Hello from South Carolina!  I used to live in Fayetteville when I was stationed at Fort Bragg!

Elric - thanks.  I am at the center of the universe and have been since Halloween 2001 except for a few trips overseas and year as a resident at Leavenworth.

Wow! That is almost 10 years in Fayetteville! A long time! You must like it there!
Where do you buy your PM? I use Science Safari and TRU in Cary and eBay mostly.
Glad you are back into PM....it really is so much fun! Holler if I can help you with anything as we are just an hour apart, and I have been in the Triangle for 17 years. Cheers, Pgal :wave:

It has been a long time and I have enjoyed it.  I am fairly senior and am at the mercy of a command selection board for my next assignment.

I shop at the TRU on Skibo and there is a mom and pop toy store on Bragg Road called Tiny Toys, I think.  I do a little on evilBay, Playmobil USA's site and just contacted DS with a large request for customs.

I am focusing on only a few themes and trying to stick to fi?ures only.  Mainly Pirates, Indians/Native Americans (vintage and recent) and I just discovered the Vikings.   I am working on some American Revolution time frame customs.  I will try to get the seasonal items for decorations and can't wait for the stone age ones to arrive in the US.

Shawn,
Cool! Will have to try out that little toystore on our next time in Fayetteville.
I have had a lot of luck buying Klickies from Germany on eBay. Their selection is often much better than ours when it comes to people.  And they tend to take very good care of their toys.
I have been watching the Viking boat at Science Safari and not taken the plunge yet because it is kind of large. But it does look plenty cool.
If you have a TM, look for specials there. I found a couple of cowboys with the green shirt today for 1.49. Cool!
Good luck collecting and with your next assignment. Hope it is near a PM store!
