Set 5040 -Zwarte Pieten- out now in Holland!
« on: October 04, 2012, 10:20:22 »
Hi there! Yesterday I found the set 5040 in the toy store.. probably a Holland's exclusive

pic 1: Looks good! The torsos are all different and so are the gloves, hats, collars and shoulder caps
pic 2: the contents
pic 3: actually, it's a pretty big box for what it contains...
pic 4: Very nice, lots of useful parts. Ethnic heads with red lips: can be used for women! Hey, after a closer look I see
          the 'Hoofdpiet' (the leader, Santa's right hand, the one with the cape) has no buckles on his shoes (on the box
          he does!)

Very nice set with beautiful parts. I paid E 9,99 for it. Can people outside the Netherlands buy it on DS?

Kind Regards,  Lynx

Looks like a cool set! I doubt we will get it here because it's presumably some cultural reference we don't have here.

Just checked out Playmobil.nl, (dutch site) and it is available at DS already. For E 8.99 (probably taxes not included).

Yes, Hadoque already reminded me it's a Benelux exclusive, not just Dutch exclusive.
Have you seen is Willem van Oranje yet in the customs gallery (with a nice history class from us both?)
Greetz from that other diamond city... ;)

That must be New York or Amsterdam. :)

Just checked out the Oranje custom. Impressive use of these clickies.
