Seeing it brings back so many memories. I love that company, they helped fuel my imagination for many, many years.Carl V.

We never had the aeroplane, but we had the garage...<BR/><BR/>We also had a Shuffly Castle, with a turning turret that allowed you to drop unsuspecting shuffly dolls into the dungeon.

Then use a high quality paint for vinyl. Krylon makes one called "Plastic Fusion".<BR/>...don't get me started on paint.

I've had this one so long I'm very hesitant to change it. Still, I love the idea of a poppet house.

I dream of Poppet playsets/toys for kids. one day....maybe<BR/>I too, as a kid, used to lie on my back and imagine walking around on the ceilings, stepping over door frames. Who am I kidding? I still do that.lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07410230007560550179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9604161.post-83049960433617842482008-11-20T07:18:00.000-08:002008-11-20T07:18:00.000-08:00i love those old fisher price toys!

There is something about upside down architecture that draws me to it i guess. <BR/><BR/>For example, i love that old movie the Poseidon Adventure, where they try to find their way through the upside down boat. How stairs look upside down, how your perceptions change as you try to identify things that you would recognize instantly if they were right-side up.<BR/><BR/>i must ponder that some more, see if i can put it into sculpture....ravynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08232186304056487987noreply@blogger.com
