As I build dioramas for Kirkbean Exhibition I tend to buy most of my Playmobil to fit in with the dioramas I will be building next and because of lack of space, once the exhibition is over, a lot of my Playmo is put into storage for the next time I need it or duplicate items sold on. So, although I own it, strange as it seems, it often doesn't feel as though it is my collection, rather something that I collect to share.

However, I do sometimes buy things that I particularly like, rather than for use in the exhibition and these together with collecting Specials and Fi?ures are my special treat to myself.

Therefore as far as Fi?ures are concerned I like to collect one of everything and use any duplicates for parts.
I haven't got any series 5 yet and am missing a few of the series 4 males because my money has gone into the exhibition stuff recently, so I must now get on and look for the ones I am missing.
