Promotional stuff: Books

next two, similar format but in larger pages - also gift figures inside a storage tray on cover of book



and some pages inside...I have to admit that I haven't really read most of them

[playmo1989]

I think I'm going to have to take pictures of all pages for you

yes please if you don't mind    i'am crazy about this series

the western theme is present in most of these different kinds of books - this time it was not the exception, and the coolest (and biggest) book is this one, which actually is also a folding scene for kids to recreate the story of the book (which is actually the smallest one )



opening it (see actual book on the right)



the story



the playing scene, to either recreate the story with the klickies it comes with or just to use it for whatever western idea you have

[Luis]

that's it for the official Playmobil books

I just ordered two more that I don't have (the fire fighters and the construction one), and I'll do a review of them when I have them on my hands

last but no least, Richard Uglik's book, which is very special for me (see below why)



what makes it a true collector's piece: it was autographed by himself
and with personalized dedicatoire
(many thanks to my French friend Stéphane who I met through Playmoboard back when the book was released - Richard told him about me and he sent me the book with his signature )
The message is both in Spanish and French:



I'm SO thankful to Richard for the nice detail - I want to get the Animal book so badly!

no problem

I bought it on ebay in 2004 - it was quite common to see it there back in the day, I'm not sure how rare it is these days

I also have a victorian wallet...that one IS rare I think, it's on the collector book (last edition). I'll also make a review of that kid of promos later in the week
