I would like to see a Playmobil newsstand.

I would like to see a Playmobil  newsstand, with your typical newspapers, magazines, snacks and  soft drinks being sold.
It doesn’t matter how big or small your Playmobil collection is, it’s what you do with it that matters.

That would be great for a station platform! It would be good if it had one of those posters on a stand (with criss-cross wires making diamond-shapes holding it in place)  with the latest headline, "Man bites dog" or "Playmobil ship makes it to Pitcairn Island" or "Stop reading this or you will miss your train".
At that moment the ship suddenly stopped rocking and swaying, the engine pitch settled down to a gentle hum. 'Hey Ford.' said Zaphod, 'that sounds good. Have you worked out the controls on this boat?' 'No,' said Ford, 'I just stopped fiddling with them.' (With thanks to Douglas Adams)

I totally agree with you on that the newsstand having posters on a stand (with criss-cross wires making diamond-shapes holding it in place)  with the latest headline. I totally forgot that most newsstands have them still.

Thank you, tahra.  Both the newspapers and postcards (on the far left) are dolls' house accessories, 1:24 I think.
