The three pirate sisters!

sisterpiratesSince the Lowrys are in town, I ran out to Terra Toys to make customized female pirates for Ethan and Kelly’s three daughters. You rarely see them in toy form, even Playmobil is guilty of focusing the girl lines toward shopping, ponies and dollhouses. Puh-leeze, girls love the same genres as the boys.

So I bought various sets to modify them all and watched various YouTube videos on how to pull the “fixed” figures apart. The only technique I got to work was a standard screwdriver to pop the hip area to remove the legs from the torso. Removing the head required needle-nosed pliers and I grabbed on the back of their heads since the tool would make slight impressions on the plastic. Thankfully, the figures have wigs to hide their newfound “scars.” A little change up with the colors and accessories, voila, three female pirates, one for each daughter. They can make up a story about how they banded to together to give Blackbeard, Captain Kidd, Captain Morgan and Long John Silver a run for the money.
