Once again. All the cool stuff is overseas and/or overpriced. 🥲

Unfortunately for me….all Playmobil is “cool”

And if Playmobil says I can’t have it, I want it more

There are some very rare unique internal Playmobil statues in glass cases that I’ve been after for a very long time.

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:

Another day of being an American collector of foreign brands. ;_; I was so heartbroken that I couldn't get Heidi, and now Asterix. I love the new pieces they brought!

The problem is not really the buying of sets only released in Europe- just ask and someone (me for example) will buy you any PM sets you want. The problem is the cost of US import/export charges which tend to dampen one's enthusiasm, as well as the affordability. For example, I have given up looking at things on US eBay because the shipping costs to UK are always eye-watering!

Korean exclusives might be easier to get hold of if we knew someone who lives there, or visits regularly.

Edit: Article 1 of the US constitution prohibits exports duties (I just read), so it must be high shipping costs which make US exports expensive.

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)
