5' soldier statue finally secured
« on: February 28, 2011, 05:18:38 »
After many years of searching I have found one of these great soldier staues. ebay link below:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rt=nc&nma=true&item=330534328092&si=CVdbxXvdtli6P3P0HsJ672N4KIw%253D&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT

I haven't posted in awhile because I've been busy opening my own toy shop. I have just come back from New York Toy Fair and was able to get an account. Playmobil will be one of my main toy lines and this soldier will be perfect for the shop. I've been collecting toys for a long time, opening a store is a dream come true. I'm in Port Townsend, the store is Whistle Stop Toys. No website yet, but you can find me on Facebook. I try to post pics of new stuff when it comes in. My frist Playmobil order is on its way and I'll be sure to take pics when it arrives. There is some amazing stuff coming out this year, including collectable figures similar to the LEGO ones that came out last year.

What's the point of going, if you can't get there on a train?

Congratulations on all accounts.  Where in Port Townsend are you going to be?  In old town near the waterfront or inland?  We used to go to Port Townsend every year for vacation on our boat when I was growing up, and I was just there a couple of years ago on a peninsula road trip, stopping to see the Adventuress, the 101 ft schooner, that I used to crew on.  I wish you much success in your new venture.  Keep us posted.

Congratulations on your new venture of opening a Brick & Mortar toy shop! Where is Point Townsend located? We wish you the best of luck, & hopefully we'll be able to do business with you through the internet once you tell us how to contact you with your address! Your store mascot is excellent!

Congratulations!
Port Townsend Washington yes? You are pretty close to Ronastoo then.  It would be great if you can join us for our next regional meet whenever that is. I know Glazz will be doing the Puyallup train show next November so we may try for that one. If we don't make that then the Seattle show will be likely.
