Hello from the Midwest
« on: April 27, 2010, 18:00:57 »
Hello  :wave:,
I have been interested in Playmobil for about 12 years, since my oldest boy (now 14) was little.  I never had it as a child (perhaps my parents thought them to be a boy toy).  Now, my sons are outgrowing it but I'm still enjoying it just as much as I did when we first started.  When my head gets too busy with life, I find Playmobil to be very relaxing.  I love steck and the whole medieval theme, am restoring more pirate ships then I have room for, like placing DS orders and love to trade.  I have a huge 'odd bits' bin, as well.  I can customize without too many broken bones, although I'm a bit too much of a purist to do much of it.  I've been trying to photograph some scenes but I'm not having much luck getting them to look 'real'.
So, greetings!  :)

Hi, Unasigne,
Welcome form Scotland 
My youngest son is almost 14 and I also started collecting Playmobil when my boys were young. 
I'm also restoring pirate ships and love the medieval theme. 
We should get on well!!
Best wishes,

Elaine
