Hey Anna! I'm a 32-year-old mom living in Antwerp, Belgium, and I've been collecting since the eighties as well  :)

The set you mention has a special place in my heart - actually I had the same set but in green-and-white. When I was about 10 years old we were on holiday by the seaside, and there was an old toy shop that carried Playmobil from way back. I imagine it had been sitting on the shelves for quite some time. The box of the kindergarten set was bruised and I was able to buy it for less, so that I could afford it. I was extremely happy with it - furnishing houses was my favourite passtime. Actually I think it may still be  ;D

Have tons of fun on the forum! I hope you feel like sharing some pictures of your collection.

Thank you for all the welcomes and kind words!  I am working on organizing my collection and hope to post pictures as I get things all set up.  I don't have much space currently so it will be a work in progress.  So excited to be here and thank you again!

Welcome to the PF club house.  :wave: glad you joined

I am sure I do not need to tell you to not take it personal as I offend often  :xmascheer:

You did get your wish to come true at the pcc  :love:

But if I am so offensive why then as soon as I get the boot there you join here? A test perhaps ?

Any hoooo, this is a great collection of collectors and it's not a safe space all the time  :house:
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:

Welcome Anna, a shame to hear your kids lay aside playmobil so quickly. My christmas list was filled with playmobil untill I went to high school.

I'm from the Netherlands and mostly gather medieval and pirate stuff for stories, would not say I am technically a collector since whatever I buy must be in service of the stories I make.  :)

Welcome! I am a recent transplant from Vancouver, WA...now I find myself an Oregonian...just across the Columbia River.  :)   This is a great forum and glad you found us!!  I am also a mom to growing kids that no longer want to play with Playmobil...more for me!
