Funny thing was, in the toys shop, which is actually a big chain store, I was standing in front of the playmobil boxes, I was holding my boxes the one on top of the other, and was having a final look when a kid and his parents arrived... the following conversation is very interesting:

''Remember you can get only one, from these ones'' said the father while pointing at the latest bronze wolf knights.
''I want the new ones'' said the kid
''These all are new ones'' replied dad while showing the wolf knights again. At that point I started smiling and looking at the kid, it reminded how my parents were telling me 'you can get this one, you can't get the other one'
''No this is the new one'' said the kid while picking up the dragon rock which is priced at 14,99 euros.
''Kid's right'' I decide to tell the parents who are a bit puzzled looking at a guy with a beard and a batman cap holding five boxes of playmobil  :lol:
''You seem to have a good knowledge'' says the mother, ''How big a collection do you have?'' ''Enough for this young gentleman of yours to go wild'' I told them  :lol:
''Seriously though, he picked a good set, and at a reasonable price. Perhaps you can allow him to have it, it will give him better playing options than the single klicky boxes'' I said and took off!

I don't know what happened in the end but I do hope that kid got the dragon rock.

In the end, we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.

Thanks Bonnie! Somewhere inside me I felt I needed to say that, to avoid any dissapointment on behalf of the kid!
I can recall what happened when I wanted to get the Thundertank, the Thundercats vehicle. My mother did not want to get it for me as it was too expensive. So she persuaded me to get a few toy soldiers... As we were getting ready to walk to the till, another kid came in the toy shop with his mum, grabbed a Thundertank, payed and took off... I was furious but still got the soldiers but once I arrived in the UK for my studies, a Thundertank was the first item to look for in ebay....

your valiant work finished. :lol:
