Giorginetto's Pirate Collection
« on: August 09, 2013, 14:57:32 »
Ahoy me harties !!!!

Finally after many many years of collecting some pirate sets its time to set my small pirate collection up. We are currently at our holiday home at Akrata Greece where we are 50metres  from the beach, i cant think of a better place to set me pirates. So today i brought half of my collection from the master playmo den at corinth ( 60min drive from Akrata) and started setting it all up at the 1st floor of our house ( where the guest rooms and Sophie's rooms are , all currenlty not occupied so playmos are taking over this summer this floor  :lol: :lol: :lol:.  i watched master and commande also the other day and tomorrow will wtch the goonies  :love: :love: :love: :love:

Tomorrow i will bring also  the rest of my collection, 4 large pirate islands, couple of small ones, two lighthouses, about 12-13  ships ( only  :-\)  and a few pirates, a small unit of tall hats etc . reckon will set an english naval base, a spanish one and then a couple of different pireate places/ships etc . started setting things up today will take me a few days to set it all up then will post some pictures etc

.... until i have an army of 150+ tall hats and 20+ ships  it will be small for me  8} 8}  . those who know me i am sure can 'sympathise' with me. i got the plkaymo fever since 5 and the only cure is to buy playmos in excessive numbers .anyways i will be also setting my first and original pirate ship which i have since the late 70s as well as the cannon galleons ( i have the extra cannons to turn them into proper manowars ) , hopefully will have everythign set in tghe next few days

1 english port + 3 cannon galleons ( 3940) + 1 english frigate ( Governor Sir Iseroth's yacht - 3055)
1 spanish stronghold ( two lighthouses) + 3 spanish galleons ( 4290)  the formitable spanish captain Don Eseraldo leading )
4 pirate inslands- varius pirates and ships  ( various pirate captains and characters)
and a few coconut trees, minkeys, turtles, crocodiles etc etc ....
and a few merchant's ships ( the ' cannon fodder' )

I wish i had some steck houses handy to built a small colony actually but i think as it is i will have a mightmare setting the above up without one ship being on top of the other. i suppose someone has to use a  lot of imagination for distances between all tghe above. i think the 4290 is more 'spanish like' and the 3940 more ' english like' so i am gonna gp for that set up ( any suggestions welcomed ) . i  dont have enought playmo rocks so i will have to improvise to set some trees up etc ( i promised the wife i wont be drilling the wooden floor though) . anyways , time to get back to setting up. i have two MISB 3940 , these are pretty high value these days , but i think i will be opening them up  :love: :love: :love: :love: :love:

If your pirate collection is "small", than mine must be tiny! ;)
Looking forward to seeing pics!

A large ship, a small ship, a few rowboats, the redcoat fort and a tiny island with about 30-40 clickies is the extend of my pirate collection, pretty much what Giorginetto might consider a modest batch coming in from ebay or DS service.  ;)

Work is progressing well. I have set up my very first pirate playmobil ship whicvh was a present to me in 1979 or 1980 if  recall. still have top bring some more stuff from the master den ( tomorrow) and then i will complete the setting hopefully end of this week. i need to find a way to set the coconata trees up as i have used a lot of their rocky bases in the krull empire . i will be getting some pebbles also from the beack to add some realist to the set up

tomorrow i will bring here my MISB sets and open them , i will open and set everything i got  !  :P :P :P

i wish i had more redcoats and some steck houses here etc but i guess i already have no space . anyways , it takes ages with this mobile internet connectin i use with this small sony vaio i use during out holidays to download pictures but i promise i will be posting plenty of pictures when everything is set  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

i need more ships . and tall hats  :loco: :loco: :loco: :loco:.. damn it playmobil greece take telephone orders bnow but they are closed till end of august, i wouldnt mind a few dozens of tall hats /royal marines landing on the shores of the Krullian seas  :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
