Bill this is exactly what I had in mind!!!

@ Giorginetto: Putting the ad at playmobill Hellas is also a brilliant idea...but I am reluctant as to how many real collectors trully visit ds there a lot. I might be wrong, and sure hope so that I am!

Not as much as you think, Giorginetto ;)! Remember how many parent/collectors are hiding behind the quote "it's for my children" until they find out there are many others who say like I have "my name is Bill Blackhurst, & I'm a Playmobil addict" & become free from their fear of isolation :love:! They may be dragging their children to Playmobil Hellas to fulfill their own addictions to which you will be giving them a refuge to pursue a fellowship with other closet collectors :lol: like ourselves! Consider it a possible public service :yup:!

It's my "opinion"..... that people other than the ones collecting, consider these items toys, & that they are for children not adults. This causes the adult collector to hide their obsession & keep them out of sight so they are not made to feel there is something wrong with their hobby.

I know the feeling...but hey! I would advise these people to go up and say what their hobby is! Like I do in toy stores: ''is is for a present sir?'' ''Nope, it is for me!!!!!!" ;D ;D ;D ;D

Very true! But in the past when I question adults about their Playmobil purchases at toy stores, they say they hunt deer, own a bass boat & enjoy fishing, like to ski, snow board, enjoy camping,...etc. I've never had a grown man admit to collecting Strawberry Shortcake memorabilia as a hobby, even though they just might ;)!

When I was in the UK I used to buy lots of Playmo sets ( still do  :lol: :lol:) and very often used to visit Toys R Us in Woking. Remember i used to fill trolleys with blue boxes and was pretty much proud of it... I think the previously mentioned comments are very valid however and thast easire said than done i think we ought to be proud of our hobby and collections which are harmless and very artistic  if you ask me  :)
