Playmobil, I was ordering some spare parts for my kids castle and I purchased an extra set of doors. Well worth it. There are all kind of Playmobil spare parts for sale.
You have to call 1 800 752 9662 and press option 1. You need to have the parts number handy. All the parts were under 10 shipped.

I have that actual castle (not complete and slightly broken). I think it was called the Falcon castle. It is pretty nifty, but slightly underscale for Joes. Pretty cool still. Thanks for the tip on the spare parts, I need to pick up a few that were lost along the way!

That is top-notch! Way to go!! How did you make the brick lines? Is that just foam board?

Yes, it is foam board from Home Depot ($5.49). It was spray painted with primer gray. I watched a video online from another action figure fan on how to make dios and took his advice for working with foam board. The brick lines were done with a ruler, a pencil and a exacto knife. The indentions on the brick are from an actual rock from my yard that I randomly pressed into the foam. The flooring is a 12x24 piece of wood from Jo Ann fabrics. Also around 5 dollars. It was a real cheap project money wise. So much so that I would not hesitate to start again to see what I could do differently.

you can also ball up a piece of aluminum foil and press it into the foam if you dont find a rock to your liking
