Little miracles in B.A.
« on: April 05, 2014, 16:33:34 »
I use to have a thread where I showed all my purchases.
For known reasons I am opening a new one and call it LITTLE MIRACLES IN B.A. (B.A. = Buenos Aires)  ;)

Here is what I found yesterday





I love those!!
I think the big tree is missing a foliage piece, can someone confirm? I don't find a pic that shows the whole tree.
This one brougth an extra branch not shown in the pic so it was a good deal anyway.  :)

Great finds!   :)  The magic ones are some of my favourite sets. I bought all of them when they were released except for the green guy, and now I'm kicking myself.

Nice sets those!
The magic tree building instructions are available online (http://playmobil.scene7.com/is/content/Playmobil/3897pdf.pdf) and show two large (which you have) and one small green foliage pieces in this set. I would send you one, but it might take a while to reach you... I am glad to see you don't have to rely upon imports for all your Playmobil purchases!

Great finds. Those are really neat old sets that I look out for often.  It would be nice if Geobra could do more weird plant colors and faces like that purple one and the tree trunk.
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:
