Quite a collection for 11 months work!

The 4420 racing support vehicle looks interesting, it looks like it would make a good base for a conversion for one of our Fire specialists.

What an excellent concept of making on online page with pictures of all your sets!

I should do that too.  Maybe that would show my wife that we really don't have that much (although I am sure she would still say it's too much ... LOL).

I think it would be great for the kids to have a clear visual reference as well, to what goes in what sets.

Great acquisations d-fens, I didnt even know 4082 exsisted and what a beautiful set it is.

Congratz!!

It is a magnificent set, Gis.  Here's a review of it just to get your interest really going:

http://www.playmofriends.com/forum/index.php?topic=2610.0

I've since added a the 4089 Bobcat to my collection:

http://www.playmofriends.com/forum/index.php?topic=2615.0

plus extra figures from DS and the parts for an extra trailer for the truck in the 4082 set.

I've also made a custom jeep and trailer:

http://www.playmofriends.com/forum/index.php?topic=2664.0

and in the process of making a different style trailer for the 4x4 in the 4087 set:

http://playmodb.org/setpics/4087.jpg

which I am waiting for after buying one on eBay this week.

Plus I have the parts coming from DS so I can build another 4x4 from scratch.

The 4082 was a very dangerous set to buy!

the boat is with a inboard engine  and under the boat you can mound the blue under water engine
