck toasts i bought ) a boxed 3445  :love: :love: :love:. I am building my mediaval castle and always wanted this . i was going to get just the sign and the bell and the yellow wind arrow at first as i have plenty of everything else but decided to buy the  whole set. Pictures of my mediaval set will follow hopefully in a couple of weeks . i am still building the kings quarters ( see pic )



and a shape of how its all building up -  very slowly  :-\ 





I am thinking of creating some access on the back at all levels otherwise it will be kinda difficult to use these rooms and fil them with stuff and klickies etc etc ...  :) :) :). Apologies for the bad quality of pictures  taken by phone etc etc  :-[ :-[

Hi Giorginetto

I love this set for that bell tower. The sign is also nice but for some reason that bell is such a great addition to a castle. To be able to pull the bell from the ground floor is a great design. I only wish I had a lot more of them for a stecks church. It is a hard piece to understand if you do not have one and you really can not see it in the box picture so it took me a long time to even know it existed. I ended up with one in a miscellaneous lot and had no idea what I had. It took me over a week to realize it fit inside a square stecks tower.

Great find and thanks for the pictures of your progress

If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

Looks like your castle is going to be a really great one!

Now thats something i didnt know Rasputin. Actually i havent even noticed this bell can be pulled from ground floor .  I am looking at the 1977 range of mediaval house inc the beautiful 4977 House and I guess it must have been something back then to have all these houses... i bought the Baker's house back in 1983/84 and i remember the excitement ,  ;D

The Kings quarter's will have to be changed completely . will creat rooms and have open walls at the back to be able to put klickies etc etc , Roof i reckon will stay as it is  and i will not use the open roof parts, i wish i had more time for all this , stealing a few hours  here and there and in a few weeks all my playmobil wil go to a storage area in long and tall shelves and plastic boxes etc etc  plus a few big tables with green  ( like the billiard tables) cloth on them ... i really hope to finish the kings quarters today and proceed to the  rest of the fortifications etc etc  ;D
