Great Collection Johan!

Do you have any characters and background stories, or is your collection (like mine is at present) just a collection?

I now live in Oregon (since December 20090 so I'm taking a greater interest in the whole history and development of the West. I have plans for an imaginary Western world where the ACW can continue with small skirmishes, alongside gold panners and miners, fur trappers, smalltime farmers and ranchers, lumberjacks, and so on. I'd love to add a railway, but so far I have three carriages but no engine or tracks!

I notice you have no confederate soldiers (aka Rebels). Are you planning to add any, or is your Western setup based after the American Civil War  (1861-1865).

The white gunbelt on your otherwise black bandit must have come from the 4525 Trick Shooter.

The sheriff with black hair has just has his hair changed, there was never one produced that way.

I'm not sure to even call it a collection, this is what I (or my son) found in my parents basement last week. He was completely sold, and started to play with it.

Then I felt like, I want to play too, a more grown up word might be collect. ;)

I will try to add some more soldier and sure, some confederals too if I can find any. But tonight I will try to build up my Indian village and the train station that I also fund in my parents basement today.

I'm not so sure abut that, I see it was released 1996, I must have been to old at that time to still be playing/buying Playmobil-sets. But everything is possible

Okay, that makes sense.

Some more pictures will come.

That's a nice collection of Western sets! :)  My Western collection is a combination of old sets from when I was a child and new sets that I've recently purchased.
