Well I am 40 so playing time is over for me  :'

I'm 43 and still make time to play, and don't even have children as an excuse!  :lol:

However I fully understand you keeping these very old sets in mint condition, they are far more valuable that way. You can always buy modern sets for actual playing.

Thanks for all these pictures of the old sets - I had Playpeople, mostly knights and western, with a few construction guys. The simple bright colors and interchangeability of the figures are a far cry from today's figures, and very pleasing in the way they allow more room for a child's imagination.

I never saw the knights' white shields and cloaks before, I guess they only came out in Germany and didn't reach the UK, or maybe my "collection" was completed before they were released.
