Hello from sunny Florida!
« on: March 01, 2009, 18:46:14 »
Hi...my name is Nicole...and I'm a Playmo addict... :D

Seriously though, I'm a stay at home (mostly) mom of two girls who also love PM.  I'm originally from Erlangen, Germany (about 45 minutes from Zirndorf!!) and loved Playmo as a child.  My love was rekindled about 7 or 8 years ago when I found the complete Viking Longboat at a consignment shop for $5.  That started the ball rolling and now my girls (ages 10 and 4) have Playmo in quantities that I could only have dreamed of when I was a child!  It really helps to have parents don't want to grow up! lol

Hope to spend lots of time here getting to know everyone!  ;)

Greetings Nicole, from the Great Pacific Northwest! Glad to have you join us in our little corner of the web, any specific theme preferences (cachalote will want to know)?

Hope to see you and/or your girls around the forum. :wave:

Hi Nicole! :wave:
Welcome to the forum. :*)

Thanks for introducing yourself. It's always fun to discover how each member became hooked on Playmobil... or "re-hooked," in your case. ;)

I'm sure you're going to enjoy it here! Please drop in often and let us know what you and your girls have been up to. :)

Welcome Nicole,

I bought that Viking Longship when it was in the shops at full price! Took me a little longer to get re-hooked, but like your girls I now have more Playmobil than I ever dreamed of - and it's mine, all mine <evil cackle>

cheers,  Martin

Thanks to all! 

Martin--your "evil cackle" kills me!  I've already told my girls that when they outgrow Playmo, it's ownership transfers to me...and then it'll be...mine, all MINE!!  Though I DID buy the Modern Dollhouse and the 4020 Train for myself last fall!

Ras--it's nice to see familiar faces (names) here!

Gepetto--We love many themes, and currently the girls are playing with the Fairytale castle, with knights and princesses battling pirates.  But, we have a little bit from most of Playmo's themes!

Many thanks for the warm welcome!

 :wave: hi kelly.
welcome.
do you still have that house near zirndorf?
45 minutes should be something like 60km (40miles) - not an impossible task to dig a tunnel.
think of what it could be, to go inside playmobil's i&d department at night, when everyone is asleep, and then report to us what new sets are being developed...  :yup:
