You got that right!

Thought I'd make a start and download some instructions, but although it shows as the set numbers I type in being available and gives me a list of page numbers, there are no pictures or text.
I tried it with a few sets - old and new but it's like that for whichever set I try.
Is it the same for anyone else or just for the UK - or just me?

Do you mean that the listing for the set doesn't appear at all? When I type in a set number, it shows a little preview page of the instructions, and if you click on that it brings them up in the browser, and if you click the "download" button you can open or download a PDF copy of it. It works for me on the United Kingdom site.

The country shouldn't make a difference: it's the same page, in a frame, with different-language text, that's all. Elaine, try changing browsers: the lengths your browser has to go to, to get these downloads, are sometimes just a bit much for it!

The preview page was blank other than a list of page numbers and when I clicked on those nothing happened.
However I've just tried it on my laptop that has Internet Explorer and it's fine, so maybe the problem is with Firefox.
But I've downloaded instructions on my pc with Firefox before with no problems.
Maybe it was just a bad time!

I just wanted to comment on your ongoing good work, sbblabotw. I called Playmobil in an attempt to discover the part number for the white bridal cape of set 5509, and they actually referred me to your site! But they told me to look on playmobb.org instead of playmodb.org!

Your pouncing on new instructions just shows your dedication to the project. Well done!

It confounds me that the company itself would be using it - they should have every part number every made, why do they need me?

The Riding Stables are getting taken up: only 5221, 5225, and 5226 remain... get your bids in, folks - and always check a set before starting, just in case the work's already done. Lots left at this stage, though!

I guess it shows how awesome the database is.

I have also been referred to your site by the company, a few years ago before I knew anything about playmofriends. In fact, I think I found out about playmodb through an email response from them, can't quite recall.
