New Toy shop in town!
« on: December 30, 2010, 17:40:39 »
There is a new toy shop in town (not our nearest one, but still close)

The shop's name is "Cuthbert's Toys" and is a Toymaster





The shop iself was very nicely laid out. It was almost like an art gallery infact.

Along with Playmobil, there were large displays of Sylvanian Families, L***, Schleich and other top quality toys.

No tat at all ;D


The Playmobil display was impressive, but there wasn't an overly large range



I bought the 4832 with my Christmas money :elf:


Overall a very nice shop, and it's nice to see a new toyshop opening up, rather than closing down :)

Damo :)

Unfortunately not, as they are not allowed to sell them :(

No, because they are apparently loaned to them by Playmobil. I have given up asking in shops now because I keep get the same answer :lol:

I think shops can also buy them, I'm not exactly sure :-\

Good, as you say, to see toy shops opening rather than closing but bad for your savings plans I imagine.    :)

The only problem with new toyshops is that they have no old sets!!!

Its really wierd how people manage to get hold of the giant klickies... its impossible to buy directly from playmobil as they are only giving it to toyshops to indicate that playmobil are being sold here... I now for a fact that the giant klickies given by Playmobil Hellas to toyshops are borrowed... a toyshop owner is obliged to give them back to playmobil...

maybe some toysellers in other countries are indeed allowed to buy them...
