It's advent for the Playmobil people in our house...

[SoMuchToBits]

...and so every day between now and Christmas I'll be bringing you some scenes of what they are getting up to during advent.

Today Marta is helping Matthias put up the Christmas decorations. She puts the last bauble on the tree.

My husband bought me a posh chocolate advent calendar this year which was very unexpected..... But this is so much better. I'm very excited for the rest of the month.

Thank you all! I'm sure it was really almost lunchtime when Ulf and Annifrid popped the cork!
Pleased that so many people like the thread.
Now I want to know where the festive smileys are - there don't seem to be any!

Time for a shout out to some of the regulars on Playmo threads, who might enjoy this.

Do please come and have a look!

So pleased to see this! I don’t recall the mini nativity set before.

NC but regular Playmo lover, thank you for this @SoMuchToBits

PS yes, why IS there no festive smileys? I am so old skool MN I have remembered the formula

Eeek. Should that be why ARE there no festive smileys? I can’t tell…

I look forward to this every year!

These are always so sweet. Simple but somehow really expressive in their own way!

Honestly I'm surprised you can't get some fancy contract relating to advertising Playmobil?!

Lovely to see you all! @LIZS I've definitely used at least one of the mini nativity sets before. Here is Marta putting out hers in 2018!

Thanks @WelcomeToDecemberItGetsWorseHereEveryDay I'll try one! wasn't sure they were working earlier.

@BillieWiper my stuff is not at all professional enough for Playmobil to be interested!

Great thread, yet again OP - merry christmas! 🎄🎄

🎶It's The Most Wonderful Time of the Year🎶

New guy Ulf is looking a bit buttoned-up in his collar and tie - maybe he needs the wine to chill!

Will there be Gluhwein this evening?

Thank you Bits - a lovely start to December 🎄🎅

Squeee!

Maybe not this evening @Westfacing but I reckon gluhwein should feature somewhere in the thread!

I must say I disagree! You really bring them to life x

Ah thank you @BillieWiper the main thing is that people enjoy the photos!

Oooh I’ve just bought the playbook nativity and 3 kinds for my grand sons so following! What a lovely idea!

Checking in for a Playmo Christmas! Will catch up properly this eve - thanks @SoMuchToBits

@SoMuchToBits

I've never clicked on one of your threads before, but this is lovely (and right up our street). Our Nativity always features 3 Playmobil mechanics as the wise men, bringing gifts of a spanner, an oil filter and a wrench.

I don't wish to lower the tone, but your advent crown seems to be made out of...um...mini personal devices!

@PaulineMush I love the idea of 3 Playmo mechanics with gifts of spanner, oil filter and wrench!

I think you'll find those are candles...

I think you'll find those are candles...

I knew that :-)

A bit early for our Nativity, but I'll try and post a picture of the mechanics when they get dug out of the garage.

Lovely! I always like seeing other people's Playmo photos!

Thanks for the heads-up, @SoMuchToBits - it wouldn’t be Christmas without the Playmo Adventure calendar!

Thank you for the tag @SoMuchToBits - lovely to see this back again!!

@SoMuchToBitsThank you again 😊 My Husband is a huge Playmobil and Lego fan & I will be showing him this thread later. He will be Made Up 😊🎄🧑‍🎄 🌟🎁
