Title: Hello from Florida, U.S.A.
Post by: Candrr on August 02, 2013, 23:10:52

Hey everyone.. I'm a newbie to the whole Playmobil scene.  I recently was given four medium size boxes stuffed with all sorts of playmobil sets, figures and what looks like about a thousand little pieces of all sorts of stuff, LOL.  Of course.. all jumbled up together!!!  Most are about ten years old (I think), and I am at a loss as to how I am going to get it all sorted!  I've got at least 100 figures, and probably about a dozen sets.  I've been researching the playmobil U.S. site and also the collectobil site and have managed to find a few instruction manuals or at least pictures of the set.  I'm really hoping that some of you experienced playmobil enthusiasts may be able to enlighten me on some of the sets/people I have.  My living room and dining area have currently been into playmobil central!

Ok, that was a long hello, LOL.  Looking forward to chatting with you all.

Welcome from the Wild West of Canada. 

Yes, Collectobil is a good site to start with.  Probably the best one available now.  Yet, it is outdated and probably will not have a lot of the sets you have.  Their info is more like for 15 - 20+ year old sets. 

Feel free to take some pictures of some key elements and post them under the "What is This?" section.

Greetings from Fort Lauderdale :)
I'm not sure where in Florida you are, but if you're ever in the Palm Beach area, you MUST visit the Playmobil FunPark. But make sure you leave your wallet at home. :)
