Nice haul
« on: January 07, 2011, 02:47:03 »
Hi,

We made a trip to Indianapolis today to search for a good store that carries Playmobil and we got a great haul. I am just so excited about the new editions to our collection, I thought I'd share  :D The only store that sells PM is within an hour and a half's drive away (besides a shelf or two at Toys R Us), so when we walked into this cabin out in the boonies (a Christmas tree farm) we didn't even know if we were at the right place. We were so surprised to find an entire room- a whole room ( :omg:) of Playmobil!!!!

We found the Viking longhouse 3151, which is retired and, in my opinion, hard to find. It had a nice layer of dust on it, but found it just the same. We got a few add-ons in the bags, but here is the majority of what we got....



Cheers :**:
Jenna

In the end, we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.

We were in heaven! It's nice to know we can actually get Playmobil when we want it. We were pretty unsettled abut Ridge Road Station. It wasn't in the pic, but Collin got the box-car racing set (4141) and he is currently sleeping with the cars. He was clutching the box to his chest asking "can we take this home"? So sweet  ;D

So far so good  ;D He even "helped" build the dragon knight's castle. Only two years more until he gets his own castle. I hope he still likes castles by then  8}

Well, if not castles maybe something else. That's what is so great about playmobil; it has something for everybody!
