Nice haul!

I too have been busy today, spurred on by Tim's info about TRU having a 25% off sale I spent $260 on various sets, several of which I wouldn't have got at full price but am happy with at 25% off, including the 3647 camper van and a seaplane. I added a couple more 4246 Treasure Tombs (useful as houses) and a 4243 Pharoah's Temple, and another 5913 Dragon Tower.


I'm now home again awaiting a UPS delivery direct from Playmobil US - it was out on the truck at 5:20am today but from previous experience won't be here until about 4pm.

That's quite a good haul, Giorginetto.

I'm no longer feeling worried about the 46 purchases I have made on EBay in the last 60 days (I think it's a total of 88 EBay purchases since September) and the order I put into Playmobil before Christmas.  Nor am I worried about the size of the parts order I am about to submit to Playmobil for their consideration.

I love this forum  :love:


NB I got the Koala Game from the UK Playmobil Direct in December. It's up in the loft at the moment with the rest of my secret stash (yes, that's why I've called myself Bad Mum!  ;))

Place was quite empty!!! I actually came close to buy all the new castles and mediaval sets, they do look awesome i must say but thats a purchase for much much later , i really want to conclude my mediaval and steck purchases ( i am waiting for  a massive steck order from Playmobil Uk ) and focus a bit on the so so sooooooooo neglected Western sets ( i ahve bought any since 1998 or so ) and start buying all the western old houses, school, train station etc etc so many sets there and the union/ confederate armies are very appealing. Oh and i want to buy some piratas and at least 300 redcoats .. god i need to win the lottery .... :-\ :-\ :-\ :-\ :-\

Always open them and set them up.,I have quite a lot unoped mediaval sets and especially klickies, lots of egyptian sets and romans ( see my previous thead on the egyptians massive purchase a coupleof months ago) and a few very old western sets  ( train wagons, water mill, forts etc ) , 2 pirate cannon galleons , the only reason i havent opened them is that i havent had a chance to set them up. No that i have space i keep all the boxes of everything i buy ...
