Some of pics of my new Playmobil room (90 % misb)

[playmoed]

Thanks Aleon!
It definitly is a odd box - never seen it before!

But suddenly I realised there's another, more odd thing...
Playmoed - where did you get that cupboard? Isn't it too much of a coincidence that all those boxes fit smuggly inside it ?

Hi,

I think it was a French Carrefour exclusive. Carrefour is similar like Walmart in the US. It's actually a suitcase and like Antonio said a combination of 2 or 3 individual Playmobil sets. The cupboard was customly made (no just kidding), it's pure coincidence that these boxes fit so perfectly. All the other cupboards are from Ikea with the exception of the big glass cabinet. All my really rare stuff I have displayed in this room, the rest is down in the cellar (luckily dry)

  Fantastic collection, Ed! 

That very elegant room reminds me of a museum, especially with that attractive bench in the center.  It looks like a very pleasant spot from which to contemplate your impressive assembly of Playmo treasures.   

Thank you, entrance fee is 5 euros  You're right, I recently moved to another house and I'm happy that I had this spare room where I could display part of my collection. Sometimes I do sit on this bench and think about the crazy amount of money I spent on it. But hey, it makes me happy and luckily I am not the only crazy collector out there

I had a great visit with Frank and Axel (and others) last Thursday, I had to travel 500 kms, but it was worth it. By the way I can speak a bit of Spanish too 

axel has come back from Florida!? great
there is a meeting in OHZ in November 8th. do you know if you, Axel or Frank are going there?
yes I have some pictures for Axel. All famobil collection, and some other exclusives boxes than I have been geting during last 2 years.

Wow!  Nice!  I see a lot of sets I'd love to open up and play with!

If you hadn't said you were kidding, I would have believed you!
Like Bogro, I was surprised at how well those boxes fit into the shelving compartments.

Your Playmobil room is amazing. It would be nice to see some sets out of their boxes too, but I can appreciate that some collectors prefer to keep their sets sealed.

I hope you have your collection insured. It would be incredibly difficult (perhaps even impossible with regards the rollercoaster set) and prohibitively expensive to replace some of that stuff.

That is a great collection, beautifully displayed!
Thanks for showing us .

Best regards,
Jimbo

Hi Antonio,

I don't know exactly where that is, but it seems a small fair to me. Maybe one day we'll meet again.

Saludos,

I don't know exactly where that is

the same meeting all years was made in ritterhude. but this year is in ohz.
not so big like the wolfsburg one. But in 2008 there is no meeting there. The next big one in 2009 April i think

Hi,

Were you planning to come over ? On February 9 a couple of us (MIB collectors) will go to the Neurenberg Fair again, maybe you could join us.

Saludos,

Eddy

a great collection playmoed. 
i am actually building a special cupboard for my collection (i am waiting for the carpenter to finish it).
i only have 107 sets, still waiting in boxes ever since i moved home.
i have a question for you playmoed - don't you think that yout sets get a little sad staying on the dark inside their boxes?
