Stuff found in a car
« on: March 16, 2011, 18:39:01 »
I recently started to excavate an old garage of mine to put in concrete. I needed to move some cars out and when I opened one up that was sealed for quite a while I was pleasantly surprised by my forgotten stash. I put these in the car to keep them out of sight from my kids when I had the office. When I moved the collection to the barn I paid no attention to them. Now with the job I get to sort is all out. These are the type of strange situations that must odd to non collectors. I recall the story where the collector years ago had a huge MIB collection that he had to sell due to his wifes frustration. It all went to a consignment shop. 

I will post updates when I sort it all out  8}



If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

We've got a lot of cars, but none of them have any Playmobil in :(

What's that plane in the foreground? Don't recognise the markings.

It was a TRU sea plane. When it first came out at TRU it was a great bargain compared to the police version. I picked up a few for possible painting. Oops I guess I need to get around to it  :-[ I did find a new 5300 with the original playmobil cardboard box in there  <:>

Thanks, I thought it looked like a sea plane but couldn't work out why it didn't look like mine!!! I have the police version.

A new 5300, eh?  Please tell me you didn't forget you had it  :'(

You're a definite playmowacko when you find a stash this large that you had forgotten you even had! Unbelievable! Have you considered counseling?  :P

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.

Yes, it was from an over priced Stanford pupil and I got thrown out  :lol: I guess I started making him crazy  :-[
