Title: Hello from the low country
Post by: Markassius on June 04, 2012, 17:23:43: Hello all.
My name is Mark de Kock and I am from The Netherlands.

After being a guest for some time, I decided it was time to get stuck in.
During the eighties, I was heavily into Playmobil (and Lego). I had a lot of cowboy and pirate sets. I lived through the introduction of the little kids and the "turnable hands".
But as I grew older, I found myself too old and I sold all of it.
Now I have three kids (2, 4 and 6) and through them, I have been reintroduced to Playmobil. And when I got hold of the Future Planet series, I was hooked.
My two oldest are daughters and they like love the dollhouse and faeries I bought them. My 4 year old is also very fond of the Dino sets.
My son of 2 just loves to play with every clicky he gets his hand on :lol:

For me, I like futuristic sets like Future Planet. However, the current Dragons and Knights are making their way into our house.
I have seen many beautiful customs here on these forums. For now, I think I will stick to stock, as to me they look awesome when compaired to the ones I remember from my childhood. I will be posting pictures of my current collection when I get it back from my kids :P

A little explanation regarding my avatar: one of my other hobbies is building RC Tank kits in 1:16 scale. A clicky is shown in every tank I have build.

I'm collecting knights, especially the exotic and ancient ones (oriental, Arabs, Gauls, Egyptians, Romans etc) to make chess sets, and also dragon and fantasy knights for my comic 'The Story of Randolph'(see below).
Hope you'll enjoy this forum!
