Title: PLAYMOBIL x Van Gogh Museum
Post by: JLMatterer on October 11, 2021, 15:53:08

There are 2 new Van Gogh figures, available world-wide from the Van Gogh Museum. I ordered 2 of each, a little pricey but easier than looking for a co-op purchase.

Thanks Kim, saw them pop up on Instagram yesterday and wondered about it. They look nice. One of the hats looks new?

Thanks for the heads up. These are lovely. A bunch of furniture in new colours too.

I might as well save on the postage and just go to Amsterdam though  :lol: (Covid permitting)

Beautiful sets, I like the one with the furniture the most! I'll be in the Netherlands in November, might pay a visit to Amsterdam as well, I still need the Van Gogh from the Rijksmuseum as well!

Thanks for the heads-up, Jim! These versions of Van Gogh look somewhat less polished than the Rijksmuseum one, but the sets are beautiful nonetheless – including the furniture was a nice touch. A pity shipping is so expensive – even then, they are still worth it.

If you start an account with the museum to order these, you'll get an email with a code for a €10 discount for an order over €50. Unfortunately, I didn't discover this until after I made my order, which was for €51.  ??? My code is good until Oct 31, which means my mind is creating the possibility of ordering again....  :hmm:

Yeah, me too.  :loco: I ordered yesterday, & today's email says I'll get it on Mon 18th.

BTW, I tried to make an order on Sunday (Oct 10) & was told they were already out of stock. On Monday they were available again.

LOL I edited my apology. "Sorry, Ras - you get the discount when you subscribe to the newsletter, not by starting an account." I'm glad to share the info.
