You did everything needed at this time Elaine. Telling me which knight you want to use. I'll be contacting you at some point for more details :-) But for now you've done your part, doesn't junior want to join?

Lets see who we currently have:

 1) Gis - Tower Knight
 2) Gis - Fleur de Lys Knight
 3) flatcat - Swan Knight
 4) WarriorOfToys - Black Lion Knight
 5) Wolf Knight - Double Bladed Axe Knight (blue)
 6) Martin Milner - Snake Knight
 7) Tiermann - Yellow/Blue Quartered Knight
 8) grangel - Yellow Dragon Knight
 9) Giorginetto - Nuremburg Knight
10) skypurr - Royal Knight (Really finding it hard to describe this one)

kaethe's message leaves me slightly unsure if she want to particpate or not but I will keep the Dragonland Knight reserved for her for know.

And yes as the creator of this I get to have two  :P :P :P

Looking good sofar :-)

Thank you so much for this Martin!!! Awesome work!! Is it ok for me to use these pictures in any future posts?

I must admit that I sometimes forget the old/old ones so I unfortunately don't have the BLACK/red/white pleated one either :(

I am also unsure if kaethe actually confirmed, I hope so :-)

I'll start a new thread this weekend, thanks for helping me!!!

Sure, your work has prompted me to do some sorting which I have been putting off!

The photos came out a bit darker than I hoped, but they work for illustration purposes. Not all the knights are necessarily dressed in the right armor, but I was concentrating on getting the caparions and shields matched up, with a banner if I have one and matching body heraldry is it exists.

It's a shame that Playmobil didn't give the Easter Egg Knight a proper shield, as he doesn't have any specific emblem.  ::)

HEHE the sorting problem...we are facing much the same currently!!

Yeah, Caparison, Shield, Banner are the main things for me at this point. How the knights look I would like to the person picking them.

I saw someone use this shield for the Easter Egg knight:



From this Compact Set

I think that is a decent looking shield for him!

Dark grey legs with Black boots( normal for the knight figure on the horse (3669) .The arms are dark grey also with dark grey palms.It is ok if you use the normal knight figure from 3669 on the horse like the photo

Gis - how are you going to run the tourney? Brackets with dice rolls setting the results of each. 2 out of 3 rolls?

I just did a hunt and search and come up with a total of 31 caparisons. Some like the first red and yellow can be used with multiple shield/heraldry designs as well.
And then there is the barding - two piece on older horses, one piece on newer style, in assorted colors. So there should be plenty available for this and future events. The limits will be what's on hand for the host.
I hope to post a standardized list of all of the caparison late this evening. That way they can be referred to by number/name for clarity.
If you could post a full list of what you have available Gis it would be helpful to people trying to pick a champion.
