Hello from Pa!
« on: February 27, 2008, 16:37:10 »
Hello all ,

My name is Andrew an im from a little town in Pennsylvania. Im a horsemem by trade , I also work part time at a bar 6 days a week.
Im pretty new to collecting playmobil an I don't have anything vintage yet haha
Right now all I have is a nanny goat an her two kids , a black dog an the herder that came with. I also purchased the hedgehog family set because I liked it haha =)
I have a few other random pieces an sets that are packed away , deer family , newer cow family ,and a woodland set.

My main interest in playmobil is collecting certain pieces that will make me happy haha
Im mainly interested in collecting the longhorn cattle , any of the goats an a few buildings.

Im an open book willing to answer any questions about myself an of course to talk about playmobil!!
=)

Hiya Andrew - it's nice to see you!

Sounds as if you're already into the Klicky - Farming  ;)

Hello Andrew and welcome,

I think the idea of collecting what makes you happy is an admirable one, klickys are what the Playmobil figures are called.  I am sure as you spend time here you will wonder how you managed to get along all this time without some of these sets!  Those old catalogue photos are killing me!!

I actually found this site trying to look for a specific piece that I got outbid on , on ebay haha
Figured I belong to a bunch of forums already , whats one more haha
Although I will say , im not super into the collecting , its just somthing that in my spare minutes before I head to sleep is kind of endearing to me.

If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:
