Grüß Gott and hello to everybody!
After looking at the members' list I really wonder who doesn't already know me as I was more or less familar with all the names there. So please forgive me if some of the following sounds a bit familiar to you:
My name is Markus, I'm 36, recently married to a wonderful woman named Ooh (aka asuki) and I've fallen for Playmobil since I bought my first package in 1975 (it was either a 3312 construction worker or a 3313 roadman, I don't remember exactly). I live in Germany in the city of Essen in the Ruhr area which is north of Cologne. Originally I come from a little town in Bavaria, about 120 km south of Zirndorf (should ring a bell with everybody here).

We just moved and now I have the privilege to call a whole room in our apartment my "Playmobil Room" although officially it's called a hobby room. At the moment it's still filled with a lot of boxes (yes, mainly those boxes) and it's difficult to move let alone work inside. You'll notice once we're able to take up playmobil operations again!

our playmobil you may want to visit her website:
