Title: Hello from another Playmo-fanatic
Post by: hoppatussa on November 30, 2005, 19:06:54
I recently found this board after checking out Just for Klicks.   I knew I had to join because (as far as I know) there isn't one I haven't joined yet.  I also missed some familiar faces and customs.

As for my history, I have been collecting Playmobil for more than half of my life.  I am mostly interested in collecting figures more than a certain theme.   I am constantly customizing figures because I can't have two the same in my collection.  The theme that made me a lost cause though was the Victorian theme.  It was the first time I recall wanting EVERYTHING in that theme. 

I tend to be fairly quiet, unless something really sparks my interest.  (I don't like to repeat a post someone else has written.)  I am anxiously waiting to see what will be released in 2006 though, so you will probably see me posting a LOT around that time. 

I am hoping in the next year (2006) I will be able to finally go to the Playmo-mecca in Germany.  If anyone has some must see places non-Playmo related in Germany as well, I would love to hear from you.

I guess that is me in a nutshell.  Good job on this board.  I like the layout and different forums.

Hello hoppatussa!    :wave:

It is really great to see you here at Playmofriends!  I hope you will enjoy your time here and I look forward to seeing your posts (quality over quantity, that's you!   ;) ;D)

You know me by my former name, Indianna, though I am a woman of mystery for now (until I can think of a new name, anyway!   ::) )

Hi Hoppatussa,
I hope you are able to Zirndorf, and other places in Germany.
Your sister has traveled, and you should too.

I will be envious of course, but happy for you.

I am glad to see you as a member.
I know you are quiet, but when you do speak, others listen.
I hope you find this a warm, friendly place.

Meg

Hi hoppatussa!  :wave: You may not remember me (I was once mommy2mandg) but I remember you! Hope you enjoy the new board!

I too am excited about the 2006 releases, especially the forestry stuff!

Welcome to PlaymoFriends!
It's lovely to see you here! :*)

I hope you will realise your dream and get to visit Germany in the near future. I haven't been there either - at least not since I started collecting Playmobil, that is. I would love to be able to go too. 8-)

Hello and Welcome Hoppatussa! I'm go glad you found us and decided to come and play! I've missed you and your wonderful customs and comments.

If you make it to Germany, remember to bring a extra suitcase for "souveniers". And if you see your sister or that scalliwag elf she used to hang with, give them a hello from Psyche (aka Diana formerly Gwyn).

I hope you enjoy it here as much as well do!

(And Anne, I like your new name...it may just stick! ;) )

Hi Hoppatussa!

When I first read "Southern Belle at Heart", my first thought was that you had moved down South. ;D Welcome to the board.

I wish I lived in the South.. it is far too cold in PA.  There is about 1/2 foot of snow that has fallen since this AM.  It would be lovely to live in Florida.  Good weather plus Funparks!

Hello. hoppatussa ...

Looks like you and I both became active here at Playmofriends about the same time. Even though I joined earlier, I couldn't post until I paid my dues ... which I finally did on the 29th of November ... ;)

I feel really guilty about being here in sunny and warm Fort Lauderdale, Florida while you're stuck up there in cold and snowy Pennsylvania ... :-[

The Palm Beach Gardens Funpark (actually it's more of a FunStore) is about an hour and a half drive from where I live. They have recently done some major renovations and it's a great place ro visit. When I was there last, they hadn't finished everything so I didn't take any pictures. Next time I go, I'll take my camera so everyone can see all the changes.

Happy that you're here, hoppatussa ...

All the best,
Richard

I can't wait to see pictures.  When I was there last, I definitely thought the WPB Funpark was definitely better than the Orlando Funpark, just because of the large displays.  My favorite was the Tribal scene.. I think it was the first one on the right when you first walk in the display area.  Make sure you bring your camera next time!

Welcome Hoppatussa from me as well...

It's not my ignorance, it's a lack of time...  :-\  ;)

Hope you are having the same great time here as I do...

greetings from the baltic sea...
