Hello,
Read the messages a lot but haven't posted much as I haven't bought any new Playmobil for quite some time but I have gone absolutely mad and treated myself to a load of the stuff.
I am expecting delivery of the Wedding Church 4296 and Pavilion 4297 and hope to get all the small sets that go with it before they are no longer available. I wanted the Church the first time I saw it when it was launched in Germany, so I am looking forward to building it when it arrives.
I have also just ordered the Grande Mansion 5302, Kitchen 5329, Bathroom 5330, Parent's Bedroom 5331, Living Room 5332 and Children's Bedroom 5333. I was toying with the Suburban House but the Grande Mansion seemed better value and I like the idea of the working bedside lights in the Parent's Bedroom and the glowing fire in the Living Room. I have the original Victorian Mansion and would have liked a lighting set for that, but I don't think one was ever produced, so I will be getting some additional lighting 7484 at some point. I thought it was a lot cheaper than lighting the Suburban House, but I see that you need one set per floor!
I am planning on taking lots of photos of my new sets and hope to post them on here so everyone who may be interested in getting them for themselves can see them in detail.
It's a shame that the furniture is very modern in style. I would have liked some more period stuff similar to the Victorian theme, but I do have many of the Victorian room sets that I could furnish some of the new Grande Mansion with, especially if I get the extension floor. More money!!! Those people at Playmobil really know how
to part us with our hard earned cash don't they?
I'll be back when the hoard arrives
TTFN
