It was good while it lasted, though the OP in the original thread mentions a possible reissue of the Steck barn???

Did they release all the old houses? I'm not even sure what I bought and have in storage.

Also a pity for the old Merry Men reissues. But oh well.

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

It's meant to be a classroom, like 4326 Werkunterricht ("translated" Woodshop Class).

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

More like: more of the same. The map was already in 5941. I stand corrected.

Best wishes

I stand (or actually lie down at the moment) corrected on the workshop.

The dwarf king has the wrong sword belt - the sword is hanging down next to his foot. It looks silly.

The gladiators are all mishmash retreads - nothing really novel, though I like Lionman's new shield.

Overall the sets look clean and classic, not much "X-TREEM" tomfoolishness.  :paddy:

I get the impression from the set numbers and pictures that these are all the totally new sets for the year. They often bring back old sets under old set numbers as well. The red house from this year is the old 7785 number still. So I have not given up all hope of reissued older sets. We need to see the actual catalog pages to know what's really in and out this year.

True.  And also to see what to concentrate on buying here... priorities..

I do hope there is still some "classic editions" - these existed LONG before the pcc..

Yep since late the late 1990's at least!

I'd like to see a reissue of the white steck house with the brown window frames. They redid the green windows for the tailor but used the black frames from existing sets.

The yellow and black dressed ladies seem to keep popping up from Malta on eBay - surely these must be from a DS set?

Could be, but could also be reissued Funpark Give-aways, klickies for the Quick-restaurants, etc.
