:o browsing through all tha regional playmobil official sites, i found this not-so-new schooner in playmobil.es
8} it is numbered 3900 and it just looks like the "old" 3174 rotes seerauberschiff (red pirate ship) from 2003 (5733 in u.s.).
:hmm: is the demand for this set so big in spain that they are re-releasing it?
:hmm: are they taking over all the 2003 un-sold schooners from all-over the world and putting them in new boxes with a new number?
the playmobil world is becoming a little intriguing...
-
We have shelves full of unselled pirate ships, we don't understand this new set, because kids likes police, fireman, and knights....
-
I wonder if the contents have changed slightly, like a new safety harpoon cannon, so it needs a new set number The picture is the same, but maybe they just didn't want to do a new one for a small change.
I've passed over a few of these schooners, lovely as they are, as I only need the two I have.

Martin's wife was looking over his shoulder while he was writing.

Me: Look dear I found another crusader blister at Target!
Her: Don't you already have a crusader? There are 2 in the blister, what are you going to do with the extra one?

You think you've got problems? Watch me try to explain to my wonderful :love: (:hmm: WIFE) about why my Playmbil City Fire Department keeps growing!
Wife; How many of those do you already have? :hmm:
Me; I give up, how many? ::)
Wife; No, I'm asking how many you already have of that particular set? ???
Me; Like I said, I don't know, I haven't taken inventory lately. :-\
Wife; I give up! :hissyfit:
Me; OK ;D

:lol: Now I will never let here see this tread . she might start a "Stop the Playmonuts" site and petition the help of all the other wife's :lol:
I have found if i keep all the sets out it creates a sort of confusion as to what there was and what is new 8}

My wife understands me entirely (most of the time) and it's great!
Truth is I have a very good reason to slow the growth of my collection; we're making plans to move home in a few years, and the bigger the collection, the more it'll cost me to move it.

Visual1971 :wow: from klickywelt just saw this "new" 3900 set on sale and took a picture of it.
it looks exactly like the 3174 rotes seerauberschiff from 2003 with no apparent slight variations. :yup:
it is now also on sale in the regional playmobil sites of france and u.k..
such a waste of energy from geobra i can't undestand. 8}
could it be that they have a huge surplus of the original 3174 or the "bigger" 3133 sets? :hmm:

I've seen this schooner in my local TRU but haven't been tempted.
I have two, both second hand off eBay and requiring some replacement parts which I got through spares.
A 3055 schooner might tempt me to a purchase.
