Wahey - a friend of mine today gave me a MIB space station from the 1980s! Methinks this will be the first set I am going to keep MIB. To think how much I wanted one, when I was a nipper  ::) ::)

I think he has more stashed away in the attic. His uncle used to work for PM way back when, and he used to give sets to my friend from time to time. Heh ... and now I got to know that when he (my friend) told his wife he was going to give me this space station, his wife kept telling him: 'don't, don't ... don't give your rubbish to other people!'

Congratulations on the birthday and the sets. 

I had a good spell when I got the old jousting set complete in the box along with 3959 (King's court).  I got them both for around £10 plus p+p.  The gods of Playmobil were smiling on me that day.  I also got 3674 (Prisoner Cart), 3653 (catapult) complete in their boxes around the same time.  My favourites were 3624 (Merry Men's hideaway) and 3627 (Merry Men's feast) - complete in their boxes.

Congrats!

Once you get the castle set up and then compare it to the new ones I think you will like the size and the ease of putting it together.  The walls really are higher, which is more realistic.  The ease of expansion is really a (the?) key part.

Yahee (for me). This morning I laid my hands on a large set of klickies - 76 in all.  ;D ;D ;D 25 of those are redcoat klickies, another 25 are big bertha type soldiers and the remaining 25 assorted pirates  ;D ;D ;D And at a very good price too.
