A few months ago I asked for the instuctions of the 3750 ship! Gordon was kind and helpfull to send them to me!! Thanks again Gordon!!!

I needed these instructions so that I could send one of my 3750 pirate ships to a friend of mine in Athens who grew up deprived of his wish to own a 3550 ship! He is today 38 years old and I think he is about to rediscover his childhood!!!!

I knew for a fact that he had a 3480 - Pirates set and I also knew that he did not like the more recent klickies...so, despite the few differences between the ships, here is his 3750 ship with an older klicky crew!!!!

The photos are shaky but i think he was very emotional....


A very nice gift Panos, and still my favorite Playmobil ship, despite 3286 having more guns. Interesting that your friend does not like the newer pirates.

Thanks Martin!!

Well, he prefers to remember things, in this case playmobil, the way they used to be! Modern klickies are .... well, too modern for him! He still likes the various themes and all the colours but he is not at all thrilled with them!

That would be great Baden, but as I wrote earlier he is a very busy man and I doubt he would!

Hi

It is rare in this day and age to have friendships like yours. You are both very lucky to have each other. That was a very kind gesture on your part  :**:
