Hello, Bonjour, Здравствулте, Hallo, Hola!
« on: February 10, 2009, 00:37:30 »
My name is Coriander, or Cori for short.  I am pretty new to Playmobil, and I have fallen in love!  I am still learning where my interests are... right now I want everything!  And I'm interested in customizing, and making displays.

I started with some Christmas sets, and then discovered Fairies.  Now that I'm learning more, I realized that my brother and I had a set or two as children.  I am hoping to find them in our boxed up toys that my parents saved.  (Oh, I'm 32.) 

I'm married, but don't have kids. I have a cute pembroke welsh corgi named Daisy though.  I live in Western, NY, in the US.  I'm also a musician, and a gamer.  I love games like Carcassonne, Ticket to Ride, and Alhambra.  I've been known to play some D&D as well.

Hello Coriander! Welcome to our little corner of the world from the Great Pacific Northwest. I am sure you will enjoy yourself here and it is always fun to meet someone who has newly come to Playmobil.

Welcome from the UK.  :wave: I hope you find some of your old Playmobil which must be quite early stuff.

I spent a few hours looking at ebay today, heh. 

I originally was interested in starting a train set, and when we got to the craft store, they also had Playmobil.  Then I learned there is a Playmobil train!   :love:

Thanks for the welcome, everyone!  I am so happy you all!

Wwelcome Cori!

Your enthousiasm is almost infectious. Almost; because we're all as enthousiastic as you are 0)

Welcome Cori,

great to have you here!

I often thought that Playmobil would be an ideal medium for D&D or other tabletop roleplaying, as you could customise your character to have any weapons/armour and overall look that you wanted. I wonder if people do that?

cheers,  Martin

Hi Cori! :*)

It's wonderful to hear from such an enthusiastic and happy Playmofan! :D

I hope you have an understanding partner. It sounds like your home is going to be filled with Playmobil toys. ;D

Have fun here at PlaymoFriends, and do come back and visit us often to tell us about your growing collection. 8-)

Howdy Cori :wave:
Welcome from sunny Arizona.
Glad to have you aboard.  I dabble in trains myself.

Best regards,
Jimbo
