What ??? Have you already bought them. I thought you said that you would wait until they came to the UK ;)

I lied >:D

These are just figures, I haven't bought any full sets yet, but they looked at me from the pages of eBay (play-123's shop) and were just too powerful to refuse. I've got a representative sample on my desk at the moment, so I can look at them closely and enjoy the colours and patterns.

GORGEOUS is the right word martin. :love:
congratulations on your egyptians. :yup:
sometimes i think that the fact that all of us playmofriends are interested in so many different families, and use this forum to share our joy in having them, keeps me from going mad (and poor) wanting to have all the sets i find great.
in a strange way, being a playmofriend helps me feeling confortable in collecting "only" (a bit more than 100 sets) pirates.
i have to say, though, that the urge to buy all the egyptians and all the romans still "attacks" me sometimes. 8}

Martin, I love your Egyptians!  I'm very jealous, but I really like your sampling of klickies.

They are indeed gorgeous, Martin!

I've asked Santa to please leave a few Egyptian sets here at Villarisa, when he flies by on Christmas Eve. Hopefully, I'll be pleasantly surprised on Christmas morning ...  :klickywink:

Thanks for the photo.

All the best,
Richard

Playmobil sure did a good job designing these fellas . I just can not help but wonder why the one gold hat has to look so much like a Hershey's Kiss ?

You must be so tempted to just stock up now that you have a taste of what they like .

Perhaps, Martin, as a break from gloating you could do some portraits for the DB?  I'm sure everyone would like up-close views.  They're so detailed... beautiful!
