@SoMuchToBits

I love the idea of Mary and Joseph helping the bin men! Grin
They had to do something while Jesus was preaching in the temple Grin

Which pool are you bidding on, @IPeedInThePool ?

katmunchkin · 13/11/2020 20:44

@IPeedInThePool

Yep kat get it on eBay it really holds it’s value and sells well by the sounds of it.

I’ve also bid on an apple orchard, little tree surgeon man with trees, a goat milking man? With a few goats trees etc and a bird feeding man with birds and trees.

It's all animal related - zoos, stables, vets etc. Sure there'll be a market for it Grin

It was the one with the small pool to the side and a slide .... but I didn’t win it 🙈 off on a playmobil hunt

If so, looks like there are a few on eBay at the moment. We have that set too!

Ohhh where do you get the fake grass from? (And trying to think if there’s something for a fake sea).

Your kids will love it!

SoMuchToBits · 14/11/2020 21:27

I think I bought my fake grass from Amazon. For a fake sea, I use my ds's fleece camping blanket.

For snow I use a white sheet, and for sand, a sandy coloured blanket.

I love playmobil! When I was little I really wanted the Victorian dollhouse 😄 now I’ve started buying my son some playmobil sets. I really recommend this website that has lots of playmobil at discounted prices. Have ordered from there before

Well it’s official I can’t hold my own piss! I’ve give them it this morning all set up there is non stop adverts on tv and I just caved 🙈 we have more bits to come so for Christmas Day I’m going to set up “water park” and cafe

OP posts:
IPeedInThePool · 15/11/2020 16:35

Wow just got a water park bundle from play Mobil site £30!!! So that’s Christmas done! Will set up the water park with orbeez as water and cafe. The other pieces I’ve bought can add to the set I gave today. They have played with it ALL Day and have played nicely shockingly!

OP posts:
SoMuchToBits · 15/11/2020 20:20

Sounds like a result! You can't go wrong with Playmobil...

SoMuchToBits · 16/11/2020 16:12

Yay! My Playmo school has arrived! Now just need to construct it... Smile

IPeedInThePool · 16/11/2020 18:25

Woo! Can’t wait to see it hoping for a playmobil thread Am waiting on the cafe and some other small people sets and then the water park bundle but that’s going away for Christmas definitely!!

OP posts:
SoMuchToBits · 16/11/2020 21:21

Well, I have constructed it, but, but, but... there are so many missing pieces from the set. The seller said on the listing that a couple of small pieces were missing, so I didn't expect it to be complete, but there are 20 different components missing.

Most of these are small accessories, but a couple are slightly more important (e.g. there is a desk with sides, back and drawers but no top, and the hands for the clock are missing). Also, many of the missing parts I can order from the Playmo spare parts service, but a few are now unavailable (including the sink fitting for which there is a tap, but no sink!).

So I will have to order some spare parts and see what I can do before using the set.

Levatrice · 16/11/2020 21:26

Wow i would have loved to have woken up to this on Xmas day what a great idea!!

Itsmeeloise · 16/11/2020 22:12

A family car. Fits with just about every theme and can be played with without having to get everything else out.

SoMuchToBits · 17/11/2020 22:53

Family car is always good.

SoMuchToBits · 18/11/2020 22:06

I have ordered a load of spare parts for my school. No idea how long it will take to receive them though.

May also have ordered some other bits from the Playmo website today. Smile

IPeedInThePool · 19/11/2020 18:44

All our other stuff came today aswell!! Which school did you get SoMuch? After school today we set it all up so we have made a “bird watchers cafe” in the woods with our bird feeder set and cafe oh and the play area too. The kids are loving it! We’ve got so many people now which is fun.

Our water park set came aswell but that’s being saved till Xmas still can’t believe I got three sets for £30!! They went up the next day back up to £40 and then unavailable so bargain indeed! Going to look for the life guard aswell I think......

It’s so addicting!

OP posts:
SoMuchToBits · 19/11/2020 20:41

Ah, I thought your stuff would come quite quickly! The school I've bought is this one

playmodb.org/setpics/4/4324.jpg

We already have some of the smaller add-on sets to go with it, which we bought years ago for ds.

And yes, Playmo is addictive! Grin

PoodleMoth · 20/11/2020 16:43

Bargains! It's the waterpark and cafe etc that we have and it's fantastic! I love playmobil!
