Hello From Brooklyn NYC!
« on: September 16, 2010, 15:34:53 »
Hello All!
I am an avid toy Collector and Wargamer.  Wargaming is how I got into Playmobil over 20 years ago.  I am part of a group that Wargames with 54mm Toy Soldiers.  For Scenery and Buildings we always used Playmobil.  The first version Castle system are an all time favorite, also the Pirate ship.  In the early 90's when the Knights and Pirates changed and became more detailed I really took notice of the figure themselves.  My wife is the one one bought me some of those Pirate and Knight sets.  I have been in love with the little guys ever since!   I now have a vast collection of Playmobil.  Thanks to my wargaming pals and my wife!  At our wedding in '94 we gave out the first version Playmobil Specials as our wedding favors.  That was my wife's idea!   :lol:

Hey David,

Have a great time here and please share some pictures of your set ups.
