Title: our garage town is growing
Post by: Rasputin on August 06, 2012, 15:28:06
Well our little town located in our city house garage has been running out of room, sound familiar. I decided I needed to give the boys more room for setups so I decided to go "up" seeing as I can no longer go "out".

So here are some simple pictures


overview from inside

That last building has a cat infestation! :omg: :lol: (I'm kidding, Tahra, I love cats.)

It's looking really great, Ras! Your boys must be having so much fun doing this, it's every kid's dream. Question.... when the garage door is open, can it be seen from the street? If so, there must be a lot of fender benders in front of your house!

Yes I was wondering about that too  :lol:

Can you only use that garage space for playing in the summer or all the year round?
It looks huge  :D

Those are only the cats I could quickly find, I have many many more somewhere :-[ luckily I have just as many or more dogs to chase them out  :lol:

The kids prefer to play in the house and it is taken over by playmobil :cloud9:

Yes you can see everything from the street, but we are on a "bottom of the sack" street, aka "cul-de-sac". Not many cars, only 10 houses and the only kids are still under 4. All the boys friends who are now coming by constantly, we are the party house, know of our obsession. They usually just stare with open mouths.

I did not "need" them, but I wanted them  :lol: I think I got too many  :-[ I should paint them diffrent colors. I will be hanging them from the toy shop celling, its a great effect.

Its all year round. The space is much smaller than our barn but we now live in the city house so the barn is used less frequently :'( When I am done with the new farm 4 car garage I will set up a proper diorama. If I wanted to do a diorama with all our collection I would need a 30k sq.ft. warehouse  :eh?: some day

It looks like there was some kind of disaster in the bicycle shop! And the cars were sent outside so the Playmobil could take over. :lol:

Truly amazing, the boys must have a blast.  It is no wonder that you would be the most popular house on the block!  Love all the cats and dogs.  :love:

 :o Wow man sort of like organised chaos a Playmboil man could get buried under there nd never find their way out, poor woman trying to sleep surrounded by all those animals  ;D. Out of the corner of my eye I spy in the first photos a yellow 90's camper van like I had as a kid that was a really cool set.

Seeing as the garage town is so modern the kids started playing with left over westen sets in our backyard tent.

Looks like uncle sam is preaching to the parrots!  You know you have a lot of playmobil when you have it in a backyard tent. Lol

Must be some battle going on in that tent, it looks like a warzone.  ;)

I know, just look at those poor farm houses that were leveled. Its always the citizens that suffer in wars.

I will get a close up of uncle sam and what is going on as soon as the camera is charged  ;)

That looks like a scene from The Birds! I love that people are standing on the table to get away from the flying creatures. :lol:

So.... is this tent a permanent fixture in your back yard? Playing with western playmobil in a tent sounds like fun to me! The only thing more exciting to a kid than playmobil is a tent set up in the backyard. :lol:

Those are not "people" on the table, they are imposters :P

and yes the tent has been set up for many months and on hot days being in it under the tree it is the perfect escape.

those things were not easy to get into the windows. Everything was ballanced so with my shaky hands the kids had to take over, seeing as it was their idea.

Cats, dogs, birds... wait until Ras' army of clowns arrive to sort them all out!   ;D ;D ;D

It's a fantastic set up Ras.   :clap: What's the area with all the trees in the middle of the town? it looks very interesting...
