Title: Hello, from California
Post by: twconstantine on April 28, 2011, 16:01:12: Hi. I'm new to the site and relatively new to Playmobil. I have a recollection of Playmobil as a child, but now that I have two little girls who are very much into Playmobil I have become a big fan. So, greetings. I hope to find a lot of really neat things in here.

Take Care

Tracy

I have friends in Sacramento, but they usually come here to visit. This is great to have more northern California members. You will really enjoy this forum, but be prepared, it is hard on the wallet. Some of the collections are absolutely incredible, and the customizations are so much fun to see.

Post by: Rasputin on May 06, 2011, 19:21:43: well seeing as we keep getting Californian's on this forum it may be time soon to put a convention together, wishful thinking :**: We could have it in world famous San Fransisco :confetti:

Ditto. ;D
Title: Re: Hello, from California
Post by: bonniebeth on May 06, 2011, 20:04:56: We would need lots of time to plan for it, though.
Title: Re: Hello, from California
Post by: Rasputin on May 06, 2011, 20:09:06: Well I could fill a ~~small~~ medium hall with just my our collection :P
Title: Re: Hello, from California
Post by: bonniebeth on May 06, 2011, 20:12:26: We like road trips, and hate flying, so if we came by ~~car~~ van, we could bring playmobil...
Title: Re: Hello, from California
Post by: tonguello on May 06, 2011, 20:20:24: I might go to usa next year but I will not be able to take my collection. I could contribute somehow else...
The plan it is still too green though... I might go east too... I mean Europe :lol: I must decided... Im torn! :-\

Playmo seems to call us back to our childhood fun times, especially if our children find our stash. LOL
Title: Re: Hello, from California
Post by: gisa on May 20, 2011, 02:23:42: has there ever been a playmobil convention....in the usa? or other countries?
Title: Re: Hello, from California
Post by: bonniebeth on May 20, 2011, 03:40:16: Not in the US that I know of. But there have been some great exhibitions in european countries! If you search through the community events board, you will find discussions and pics from some of these, I believe.

It would need to be SUPER big for me! :-\
Title: Re: Hello, from California
Post by: bonniebeth on May 20, 2011, 17:20:13: If something happens on the east coast, I'll be a lot more likely to go to that, than all the way to california. I can contribute a diorama if it's closer, because I can drive and bring my playmobil with me.
Title: Re: Hello, from California
Post by: Bill Blackhurst on May 20, 2011, 19:08:42: It will also depend on costs of fuel, location, etc., with prices of fuel predicted to go to $5.00 & above here, flights & travel will be more difficult to arrange.
Title: Re: Hello, from California
Post by: bonniebeth on May 20, 2011, 19:10:11: We could carpool, but we'd have to rent a trailer for the playmobil! :lol:
