Last thing you looked at and thought I WANT THAT!!!

[Forever Jung]

I feel your pain, IA! Collectibles that I want always seem to come up at times when I have no money. I still have my eye on those two giant Playmobil figures in Eastbourne, but I reckon they're going to sell for hundreds!

Bought them. Didn't plan ahead. How the f*** am I going to collect them from Eastbourne? Even for an experienced driver it would be a very long day trip! Trying to find a courier.

Are these the near life sized ones?
How much did you pay for them if you don't mind me asking?

Yes. I paid £205, which is crazy, as a similar one sold on ebay for £800 last month. They were very poorly advertised - the keywords were rubbish, and the photo thumbnail, at first glance, just made them look like ordinary sized figures.

I've contacted some couriers for quotes, and actually it looks like it'll only cost me about £30. The problem is with regard to arranging a time that's convenient for both the courier and the seller...

Here they are: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/290675877612? ... 1439.l2649

Here's the one that sold for £800: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Playmobil-5-L ... 2eba41cb74

Great deal

I think this is the first step on a road that will lead you to being on a TV show 10 years from now showing off your collection that has taken over your house

I saw an article online recently about a guy who has the worlds biggest Dalek collection.


The really weird thing is that he's not a Doctor Who fan

I expect I'll get lots and lots of weird looks when I carry them around for photos, but I kind of see that as a good thing.

:twisted: Great deal

It's getting that way!

This photo shows about a fifth of what we have at the mo - this is in my lounge! It's hard to see the scale from this pic, but I reckon this part's about 8ft long.

Awesome!

I used to have Playmobile when I was a kid, my favourite stuff was the comboys and indians.

I remember I had a playmobile ghost as well

Cool!

If they're still lying around and you like to make some money for them, I know someone who'd be happy to buy them.

As far as I know, all my old Playmobile stuff (as well as all my other old toys) are in my parents loft.

The Ghost was pretty cool, i've just had a quick peek and seen a few of them on ebay.

[Dorset Girl]

Yes, I love the ghost! I don't have one though, and I really must not buy any more at the moment!!

Woggle - I'm going to stand them in front of the net curtains, looking out at the street, teehee!

Yes, it's a church to the left. There's a bell that peals, and a piano that plays the Wedding March! I'm not a religious person, but I think the church is one of my favourite Playmobil items. The stained glass windows are really pretty.

[insaneasperger]

Awesome DG! If I could drive I'd of quite happily gone and got them for you!

I god out in about 5 hours if I've won my giant robin hood I'm bidding on!

[CatNamedRudy]
