Playmobile 9550
I will give sorting the house out as an excuse for assembling our (Um, Sonny B's) vintage Playmobil 3550 Pirate Ship. I did not mean to spend two hours sorting the parts out, but I really did want to put it up somewhere as I am feeling ship-shape today. LOL The front sail is missing, HORRORS! I can get a new set on eBay... Is that stupid? The thing was expensive enough that I cannot imagine that we did not put all the parts into the box. Oh, the instructions are missing, too. I will just have to figure out the rigging myself.
Later - I was able to make a satisfactory sail by starching some material from the 100 Yen Shop. There is a wheel missing from the bottom which makes the ship unstable, so I bought one in France. eBay is a terribly wonderful place!
