It looks to me they are preparing the grounds to build a Soccer Stadium!!
Looks great btw!!

I think you're right.  It must be for the 2012 World Cup.

(Damo, in Norwich today (Saturday) I saw a display of the new construction stuff with an electrically powered digger at work.)

2012 world cup??? Do you mean the 2012 Olympics, or the 2014 World cup :hmm:

An electric powered digger sounds very interesting, and something that I've never come across before :D

Was it one of these conventions, or a show or something?

Damo :)

Why not both?   :)

It was a display of the new construction stuff in Jarrold's department store in Norwich (sorry, I should have taken a pic for you   :-[).  The digger was just turning round and the arm was extending.

I had no idea there was such a thing as a playmoloo!  (I wonder what accessories come with it? lol.  I mean, if they wanna be REALISTIC...... lol


I love your setup!  Very detailed and realistic (including rubbish in places other than the dumpsters).  You are brave to get your playmobil in the dirt, but it adds realism, and allows the toys to live up to their true nature: to be played with!  Bravo!

But seriously, what accesories DO come with the playmoloo, I wonder?
Ahoy, Pirates, Hoist the Colours!

You are more brave than me, taking your ships out on the water :o
My machines all get a clean before they are put back 8-)

Avie and Flatcat have volunteered to give you a tour ;)





Did you not think to knock before you barged in so rudely :no:




 :doh: :doh: :doh:

Inside:





The hole isn't really big enough for any 'accessories', but the portaloo is one of my favourite Playmobils :)

That is art... and so going on the wishlist.

In the playmo 2010 catalogue I picked up I was seriously shocked to see that the stable set comes with what appears to be horse poo!!! Playmo Poo!!!
