Aw! a true collector has been born !

No, I am saying that you seemed distressed before
because the really old sets would not be collectobil anymore if Playmobil started reproducing them.

 
if it is difficult to reproduce all the old sets playmobil has 35 years history how they will make them again all ? perhaps some of the wanted older sets will come on the ds katalogue pages in broun boxes not in the  regular catalogue

Collectable or not, value being opened or boxed etc etc personally I  dont really care about these, i care about enjoying my collection to the full, looking after them and set them all upon. Otherwiese its like these people who have  very expensice exotic cars and keep them in a garage , they are such losers !!! you only live once i say and the things we are  fortunate to have should enjoy the most otherwise regrets come only too late ( 3 ft under ... etc etc ) . enjoy your klickies people !!!!! They are meant to be played with and not kept in their boxes !!!!!!!! 

depends how someone sees the use of the things to talk for me i don't like playing i love to see them on display the toys and the mib boxes  as you tell if all the cars were used we woulden't have the first cars from the biggining of the century so playmobil if all the boxes were opened and thrown to the garbige there would be no playmo history!!

I believe that there is plenty of space in the Playmobil world for the folks who want to use their Playmobil for play as well as the folks who just want to collect and display MISB sets, not to mention all the other folks in between. 

If Playmobil re-issues the old rare sets that are in high demand (whether in colorful set boxes or plain wrappers) the MISB originals will still have a high value to serious collectors and, most importantly, those unopened originals will be able to stay unopened!

  You should see the face of my colleagues when the parcels arrive at work, or when the post office manager calls me to notify me that something big has arrived!!!!!!

I am totaly with you there Indiana!!! I love to see my playmobil on display...i love to customise them....i love to play with them...and i love to see them in their boxes...sometimes i might get a set two or three times... (not talikng about my obsession with specific themes, rather about set that i like for some reason) one is for playing, one is for customising, the third is to just to look at the box...
