First of all, sorry about my English. You will only hear some basic English from me :-[
Well, uhm, hello PlaymoFriends. Hello from Holland!
I’m a HUGE playmofan, and I’ve been looking at playmofriends for about a year now, so I decided to give it a try and become a real PlaymoFriend. I’ll start with some ‘history’:
I’ve been collecting playmobil ever since I was 7 years old, on that age I got my first pm set, the zoo (3240). It was love at first sight :lol:. It kept growing and growing. Panda’s, seals, cows, elephants everywhere 8}
As you might have noticed, I mainly collect the animal-sets. That includes the zoo, farm, safari, forest and somewhat citylife. Unlike most of you, I’m not really into old medival, victorian or western sets. I do have a big animal collection with all sorts of animals (of course, still not complete. More, more, MORE!).
You will see some pics on the ‘collector’s corner’, as soon as I figure out how...
I personly don’t know anyone who likes playmobil too, and I just wanted to meet some fellow-playmofans to talk about new sets, collections and other playmobil things
So, that’s it! All the best, greetings,
PlaymoZoo :wave:

Hello and :welcome: to Playmofriends from Greece, PlaymoZoo :wave:
True, not many of us are very interested in animals, but as time goes by we can't escape the fact that a complete playmobil set up and project is not complete without the loving playmobil animals :love: :love: :love:
We do have many members who collect mainly anomals and have set up some really nice dioramas of them, like bonniebeth! I am sure you will find many people here who will be glad to share ideas and experiences on the animals!!!
Hope you enjoy the forum :)

Welcome from Portugal!
Looking forward to see pics! Love the playmoanimals too, and try to have at least one of each ;)
(of course, still not complete. More, more, MORE!).
I think we can all understand that... :-[
(and your english is fine :) )

Hello and welcome from Buenos Aires, Argentina!
Your english is great!!! don't worry about it!
Another animal fan and "specialist" is Tiermann (Tim). You can check out his website here http://www.animobil.info
Nice to have you with us and we hope to see some pics of your collection soon!
Gaston. :wave:

:wave: Lovely to meet you! Warm greetings from Pennsylvania, USA. You will meet all kinds of animal lovers here. I love all the farm animals myself and of course the cats and dogs. ;D

Hi PlaymoZoo, welcome from Antwerp, Belgium :)
I recently started collecting the zoo theme too and I look forward to seeing your collection!
If you haven't seen Tiermann's website yet, you'll be amazed :lol:
Do you collect the dinosaurs too?
Among my family and friends, there's nobody either who really 'understands' my ungoing love of Playmobil, but as you can see, there's lots of us out there 8-)
And about the other themes: never say never. The diorama's, customs and stories you can see here can get you interested in just about any playmobil theme out there ;D

Hello and welcome from a fellow Dutchman! Good to see some more dutch playmofans on this forum. Curious about your collection!
:wave:

Thank you all for the warm welcome!
Some pictures of my animal collection are on the collectors corner, after a few tries.
And Birdie, unfortunately, I don't have any dino's, but I always have to lock up my wallet when I see a nice dino set :lol: the same with dragons...
Greetings,
PlaymoZoo

Hello and a very warm :welcome: from another zoo lover in Louisiana, USA!!! I'm so happy to see another animal collector on here, can't wait to see your collection. You can see my zoo in the buildings and dioramas section. :)

Welcome from Oregon!
Always great to see another animal collector. There are a lot of animals to collect, and they keep making more.

Welcome from the UK!
Damo :)

Another welcome from the Netherlands. :)
While I do like the animals, (especially the chimps!) theres just not much space for me to get much of them in the medieval and pirate theme. Some pigs, chickens and cows could be handy for this though, still dont have any of those.
-
Ahoy! I will also tell you that your English is quite fine, so don't worry about that!
I look forward to seeing your collection, and I really like your elephant avatar picture! :)

Hi, and welcome from Arizona. :wave:

And another welcome from the UK :) I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun sharing your playmoholism here - and I have to admit, one of my favourite playmobil pieces is a Bison I picked up in Zirndorf - he is just so solid and... satisfying, somehow :D
Have fun and I'll go and have a look at collector's corner to see your pics now!

I know what you mean, I'd like to add the whale to my collection. I think it has the same sort of feeling :lol:

If you're going for solid... the old rhino and croc are a MUST :) :love:

hello and welcome to the group, you seem to have settled in quite nicely. We have a great animal collection as well and are always looking for more. It is not our focus theme even though we have so many. Our focus is anything that says playmobil :lol:
-
Hello and welcome.
I wish you a lot of fun here.
George.

Hello and warm welcome to you :welcome: I like animals although I will admit they're not one of my specialities or specific interests, well actually it's all fiarly general so far, will look forward to seeing some of your photos :) :wave:

Welcome from Southern California! :wave:

Welcome from another Dutchman! Glad to hear you like it here. The Playmobil animals are great to collect, it's not my specialty but when I could get my hands on a gorilla or tiger I bought it. Some of them pop up in my Playmobil comic; 'The Story of Randolph' you can find in the story telling area.. if you like that, make sure you start with part one ;-)
