Interesting to see the modern fire brigade helmet and brown uniform appear.  I'll have to buy some of those and spare helmets for some of my current firefighters.

9802, the hose drying tower is a bit specialist but will no doubt sell well in Germany. 9803, fire station doors, will please those who want to update their fire stations to the latest design.

9804 looks to have some sort of insert in the recycling skip to hold the flames and it looks as if the hose propels "water".

The two tone axe is a nice and long overdue addition rather than the all red or all silver version.

A lot of good scenery items. I love the fawn/ doe sitting in set 9817

Not part of what I collect but that green troll in set 6593 looks amazing. My kind of troll, tall and dumb looking. :love:

The tree with swing in set 6575 will come in handing for a western country farm front yard.

Dwarf army building sets are definitely cool. The fat single one (6587) has a great body. :love:

Fat ghost pirate 6591 is also adorable - should we believe that the theme is making a return?

Change of attitude in the classroom 9810: map of North America! 8}

Also looking forward to the bus stop 9813: I have a train platform 4304 without roof, which I can now hope to complete.

Great stuff, I'm thrilled.

Best wishes

Are they no reissues of classic sets this time around?  :hmm:

I was hoping that the re-issues would continue even though they closed the PCC, but maybe I was being optimistic....

Not a single medieval set.
Looks like they're going to focus on dwarves and fairies instead.

Some interesting things there, three new shields. Not really any new animals I think, all reissues it seems.
I like the dark green troll but why oh why isn't the other one red?? It's such an obvious choice I just don't understand why they haven't done it yet.
I like the bus stop, could use a few of those.
The new multiplay figures seem pretty boring to me.
The large camping grill is nice to see again as are some of the scenery pieces.
Kind of love the dumpster fire.
Happy to see the jade skull again, I liked that part and wanted more but didn't really have any extra of the figure at the time.
The safari jeep is a great color.
Nice to see the beehive again, that never made it to some export markets so hopefully now it will.

Thanks for the news and the link.  :)

Hmm... Not much I´m interested in.
These DS dwarfs aren´t that attractive to me, they don´t have useful parts for Renaissance-era customising.
The Ghost-Pirates are back, a little updated.  Maybe it´s Salazar ´s revenge?

And - as I feared they would do after the PCC closure - they seem to have shutdown the re-relase line of classic sets, unless some important pics are not public yet.

Resistance is futile, you will be boarded!

9804 - Who puts an electric drill in a children's playroom?

The dwarf king shouldn't have bare arms I think

Kind of love the dumpster fire.
