Hello from Zurich
« on: January 04, 2010, 12:20:12 »
Hi everybody,

I'm from Zurich in Switzerland and i'm 28 years old and i'm student of history at the university of Zurich. Beside playmobil my hobbys are karate, comics, books and spending time with my friends. And i love to watch hollywood movies and i'm huge fan of scrubs.

I got my first playmobil in the age of 5 as a birthday present (the knight nr. 3329). I stopped to buy and play with playmobil when i was a teenager but i never lost my love to the small men. That's why i chose the nickname playmobueb. "Bueb" ist swiss german for "boy"; so playmobueb = playmoboy.

One year ago i discovered klickywelt.de, and the fever came back. The main theme i'm collecting is the western (1st place) and the knights (2nd) theme from the 90's. But i also have allmost all animals, the zoo and the circus in my boxes. ;)

8 months ago, i launched my own western city, "Sweetwater". The town is growing and growing and i'm looking forward to show you some pictures of it.

Well. i'm glad being here an i'm hoping for good time!

Cheers,

PB

Howdy, and welcome from sunny Arizona :wave:

(It is interesting that you called your western town Sweetwater.  There is a
place, or area in Nevada by that name.  Grandpa, a Swiss immigrant, drove his cattle
there for range land....I was just a little buckaroo back then ;D)

Best regards,
Jimbo

Hi Playmobueb  :wave:

   Howdy and welcome to this neck of the woods we call PlaymoFriends. It is great to have you aboard and I look forward to seeing your Western town. For some reason Sweetwater is a familiar sounding Playmo town. I have always liked the sound of that name and it is used around here for water spring companies "Sweetwater Springs". Enjoy your stay and we look forward to your contributions.

Welcome Playmobueb!

A lot of us are secretly Western Fans, my first klickies were cowboys, and even with just the accessory sets quite a nice little western theme can still be built up.

looking forward to seeing moreof Sweetwater!

cheers,  Martin
