Title: Howdy from Germany!
Post by: Colonel Klicky on August 30, 2010, 22:01:13: Hello playmofriends!

My name is Jens-Markus, I live in Germany, I'm 40 years old and very pleased to be here among so many like-minded and playmo-collecting people from places all over the world.

1974 I got my first playmobil as a present of my grandmother: 2 construction workers. Since than I'm fascinated by this smiling little klickies, regardless of whether cowboy, knight, pirate or soldier. - Of course (or better: regrettably) since considering myself as to "grown up" to fiddle with "toys" my klickies had to withstand several years of exile parceled in boxes in the cellar... (http://server3.webkicks.de/confedhome/replacer/pfeif.gif)

But a couple of years ago I was reinfected by the playmo feaver. My main interest now belongs to the western and acw theme. So together with some friends I build and showed several dioramas the last years. Last one last week at the LuxPlaymoDays in Luxembourg, showing a playmo version of the confederate city of Charleston after the fall of Fort Sumter.

Looking forward to look around here a bit and meet & read you all.

Best regards
Colonel Klicky (http://server3.webkicks.de/confedhome/replacer/ck.gif)

But I lived through it, and began collecting again, in 2008! ;D

The wonderful ships are the work of a friend of mine from the german board. He really is a perfectionist and all his ships look much better, than any new one from geobra, just having left their blue box. ;)
