I found this being thrown out on my route. It is part of a Playmobil "Pirates' Secret Camp" playset from 1991 as indicated on the underside. It is missing a ton of parts but will make a nice base for a fantasy diorama.

That's a great salvage job. Those Playmobil bases are a quick and effective way to get landscape. We love Playmobil at our house!

I got this island, too and remember having hours of fun playing  with it. That's a nice find! If anyone is interested, playmobil also release a book with all teir sets released. Online archives are also available.
And the best part is that you can get replacement parts even for old sets at their customer service!

playmobil is my all time favorite toy!

Today's haul!

Burlington- "Jurassic World:Dominion" set.
Gamestop- "Fortnite" and "Star Wars"
Gift Shop (discount store in Paterson)- vinyl dinos
Michael's- Halloween decoration

Everything was insanely cheap! Gamestop is still doing their "take 50% off of clearance" sale. Burlington had the "Jurassic World" set for half of Walmart's price. Michael's is having a 60% Halloween sale.

The vinyl dinos are high quality knock-offs of Safari Ltd. (Feathered T-Rex), Schleich (feathered Therizinosaurus) and Papo (pterosaur) and were only $2.99 each (originals go for $25-$35 depending on size). I bought all that they had of these figurines (the rest were really common species and knock-offs of lesser quality).

Saturday Mail Call and Gamestop clearance score!

My Amazon package ("Fortnite" figures and Papo Kraken) arrived and I picked up Baraka at the Gamestop in Lodi.

Baraka looks like he is missing his arm blades, but I am hoping that they are inside the package somewhere, if they aren't, it is no big deal as I wasn't going to use them for him anyway as he will be used as a Troll for my 1/18 fantasy customs.
