Post by: El Jinete on February 27, 2006, 12:44:47 AM: I like the samuri idea. That would be a fun theme with samuri warriors, ninjas, horsemen, and other troops with Japanese pill-lock carbines and matchlock muskets or swords and spears. Some of the accesories could be one of those Japanese style castles, complete with trap doors and secret passages, and loopholes for defensive fire. A small Shinto style shrine. Perhaps ships could be made, similar to a Chinese junk or Korean turtle ship in style.

I would also love to see an Egyptian theme... Well, even better, two Egyptian themes released in conjuction. One would be an Ancient Egyptian theme, something akin to the upcoming Roman line. The chariot could be modified to fit the Egyptain decoration scheme.

At the same time, another line could be launched along the lines of the Adventure Theme. It would be late Victorian period (late 1800's) arqueology, with various mummy cases and other ruins. Some of the figure could be British soldiers from the period with their desert tans and topis. Maybe a couple of vehicles could be early cars and trucks or even early airplanes or hot air balloons...

Post by: GaiusIulius on February 27, 2006, 11:36:25 AM: I voted for "French Revolution and Napoleonic wars", because they took the special with the Yankee out of their program which was my base for a lot of customs. But the Samurai age would be a great idea too cuz it is so different to what they have done up to now

Post by: Richard on March 25, 2006, 03:40:22 PM: The "late Victorian Period" which includes the American Civil War up to but not including the First World War is my favorite period.

I also really like the period between the First World War and the Second World War (the time of the Indiana Jones and Casablanca movies).

But, having said that, I really like ALL the periods ... ;)

However, when you look at the incredible figures that Ralf has created from Playmobil parts, it would seem that Zirndorf could quite easily produce most of what we want. So, let's hope that they listen to us! ... :)

Post by: Jimbo on April 08, 2006, 03:07:25 AM: Samurai for sure. The Junks or Turtle ships would be awsome! I made a Playmobil Sampan, radio controlled. It is kinda cool.

That does sound cool! Any chance for some pictures? (Or have I missed another thread?)

Post by: Jimbo on April 15, 2006, 12:33:26 AM: Ahoy, Captain Henry.

Here is an old picture of my sampan. I wanted to take a better picture of it, but this one might be o.k. If you look closely you can see one of the crew, kinda aft of the "cabin".

Best regards

Jimbo

Post by: cheng on April 15, 2006, 03:10:50 AM: samurai theme of course ;D
with those baggy pants and sleeves, Ralf can create another wave of 'specials' :D

think of all those armies from the Fukushima/Toyotomi/Kuroda/Hosokawa/Oda/Kugokyu/Ukita/shimazu etc clans :) if we are not broke from building Roman armies... speaking of Romans....not much military customising for me there...hope it wont be an anticlimax for me :P

and Jimbo...your junk is a piece of jewel ! do share some of your talents with us! (from what i kow, the term 'sampan' is for smaller boats, the type you row with and without sails)
