Hello to Playmofriends!
« on: June 10, 2010, 20:55:43 »
Hi there,

I am a father of two children (one 3 yrs old and the other 4 months old). I have had some interest in toys but never in Playmobil. with my 3 yrs old son's birthday coming up, I started looking at various toys for his birthday present and ended up buying Playmobil toys for him (cargo ship, private jet, semi truck) The little did I know, I also got hooked on Playmobil!  :lol: I have been buying Playmobils from local yard sales and my collection quickly grew with some old Castle (3450) and dollhouse (5300). I have been saying to my wife these are for the children. ;D

I hope to learn cool ways of expanding steck castle with what little I have and also how to set fun story telling scenes I can play with my kids.

 :wave:

Welcome from the UK :wave:

You have two of the greatest Playmobil sets ever made; the 3450 and the 5300 :)

Welcome from North Yorkshire in the UK.   :wave:  I have no children and therefore no excuse for buying Playmobil, but I do (and usually my wife lets me).

A warm welcome from the Netherlands 123grams. Great to have more Steck lovers here.

I only had a 6 year gap before I started buying again, when the kids came it was just an excuse to buy more. My wife is luckily as invested in PM as I am :-)

Have a great time here!

Welcome from Scotland
After 8 years I think my husband has finally realised that it isn't really for the children  ;D

Welcome 123grams,

you'll certainly find a lot of Steck fans here, keep visiting those yard sales, there are bargains to be had when you compare to come prices being extorted asked on eBay.

cheers, Martin

Greetings 123grams,
Hope you are finding this site as interesting as I am.  I have to agree with Martin that yard sales are the best bet for deals.  Good luck hunting!
