Hello from Illinois
« on: July 25, 2011, 15:22:35 »
Hi,   :wave:  I've been lurking here for some time and finally had a few extra Euros to join. I may be one of the longest Playmobil collectors here, first loading up on the few sets available in Germany in the mid 70s.  I still have a few paint your own sets around. My children have gone through lots of sets, some of which are still around.(the sets, not the children. They've moved and left a lot of the stuff here).  Our grand-daughter now is starting a nice collection of things to play with, some brand-new, some passed down. As you can imagine, she loves coming here to play. 
I've got a mess of train sets, and just passed on a few more, but am really looking forward to the reissues of the windmill and water tank, hopefully here next year.  If I can figure out how to post pictures I've got some great Chirstmas set-ups I've done, and am really looking forward to the new Christkindlemarket sets this year.
Anyhow, nice to meet you all. I've made some nice friends world-wide over the years from PMB, and hope to continue to make more.
Best,
J.
