That's a great mobile hut for a crew of Norse workmen, especially if it rains, or they need a tea-break, or the boss is not around. Work crews round here have to make do with much inferior shelters:

Mind you, it might be a bit risky trying to stand up in the shelter wearing those particular hard hats!

Nice idea again, larryhohoho!

Lovely little Playmobil booth!
I'm glad that I'm not the only one :)

Lovely!
Did you make the mini-PM boxes yourself or are they original parts? We have had some fun making our own mini boxes by opening out the full sized boxes, scanning them and printing them out small on photo paper. It's fiddly, but my children like having the mini boxes for sets they have full size.

I wish the market traders round here had PM stalls like yours. Very few places sell new PM now (but everywhere has Lego.. petrol stations, corner shops, supermarkets,  :( )

Hi Graham,
Those little boxes are carefully hand-made by a Taiwanese collector Friend and they are way too delicate for me to do. Haha!
He sent me some as a gift late last year.

I only does this for fun because Playmobil in Asia is still quite rare to come by and the sets are also quite limited which is why I partnered up with a German Collector to bring in some for the Asia market. It is still pretty much a hobby to me.
And you are absolutely right about LEGO. They are literally EVERYWHERE!
Whats worse is, some people who didn't know Playmobil will always mistake what I'm selling as LEGO too...
Nothing makes my day more than that... Hahahaha!

Lego is a toy with figures and many small parts, often in bright colours. Playmobil is a toy with figures and many small parts, often in bright colours. So, they are the same, no?  :)

I'm just off to get my daughter a new pet. Furry animal, 4 legs, teeth, eats grass. Might get her a rabbit... or a Wildebeest...same thing, no?

Hahaha! I cannot think of a better way to describe it as you have my Friend!
