That is some very creative customization and wonderful photography you have there. As for Playmobil here i wouldn't raise your hopes too much as i doubt you will find the selection to be as good as what you can find there. Also price-wise, if Lego is anything to go by then you may find the items over here to be pricier. Isetan and Metrojaya at the Curve would be the places to hit but if you are at Pavilion then Isetan at KLCC or probably Lot 10 maybe closer for you to pop by and look-see. In Bangsar Shopping Centre there is a toy shop called York House that has a decent selection but that is even more off your path than the Curve. Actually now that i think of it i did notice a huge Playmobil display outside Mothercare in Bangsar Shopping Centre which may mean that they too might carry Playmobil stock as well. I will probably be hitting KLCC in the next two days so i might give you a siterep on the Playmobil front if you want. fess

Checked out Mothercare at KLCC and they have a few Playmobils only. A couple of single figs and a slightly larger fig + vehicle sets.
The pricing is RM35 for a single and RM59.90 for the fig + vehicle set.
TRU confirmed they do not carry the set, which is why Parkson KLCC also doesn't seem to carry them as they supply them their toys, i believe.
Didn't have time to check out Isetan but i know they have at least 1 section next to the Legos.

Bro,
Have you managed to hit Kay El yet?
If you haven't here is the siterep for Bangsar Shopping Centre or BSC.
For a start you can scratch off Mothercare from the list as they don't have any Playmobil there anymore. Oddly enough Times the Bookstore (directly next-door to Mothercare) does stock them. Not many but they have a few.
York House over in the new wing is probably the mother lode for Playmobil. They have the blind packet Series 3 & 4 in stock, retailing for RM14.90 per packet. Not sure what series is the latest but they have some 3's and 4's there.
Playmobil Special and Playmobil Special Plus are going for RM17.90 each. Not sure what the difference is though, maybe you could enlighten us?
Also for further reference: PM #5111 Dressage is RM86 PM #4870 Knight w. Cannon is RM43 PM #5186 Police Helicopter w. LED Spotlight is RM190
And when i asked the owner who the supplier was she just said the stock came from SG!
My own recollection of growing up with Playmobil in the early 70's was that they were fun to play with until the advent of Star Wars and the start of the growth of 3 3/4" figures.
Hope that helps

Bro, how did your trip down to KL go? While you were up in KL i was down in SG and enjoying the sales at Takashimaya! 30% off my Mega Blok Halo's! Woot! And they had a huge PlayMo selection, at least by MY standards!
