The Castle of Power pt1

Post by Dark Horse »

All in all it took me about three months to complete this half. It's made from fibreglass, wood and brass. It is made especially as a toy and is super durable. I kicked a football at it full blast from ten feet away to make sure it was strong enough. It features - working Jawbridge, ledge, He-Ro's grave, King Grayskull monument, "A frame" weapons rack, 3D dungeon grate, working prison cell, orb chamber with custom orb and stand, removable flag, removable canvas tapestries, hidden sword chamber with articulated hand, real wood floorboards, canvas trapdoor mat, throne with gems, interior window ledge, removable wall shield, ladder, and more.

Thanks fellas. I offered to bring this and other customs to RORC, but Treeman said he didn't have any floorspace left.

...and I guess he didn't want this to belittle Neitlich's mini castle ;)

Brilliant!! Always had a soft spot for He Man even though I only had 2 figures as a child.

Yay! The throne even has the red cloth from "King of Castle Grayskull"!

That's just ridiculous! I hope you're proud of yourself!!

I almost hate to say it at this stage, but I saw a can of luminous spray paint in Wilkos the other day, dying to find an excuse to try it!
